ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — The Buffalo Bills have three of their 12 draft picks left to sign after agreeing to a deal Friday with tackle Jonas Jennings.

Still unsigned are Buffalo’s top three selections, including first-rounder Nate Clements.

‘ESPN’s Chris Mortensen discussing Antowain Smith and the loss of Ted Cotrell.’

‘[Tyrone] Robertson, the kid who had passed through so much fire, is now a man who feels blessed to be even in this position. It seems as if he’s lived a hundred lives to get here, often times experiencing more than his 21 years would suggest.’

‘Morris also said he feels that there is a new sense of urgency this season when asked about the new coaching staff. When questioned about the differences in coaching styles, Morris said Coach Williams is more vocal and hands-on then his predecessor Wade Phillips, who, as Morris put it, was "more laid back."’

It’s a disgrace that he (Thurman) wasn’t the game’s MVP. I was a selector then, & I tried to convince the dim bulbs who were my fellow selectors who kept mumbling that you had to vote for a guy on the winning team that Thomas had twice the game that Anderson did. In fact, I bitched so long and so loud that I was never again a selector.
