The Buffalo Bills are facing scrutiny following their offseason decisions despite their strong performance last year, where Josh Allen won his first MVP. The team's choice to focus primarily on defense during the 2025 NFL Draft, largely neglecting to add a top-tier wide receiver, has raised eyebrows among fans and analysts. General Manager Brandon Beane, responding to criticism, pointed out that the team finished second in scoring last season, even without a true No. 1 receiver. However, the absence of a standout pass catcher may have hindered their playoff success.

While the Bills believe their offense can improve without significant new additions, concerns linger over their ability to secure crucial plays in high-stakes situations. The emphasis on bolstering the defense, including early draft picks like cornerback Maxwell Hairston, reflects a strategic shift. Beane's confidence in the existing offensive unit raises questions about the team's future playoff viability, especially with the looming pressure to secure a Super Bowl win.
