On the latest episode of the Billieve Podcast, hosts John Boccacino and Jamie D’Amico continue their offseason State of the Bills series of podcasts by breaking down and reviewing the contributions the Bills got from their cornerbacks in 2020.

The Bills brought back almost every starter from the team that went 13-3 and advanced into the AFC Championship. Arguably the one starting role up for grabs is opposite All Pro Tre’Davious White, who anchors the cornerback position. White has evolved into one of the game’s best cornerbacks, and excels playing man coverage on both fast wide receivers and talented tight ends. He’s the perfect cornerback for this defense, as he is proficient in both man and zone coverages. He is also impressive in press coverage and has become one of the best lockdown CBs in the game.

Former undrafted rookie free agent Levi Wallace, who was brought back on a one-year, $1.75 million contract after starting 12 games last year, is in line to start at CB2. Wallace is a slightly above average, serviceable option. He is a solid and instinctual zone corner who thrives in Buffalo’s zone-heavy scheme while also getting beat off the line of scrimmage.

We make the case why general manager Brandon Beane should seriously consider drafting a talent like Asante Samuel Jr. (Florida State), Eric Stokes (Georgia), Greg Newsome II (Northwestern) or Caleb Farley (Virginia Tech) with the No. 30 overall pick in the NFL Draft to, at the very least, bring in a capable playmaker who can push Wallace for the starting job.

When it comes to the rest of Buffalo’s cornerbacks, we discuss the potential of nickel CB Taron Johnson, who is a fantastic tackler and asset in the run defense, a solid cover corner who plays with aggression and tenacity in the slot. We speculate on whether he truly learned from his Week 6 benching, when he responded with a solid second half of the year, or whether he will revert back to his up-and-down form over the first five weeks.

We also assess whether Dane Jackson, who has impressed in limited playing time, can one day slide in as Buffalo’s starting CB2, break down the play of rookie Cam Lewis, discuss whether Siran Neal is solely a special teams contributor or if he can help out in the secondary, and more.

Player after player that continue to develop, has the national media starting to finally notice that Buffalo can draft better than most teams in the league.

On this episode of "The Bruce Exclusive", Bruce outlines how many different acquisitions can fill needs for the Buffalo Bills because the term "need" is broader than we think. Different types of needs can occur at different times and each has it's own value and weight.

On the latest episode of the Billieve Podcast, hosts John Boccacino and Jamie D’Amico continue their offseason State of the Bills series of podcasts by breaking down and reviewing the contributions the Bills got from their linebackers in 2020.

When the dust had settled on Buffalo's 2020 season, most Bills fans expected that outside linebacker Matt Milano would test free agency, but in arguably the biggest offseason move made by general manager Brandon Beane, the two sides agreed to a team-friendly, four-year deal worth $44 million ($24 million guaranteed). Locking up Milano gives the Bills stability at the outside linebacker position, and ensures that one of the best cover linebackers returns to Western New York for 2021.

We dissect how strong this unit was when both Milano and middle linebacker Tremaine Edmunds were on the field at the same time (the Bills were a perfect 10-0 in the regular season when both Milano and Edmunds played), which is important given how much the Bills rely on their top two linebackers. We analyze what Milano brings to the table as one of the Bills best defensive players, put to bed the myth that Milano is injury-prone, and discuss why Milano thrives in Leslie Frazier's defense.

We also put Edmunds' season under the microscope to see whether he deserves the criticism he's received from fans. Edmunds, a natural athlete, has shown himself to be more than capable of playing both man and zone coverage and he's an above-average blitzer who, at age 23, should be just scratching the surface of his potential. We explore how the return of Star Lotulelei could help free up Edmunds to make more plays, and explore whether the team should exercise the fifth-year option on Edmunds.

We address how A.J. Klein became a good blitzer (while remaining a liability in pass coverage), break down what Tyrel Dodson brings to the linebackers, explain why Tyler Matakevich is solely a special teams contributor, share how free agent Tyrell Adams could be poised to build upon his 2020 breakthrough season, and discuss how Beane should be applauded for bringing in plenty of competent depth at linebacker.
