Buffalo Rumblings Weekend Chat: How much do you pay attention to OTAs?

is Associate Director of NFL coverage for SB Nation and previously covered the Bills for Buffalo Rumblings for more than a decade.

Welcome back to our weekend chat, Buffalo Bills fans.

The Buffalo Bills are back in Orchard Park participating in organized team activities (OTAs), a fancy name for lifting weights, speed training, and some light work in helmets. There’s no contact and no full team work.

How much are you paying attention?

Each year, media pump up one or two players, say things like “XX is in the best shape of his career”, and sometimes it translates to the season and sometimes not.
