By any measure, it had already been a remarkable offseason for the Bills.
Fresh from a 3-13 disaster, they had lost LB Cowart to Jets via free agency, and injury-plagued QB RJ was exposed to Houston and then waived.
But before Bills’ fans could slip into depression, Tom Donahoe delivered a
megadose of hope. He signed eight modestly priced, but decidedly valuable veterans. Second he had a solid draft. And finally they traded for a starting QB Drew Bledsoe.
