NFL analyst Warren Sharp listed Buffalo in his top-five easiest schedules heading into 2025. Based on projected win totals, Sharp and his team listed the Bills at No. 5, trailing the 49ers, Patriots, Saints, and Falcons.

Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane spent the vast majority of the offseason upgrading the team’s defense. Free-agent signing Joey Bosa and first-round draft pick Maxwell Hairston headlined the new arrivals.

It doesn’t mean the Bills are fully formed, nor does it mean they can’t be better in certain areas than they were in 2024. Clearly, the way they approached free agency and the draft, no one at One Bills Drive was satisfied with the way the defense performed last year and so fortifications have been made.
