2 roto titles · 57 seasons (1970–2026)
Twice in 57 seasons, the Buffalo Bills have finished a season as Roto Champ, the last of them in 1991. All of them came by 1991, and the franchise has not topped the standings in the 34 seasons since. Their average finish is 15.4 all time, against 13.2 over the last ten seasons, so the recent decade has been the better one.
The best single roto season in franchise history belongs to O.J. Simpson in 1975, worth a 4.5 z-score. Josh Allen is the franchise’s most persistent roto presence, owning 7 of its 50 best seasons. The All-Franchise Team below is strictly positional, which is hard on Tyrod Taylor, Ryan Fitzpatrick and Jim Braxton: each rates above somebody who made a team, but every slot at their position was already spoken for.
