Plus, which defensive players seem poised to emerge in 2024?

The Buffalo Bills will see plenty of changes on offense in 2024, and not just because the team is looking to replace the productivity of wide receivers Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis.

Along the offensive line, the Bills are looking for two new starters as Connor McGovern is being counted on to step up and replace former stalwart center Mitch Morse, while McGovern’s left guard role will either be filled by David Edwards or La’el Collins.

Today’s edition of Buffalo Rumblinks leads off by previewing the state of Buffalo’s offensive line.

Previewing Buffalo’s offensive line

Last year, under new offensive line coach Aaron Kromer, Buffalo’s offensive line excelled in both pass and run protection, finishing sixth in the league in pass-block win rate and seventh in run-block win rate. Led by Pro Bowl left tackle Dion Dawkins, emerging right guard O’Cyrus Torrence and right tackle Spencer Brown and McGovern and either Edwards or Collins, there is a lot of talent in the trenches.
