Ranking Brandon Beane's Free Agent Classes

Ranking Brandon Beane's Free Agent Classes

Author: Blue Wire March 30, 2026 Duration: 1:43:16

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens to discuss several Buffalo Bills topics, including evaluating each of Brandon Beane's free agent classes since becoming GM of the team in 2018.

While not a fan of Beane in general, Joe has confessed to liking what the Bills have done so far since free agent season began earlier this month. It got the guys wondering and then researching of  Beane's offseason classes and where this one stacks up.

Also, the Bills re-signed Damar Hamlin this week and a few sarcastic tweets from Patrick set off a firestorm of criticism from the Damar truthers. Patrick responds to all of it.

Meanwhile, the somewhat slumping Buffalo Sabres won a shootout game against Seattle on Saturday that even if it actually wasn't----it felt like a "must win" type of game. The guys discuss it, where it feels the team is at as we get ready for the playoffs and much more.
