The Buffalo Bills have a lot of talent in their front seven.
Ed Oliver earned himself a hefty four-year, $68 million contract extension ahead of the 2023 season, and Buffalo also re-signed A.J. Epenesa, who is coming off two straight 6.5 sack seasons.
Buffalo also re-signed veteran DaQuan Jones to a two-year contract worth up to $16 million, and Jones himself spoke on his aspirations for this season.
"All-Pro is my mindset," Jones said to Matt Bove WKBW. "Everyone is like, have you ever been All-Pro? I’m like no, I haven’t, but in year 11 I’m trying to go All-Pro, and just keep trying to push myself to play at a high level, compete with these guys, and make sure I’m holding my part so guys like Ed Oliver, AJ Epenesa, and Greg Rousseau can all go out there and do their job.”
Jones missed 10 games in 2023 with injury, the first season in which he didn't play at 16 games since 2017. He is one of several defensive game-changing talents on the Bills' roster. An All-Pro season for Jones could also lead to Buffalo playing deep into January.
