Buffalo Bills

The Bills remain one of the safest fantasy offenses in football because Josh Allen is still the centerpiece, and the 2026 outlook starts with his elite rushing floor and red-zone usage. Recent fantasy previews still project him as the first quarterback off the board in most leagues, with a realistic path to another 4,500-yard, 40-touchdown season if the passing game stays efficient around him.

At wide receiver, Khalil Shakir looks like the most stable Buffalo target, but his fantasy profile is more useful than flashy after his four-year, $60.2 million extension in 2025 and the team’s continued preference to spread the ball around. That keeps him in the WR4/WR5 range in many drafts rather than as a weekly ceiling play, while the rest of the receiver room is more about matchup-based streaming than set-and-forget reliability.

Tight end is the swing spot for Buffalo fantasy managers, and Dalton Kincaid is the player most likely to move the needle if he stays healthy. He has shown growth when available, but recent outlooks also note that injuries have made managers cautious, so he profiles as a talented but somewhat volatile TE1/TE2 option rather than a fully bankable star. On the ground, the Bills still want to lean on their quarterback near the goal line, which limits the ceiling for the backfield in general and keeps Buffalo’s rushing value concentrated more in Allen than in a workhorse running back.

The biggest offseason changes matter mostly for the line and defense, but they can still affect fantasy efficiency: center Connor McGovern got extended, while David Edwards left in free agency and Alabama-style depth questions remain up front. Buffalo also lost several defenders in free agency, including Joey Bosa, A.J. Epenesa, Matt Milano, DaQuan Jones, and others listed as departures, which may push the team toward a more offense-heavy script in 2026 if the defense regresses. For fantasy drafters, the Bills are once again a team to target with confidence at quarterback and, at a more cautious price, at tight end and secondary receiver spots.
