Biggest Bills Camp Takeaways So Far, Both Good & Bad

Biggest Bills Camp Takeaways So Far, Both Good & Bad

Author: Blue Wire July 31, 2025 Duration: 1:01:16

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by SB Nation to discuss their biggest Buffalo Bills training camp takeaways through the team's first six practices.

Patrick has been present in Rochester for the past three practices, meanwhile Warren was on the field with a media credential for the team's first practice in pads earlier in the week. Together they collaborate on what's impressed and discouraged them the most. Among the positives is the play of James Cook, Matt Milano and Tre White. Also there's been a lot of optimism at the top of the wide receiver room because Keon Coleman and Josh Palmer have both looked comfortable early on.

Conversely, injuries have been a huge (huge) blemish on Bills camp. The guys talk about several of them and how they've impacted what we've seen so far. Also, Patrick really isn't sold on how the Bills swing tackle competition has unfolded thus far, and a pair of fifth-round picks from a year ago are failing to find their footing in this camp.

They also discuss how the weather has been a factor this past week both for players and fans taking practice in as well. That plus Matt takes us between the ropes of covering the team as an accredited media member and much more.

Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red’s at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium. We consider them THE most underrated spot for wings, pizza and other great food in Western New York plus it’s a great place to drink and have a great time. Also big thanks to Imperial Pizza and their two locations (1035 Abbott Road and 1655 Main Street), home of not only great pizza and tons of other delicious eats but also the best everyday lunch special in town.
