Make Or Break Time For Brandon Beane Has Arrived

Make Or Break Time For Brandon Beane Has Arrived

Author: Blue Wire March 9, 2026 Duration: 1:43:31

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens to discuss how the time is now for Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane to pull the pin on at least a handful of moments that could determine if the Bills realistically remain in the Super Bowl hunt in addition to the Sabres winning one of their most exciting games in the history of the franchise literally right before this recording.

NFL free agency, or at least the "legal tampering period" starts here on Monday and the Bills certainly got a decent amount of holes to fill on the roster. A less than ideal amount of cap room coupled with a plethora of needs both with starters and depth will force Beane and his staff to be at his best starting today and over the next few months. The guys discuss some of those roster holes the Bills have to work on and what some solutions may ultimately lead to being.

They also react to a trio of big Bills news items that've went on over the past handful of days leading into the start of free agency: trading for DJ Moore, cutting cornerback Taron Johnson and re-signing center Connor McGovern over the weekend.

For fun, they also play a game of trying to guess the next team several of their recently released and pending free agent Bills end up with.

Of course, the Sabres remain steaming hot and won what could be argued as one of the greatest games in franchise history on Sunday night. The guys talk about them and much more.
