3 potential Bills trade candidates entering 2024 training camp
Would the Bills consider dealing this former All-Pro?
It seems like the Buffalo Bills have lived as a team on the edge for several seasons. Just one more step and they will reach the Super Bowl. Another chance rolls around in 2024, and roster tweaks may lead the Bills to look for possible trade candidates entering the 2024 training camp season.
Keeping in mind that the idea is trade candidate — and not a player the team needs to, or should trade — edge rusher Von Miller tops the list. Joining Miller are tight end Dawson Knox and linebacker Nicholas Morrow.
First, let’s set the main reasons for considering a trade of Miller. He’s 35 years old, coming off a sub-par season, and the goal is to win the Super Bowl.
