    Reaction To Big Bills Trade For DJ Moore

    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran has a bunch of reaction both good and bad to the Buffalo Bills pulling off a big trade on Thursday, acquiring wide receiver DJ Moore from the Chicago Bears along with a fifth-rounder in exchange for their second-round pick in this year's NFL Draft. To say the immediate reaction among Bills fans, media and content creators is a mixed bag is an understatement, and Patrick thinks there's plenty to like about the move as well as a few things that certainly give him pause. First and foremost, Moore immediately becomes the Bills best pass catching option in the intermediate to long yard situations and it's not close either. He comes to Buffalo with plenty of proven success as he turns 29 years old this week including four seasons of over 1,000 yards receiving. Two of those, by the way came with Bills head coach back when Brady was offensive coordinator in Carolina in 2020-21.  Also, while Moore may not be definition a "true No. 1" receiver, Patrick thinks more of his ability than had the Bills signed Romeo Doubs or Rashid Shaheed in free agency, who felt more like extensions of Curtis Samuel and Josh Palmer types. However, this isn't a win for the Bills without some issues. Giving up a second-round pick for a guy who's had consecutive down years feels risky, not to mention the guaranteed money they're giving him that essentially makes his contract a three-year deal worth $74 million that's pretty much all guaranteed now. Also, there's at least a handful of clips out there that show Moore's effort when not being targeted has been less than stellar in the past. That plus if Patrick feels this was the right deal to make, does Beane deserve praise or heat for this move and plenty more from the reaction department.

    Sabres Are ELECTRIC, Plus Should Bills Swing For Pierce?

    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Steve Bermel to talk about the Buffalo Sabres being absolutely electric on the ice that has clearly resonated with fans as well as discussing if the Buffalo Bills should take a big swing at pending free agent wide receiver Alec Pierce. The vibes were immaculate at the Key Bank Center in Buffalo the other night before the Sabres took on Vegas as Tage Thompson was honored by the organization for helping the United States win a gold medal. The crowd gave him a thunderous applause (as well as Jack Eichel) and the electricity carried over into the game, as Tage scored a goal and Buffalo would hold on to beat Vegas to win their fourth in a row since coming back from the Olympic break. The Sabres aren't slowing down and the league is noticing. More and more people are talking about the Sabres as not only a team poised to end their historic playoff drought but a team that can win multiple series in the playoffs. The guys talk about the team, the fans that have been yearning to have something to get behind again, trade rumors involving Buffalo and some prominent players around the league in advance of Friday's deadline and more. On the football side, it appears Pierce can test the open market if he chooses. The Bills certainly have limitations, at least that's the way Brandon Beane portrays it again, but in football you can always take a big swing if you really want to. Should the Bills use that on Pierce---a guy who will surely get overpaid in the open market but still fits the Bills biggest offensive need like a glove?  Also, it looks like the Bills are set to lose both David Edwards and Connor McGovern in free agency---how worried should we be about the offensive line? That and plenty more! Today’s episode is brought to you by the law offices of William Mattar. Hurt in a car, call William Mattar. 444-4444.

    Bills Non-WR Needs & Potential Solutions

    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren from SB Nation to discuss positional needs and potential solutions beyond wide receiver. Understandably so, the wide receiver position attracts the most attention among fans and the media. There's certainly a need to add to the position and Buffalo will, but there's plenty of room and need to add talent to several if not most other positions. The guys go through them, talk about needs are bigger than other and discuss a handful of potential pending free agents, trade candidates and draft prospects for each. Some positions, like edge rusher and safety seem pretty clear but others, such as offensive tackle and running back could be a bit more of a mystery. They also talk about what they're expecting to see from Buffalo in the coming weeks based on comments by Brandon Beane and Joe Brady. That plus the Sabres are going to make March even more fun and plenty more. Today’s episode is brought to you by the law offices of William Mattar. Hurt in a car, call William Mattar. 444-4444.

    Moving The Goalposts For Sabres Expectations

    On the episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by hockey writer and media personality Joe Yerdon to discuss among other topics if it's time to move the goalposts when it comes to managing the Buffalo Sabres' expectations. It's not a done yet but the Sabres find themselves in incredibly well position to end their historic 14-year playoff drought. Their 24-5-2 record over their past 31 games has them and us as consumers thinking that just ending the drought isn't the end of their story for this season. Joe gives insight on why Buffalo's primed not just to make the playoffs but potentially do some damage while in them. They also spend a time talking about an underrated reason why this team is turning their fortunes around---goaltending. UPL and especially Alex Lyon have paved the way for the Sabres winning ways to stay sustainable for a long stretch. Is Lyon the best unrestricted free agent signing of anyone in the league this past summer? Also, Mattias Samuelsson has been one of the remarkable turnaround stories we've seen on the Sabres in a long time. That plus Tage Thompson being honored, trade deadline buzz and much more.

    Is Brandon Beane Aggressive As He Thinks He Is?

    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens to discuss several Buffalo Bills topics, including examining if Brandon Beane is as aggressive as he thinks he is when it comes to roster construction and the draft. During the NFL Combine this week, Beane when speaking to the media described himself as being aggressive, sometimes even needing coworkers on the Bills staff to reel him back a little bit. Is that actually true? Is Beane really that aggressive? The guys dig into that and other than three instances since 2018 don't really agree with the Bills general manager. Also, a recurring theme emerging this offseason (again) seems to be Beane and new Bills head coach Joe Brady jumping in to talk about how much Josh Allen's contract effects the Bills. While that is indisputably true, there's plenty of other Beane roster decisions with bad contracts and/or dead cap hits that could wreck havoc on their chances to get some of the things done they're hoping for. The guys also wonder (sort of) if the Bills could take a look at Stefon Diggs if he ends up released by the New England Patriots. That plus the Buffalo Sabres are going scorched earth right now and more. Today’s episode is brought to you by the law offices of William Mattar. Hurt in a car, call William Mattar. 444-4444.

    Should The Bills Re-Sign Brandin Cooks? (Plus Four Bills Trade Candidates)

    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran examines if the Buffalo Bills should attempt to re-sign pending free agent wide receiver Brandin Cooks and explains why that answer is no, regardless of how cheap he'd be and what his role on paper would be. There's definitely reasons we can see a Cooks reunion with the club in 2026 and Patrick admits the reasons to feel like it works are more than why it wouldn't. From the inexpensive cap hit to his track record, skill set in particular his ability to get open plenty for Buffalo last year and to having a "lesser than" role in the wide receiver room going forward, there's plenty of justification on bringing him back. But Patrick lands on no and it's for one reason but a big one----you simply can't trust him. Cooks had major issues during his short time with Buffalo holding onto the football and completing catches, a major reason he had just 10 completions in 22 targets with the Bills. While you can say he'd be a bottom of the depth chart player and that seems harmless, the reality is when you're on the depth chart you're going to see the field, especially at wide receiver. When Cooks runs routes he tends to get open which means he'll get the football and that's where the problem lies--Patrick simply thinks you can't trust him to make the big play that could determine the outcome of a game or as we saw in the playoffs, literally the season.  For that reason alone Patrick thinks it's a bad idea to bring him back. Also, the Jets and Titans made a straight player for player trade on Thursday that got Patrick thinking of four current Bills players he could see as candidates for something similar happening. That and much more. Today’s episode is brought to you by the law offices of William Mattar. Hurt in a car, call William Mattar. 444-4444.

    Sabres Win In Return (Live Reaction), Plus Bills Combine Talk

    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Steve Bermel just moments after the Buffalo Sabres returned to action with a win over New Jersey following the Olympic break for instant reaction in addition to some Buffalo Bills talk from the NFL Combine. With 25 games to go and a five point lead in the Eastern Conference wild card race, the Sabres are trying to take advantage of the opportunity to end their historic 14-year NHL playoff drought. How did that final stretch begin in New Jersey? The guys break it down. Also this week has been the NFL Combine with prospects rising and falling down draft boards based on how they interview with teams in Indianapolis and look on the field in drills. Do the guys think the Combine is significantly an overrated event? The guys have thoughts on that, what Joe Brady and Brandon told the media earlier this week and much more.

    Five Potential Bills Diamonds In The Rough

    On today's Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren from SB Nation to discuss among other topics five Buffalo Bills players who could become diamonds in the rough for the organization. For various reasons Dorian Williams, Jordan Hancock, Alec Anderson, Seth Van Pran Granger and Jackson Hawes could all have an opportunity to go from supporting type players to contributing far more than they did this past season. The guys discuss what the situation looks like for each player and why this group could be primed to take a significant step in their careers during the 2026 season. From there they get into discussing what's been discussed the most the past few offseasons and surely headed that way again---wide receiver. Patrick runs down eight potential wide receiver fits for the Bills that could come via free agency or trade and tasks Matt with ranking his interest on each from a scale of 1-10 while factoring in fit, salary and potential trade comp. Names on the list they go through include Mike Evans, Rashid Shaheed, Jauan Jennings, DJ Moore, AJ Brown, Brian Thomas Jr, Jaylen Waddle and Michael Pittman Jr. That plus it's NFL Combine week, free agency will be here before you know it and much more.
