2 Key Offensive Players: Fred Jackson and Ryan Fitzpatrick. I need Fitzpatrick to make quick, precise throws. This is the first time I'm using F-Jax so his skill set determines if I bring in the rookie stud, Carlos Holmes.
2 Key Defensive Players: Marcel Dareus and Kyle Williams. These two guys will determine how the complimentary pieces do. If they can hold their own on the run then the swarm can close in. If they can provide consistent pressure then the outside can take advantage of the one on one match-ups.
Best Offseason Move: Trading for Mike Williams. It's been awhile since the Bills had a reliable WR opposite Steve Johnson and Williams brings that stability to the WR corp. The sting of losing Spiller is lessened by the drafting of Holmes.
