5) LeSean McCoy 

McCoy’s first season with the Bills was a forgettable one. The veteran tailback missed four games because of injury and rushed for just 895 yards, his lowest total since 2012.

However, everyone knows McCoy is capable of much more. If the Bills are going to repeat as league rushing champs (and running is definitely the DNA of this offence) they will need Shady to regain the brilliance he showed while playing in Philadelphia.

McCoy’s importance becomes even more apparent, with sophomore stud Karlos Williams out for the first four games of the regular season. No doubt the Bills would also like to see some return on the contract they gave the 8th-year player, which made him the league’s second-highest paid running back.
