The Buffalo Bills have a very good roster, despite their loss to the New York Jets this is still true. Not every week Josh Allen is going to go out and have four turnovers (we hope).

However, with eyes set on the future, Buffalo could make a huge splash by bringing in not one, but two All-Pro players, and Vegas likes their odds. Once again, the Buffalo Bills are tied to some of the biggest names in the NFL. We like to call it the Josh Allen effect.

Now before you get excited, this song and dance has happened before. From Saquon Barkley to Antonio Brown. From Zach Ertz to J.J. Watt and even more recently, DeAndre Hopkins. It appears every year the Buffalo Bills are tied to yet another big name.

With all that being said, Buffalo is at the top or near the top of the Vegas odds to land Tampa Bay Buccanneers WR Mike Evans and Tennessee Titans RB Derrick Henry, two dominant All-Pro players who could add a spark to the already potent Buffalo offense. Now, first things first, the salary cap isn't real. We need to address that as Buffalo doesn't have the capital to bring these guys in.

BetOnline has Buffalo with the best odds to land Henry if he were to leave the Tennessee Titans with a 2/1 odds. For Mike Evans, Buffalo has the second-best odds at 3/1 behind the Kansas City Chiefs. It wasn't just these two All-Pros that Buffalo is tied to either. The Bills have the second-best odds to land Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins if he were to leave his team at 4/1 and the fifth-best odds to land Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor if he were to leave the team at 6/1.

We understand that James Cook is our guy and we want to give him as many carries as possible. The same can be said about Gabe Davis in the offense, he has the potential to be a star and we don't want to take anything away from him. With all of that being said, could you imagine an offense with any of these guys mentioned above?

Yes, the offensive line needs to be better, but we're out here just after week 1 thinking about an offense that has Josh Allen, Stefon Diggs, Mike Evans, Derrick Henry, and Dalton Kincaid. To put it plainly, it would be scary.

Like we said, this is just wishful thinking and Vegas has had Buffalo as betting favorites in the past and it hasn't worked out. For now, it gives us a reason to forget about the ugly Jets game and imagine how easy waltzing into the Super Bowl would be with the best offense in the entire league.
