| The Bills had a middle of the pack defense last season. They had so-so numbers across the board, but if they excelled in one area it was touchdowns. The Bills scored five defensive/special teams touchdowns last season. Their defense is led by linebacker Paul Posluszny. He just makes plays, totaling more than 100 tackles his first full season in the league. The Bills need a healthy and productive Aaron Schobel, though, if this defense gets better this season. Schobel is their best pass rusher and needs to return to past form.
Tackle Marcus Stroud does a good job stuffing the run. The Bills have some playmakers in the secondary, but these guys also will give up some big plays. Terrance McGee and Leodis McKelvin are solid corners that will take some chances and make big plays. The Bill have a great return game, scoring two return touchdowns last season. Roscoe Parrish remains one of the top punt return men in the game, averaging 15.3 yards per return last season. McKelvin does the damage on kick returns, averaging a robust 28.2 yards per return last season.

The Bills are a good option in straight touchdown leagues, but for leagues that penalize for yards and points scored, they are an iffy option. Buffalo will get some sacks and interceptions, though, making them worth a look as a platoon defense. They have some upside in the right matchups. |
