A Forbes magazine analysis recently pegged the worth of the Buffalo Bills at $870 million, but the bids reportedly received Tuesday seem to relegate that previous estimate to mere chump change.

The New York Post reported that Sabres owner Terry Pegula has offered more than $1 billion for the team, while Business First pegs his offer at $1.3 billion.

City News of Toronto, meanwhile, said the Canadian group headed by Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment executive Larry Tannenbaum and fronted by rock star Jon Bon Jovi could be as high as $1.2 billion.

Manhattan real estate mogul Donald Trump told The Buffalo News through a spokesman that he also bid on the team, offering a “respectable number.”
