Plus, how will Devin Singletary and Zack Moss split carries in the backfield?

In today’s edition of the Buffalo Bills daily links, we dissect the NFL’s annual Top 100 players list heading into the 2020 season. The Bills landed three players on the list, which was voted on with input from nearly 1,000 players across the league, with quarterback Josh Allen making his debut on the Top 100 list. The other two Bills to make the list have not yet been announced but the rest of the Top 100 will be revealed during the week.

We also put Allen under the microscope to see if Buffalo’s third-year starting quarterback can continue his development and take the next leap towards stardom in 2020. With training camp set to begin Tuesday, we run down the Bills’ 88-man roster, analyze the two different roster options facing general manager Brandon Beane and head coach Sean McDermott heading into camp, predict which players will wind up on the expanded practice squad, speculate how Devin Singletary and rookie Zack Moss will split carries this year, break down how the new CBA between the league and the players association will address player safety and affect training camp during the coronavirus, and much more!

Each July, the NFL 100 is released. It’s the top 100 players in the NFL as voted on by players, who rank their favorites and the scores are tabulated. The 2020 list includes Buffalo Bills QB, Josh Allen, who comes in at spot 87. CONGRATS JOSH!

Allen’s impressive performance on Thanksgiving had to make an impact on his fellow NFL players and is featured prominently in the video celebrating Allen’s season. They circled back to highlight his 4th and 1 conversion off the fumbled snap with announcers Jim Nantz and Tony Romo marveling at the determination it took.

His rushing touchdowns were highlighted, as he led NFL QBs in the stat, and he was third in rushing yards from the QB position. Jets linebacker Blake Cashman said he was “very difficult to bring down” and praised his dual-threat ability.

Lastly, Allen’s propensity to play his best in the final quarter was also discussed, as he led the NFL in fourth-quarter comebacks and game-winning drives.

No Bills made the list last year (a travesty) but three Bills will be on the NFL 100 in 2020 according to the NFL’s press release.

thats pretty huge. i would not have expected it

shows you how much respect he demands on the field. leading the league in game winning drives had to be a big part

[Victor7 89,737]

My man!

 

Some things he does just don't show up on the stat sheet and his peers are starting to notice. 

 

Now that doesn't mean we don't more improvement. But this is a very good sign for Allen. 

[SackMan518 4,881]

It means a lot more because it comes from his peers.
