2016 NFL free agency begins at 4:00 p.m. ET this afternoon. The Buffalo Bills have already had a busy offseason, as you can see below, but they are not expected to be overly active in the beginning stages of free agency due to their salary cap restraints.
This Bills free agency tracker will be constantly updated as free agency begins, and is designed to give us a comprehensive overview of what the Bills have already accomplished this offseason, as well as how many loose ends still need to be tied up. Bookmark it. We'll be working hard to make sure you reference it often.
