Joe Marino Author

Debut author Joe Marino grew up in Grand Island, New York, before moving to Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1997. He began following the Buffalo Bills as soon as he understood the game of football. His early childhood included the Bills’ four consecutive Super Bowl appearances. 

Joe proudly attended Weddington High School and pursued his college education at Wingate University. After a decade spent in business management and six years of freelance work in football media, he began covering the Buffalo Bills, the NFL, and the NFL Draft full-time in 2018. 

Joe is the host of the Locked on Bills podcast, co-host of the Draft Dudes podcast, and Senior NFL Draft Analyst for The Draft Network. He lives in Concord, North Carolina, with his wife, daughter, and three dogs—but he returns to Buffalo as many times as possible each season to cheer on his beloved Bills.
