The Buffalo Bills uncharacteristically made a big splash this offseason in terms of free agent signings.

If the Buffalo Bills can get a breakout season from a few key players, they can finish what they started last season and what has continued into the offseason. They were a breakout team in 2011 until a rash of injuries and a confluence of other circumstances led to a 1-8 finish to their season. Staying healthy will be a good start.
