The Buffalo Bills’ team-building strategy under the direction of general manager Brandon Beane around training camp has become somewhat of a trend. Step one: sign a bevy of low-cost veterans to short term contracts and create competition. Step two: The loser of the competition gets traded for low-round draft picks. This strategy not only ensures that the team has competition at most positions, but that the team can rely on having more than the seven draft picks teams usually posses. Beane himself is somehow able to get value on these trades. Just last summer, he was able to trade Eli Harold for Ryan Bates, Wyatt Teller for a fifth- and a sixth-round pick, and Russell Bodine for a sixth rounder.
