Buffalo Bills

Projected Cap Space: $18,185,833

Biggest Need: Right Tackle

A lot of this is predicated on how the Buffalo Bills handle the situation at quarterback with Tyrod Taylor.

Head coach Sean McDermott noted the team is keeping its options open here. But if Taylor leaves, the QB position suddenly becomes a glaring void. Assuming Taylor stays for now, the Bills would be wise to make an upgrade at right tackle.

Incumbent Jordan Mills was a major disappointment last year, so look for Buffalo to solve this one spot via NFL free agency.

Mike Remmers, formerly of the Carolina Panthers, might be an idea here to at least provide some better protection this season in also what looks like a weak NFL Draft class at the position.
