Buffalo adds developmental guard depth with family connection to franchise history. Headlines emphasize bloodline legacy over NFL pedigree, suggesting modest prospect. Rookie camp invite indicates below-average NFL experience, not established contributor. Fans debate whether nepotism or talent drove the signing decision. Fina projects as practice squad depth unless he impresses drastically.

Bruno Fina's three-year, $3.1M deal with the Buffalo Bills — working out to roughly $1M AAV — earns a C+ Contract Value Index (CVI), landing it squarely in fair-deal territory with modest upside rather than a genuine steal. At the guard position, Fina profiles as a roster-depth piece rather than a plug-and-play starter, and at that price point Buffalo is essentially paying for developmental optionality or emergency insurance along the interior offensive line. The $1.03M AAV sits near the league minimum threshold, which keeps the cap risk negligible and gives the Bills flexibility to move on without meaningful financial consequence if he fails to earn a roster spot. What holds the CVI back from a stronger grade is the combination of limited guaranteed money — which the data leaves unspecified, itself a signal that protections were minimal — and the three-year length on a player who hasn't demonstrated the kind of floor that warrants locking in that commitment. For a team sitting at 12-5 entering the offseason phase, adding low-cost depth along the offensive line is a reasonable roster-building move, but this deal offers little in the way of projected performance upside to push it into surplus-value range. It's a sensible, low-stakes addition that reflects front office pragmatism more than shrewd asset acquisition.
