State of the Buffalo Bills roster, defensive ends: alright for now

The Buffalo Bills improved their pass rush in 2018, even though they still ranked in the bottom half of the NFL in the category. In 2017, the Bills had only 27 sacks, which tied them with the New York Giants for the third-lowest total in the league. This season, that total increased to 36 sacks overall, which moved them from 30th to 26th overall.

Why, then, would we suggest that the team is alright for now at the position? A pass rush is not all about sacks, as Buffalo’s top defensive end showed during the season.
