Welcome, Buffalo Bills fans, to 2015 NFL free agency! The event that many refer to as the "legal tampering period," in which NFL teams can begin contacting the representatives of free agents from other teams, began as this post was published on March 7, and free agency is now in full swing.
In an effort to both catch you up on the Bills' busy offseason thus far, and to provide a one-stop post for you to talk about everything we're about to hear henceforth, this is our Bills free agency tracker. It's a streamlined, organized place for you to get a constantly-updated, comprehensive view of what's been happening with your favorite football team this offseason. We'll have our usual in-depth coverage of all the moves on our homepage (and in our full offseason StoryStream), but this place is meant to be a bare-bones look at everything.
