QB - Better. A healthy EJ Manuel entering his second year with a full training camp and 5 preseason games makes for a better quarterback, especially with Sammy Watkins.
OL - Better. Seantrel Henderson is playing like a first round draft pick, Cordy Glenn is healthy, and the days of Legursky and Urbik at guard are over.
ST - Better. Danny Crossman didn't have much experience to work with last year after a coaching turnover. If Hopkins can stay healthy, he won't have to worry. I hope Hopkins makes the roster. Return coverage has looked much better in the preseason. Didn't the Bills get torched for 2 TD's in the preseason last year? Most Valuable Punter: Brian Moorman. Shawn Powell is not on the roster.
DL - Better. A lot better. More depth than I thought. The DL is the major strength of the Buffalo Bills.
LB - Better. Brandon Spikes, Keith Rivers and Preston Brown have been good additions. Nigel Bradham isn't Kiko, but he might be better against the run.
CB - Not Better. McKelvin had offseason hip surgery, and recently injured his groin. Gilmore got beat for 2 TD's in the last 2 preseason games.
Corey Graham was a good addition to the secondary, and Nickell Robey will be entering his second year as a pro, but I'm worried about the starting 2 cornerbacks.
Looks like Donnie Henderson has his work cut out for him once again.
S - Better. Aaron Williams is going to have a Pro Bowl season imho.
Williams has had more big hits this preseason than I've seen Jairus Byrd make in his entire career as a Buffalo Bill. Not only is Williams more of a leader on defense, he likes to hit and doesn't have tender toes.
WR - Better. Sammy Watkins and Mike Williams have already proven how much better the Bills are at the position.
TE - Equal. Same as last year. Not better, not worse.
RB - Better. Spiller is healthy and playing for a huge contract, Boobie and Bryce are competing against Jackson and looking good. They both know how to block too.
Coaching - Better. Any coaching staff in their second year has an advantage over their first season.
Doug Marrone isn't acting like a rookie coach anymore. He's setting the tone, and I like it.
The Buffalo Bills should be better than 6-10.
If not, heads will roll.
