QB Drew Bledsoe — He gives the Bills instant credibility and puts Buffalo in a position to be this year’s Patriots story. For the first time in many years Drew has to compete to save his career and most insiders I spoke with feel he’s up to the challenge. He could easily have the kind of effect that Rich Gannon had on the Raiders when he moved west to Oakland back in 1999, and Bills offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride is at his best when coaching smart QBs like Bledsoe.

If you run down the list of superstars from those Super Bowl teams, you'll find a group of players whose personalities were as memorable as their football ability. Making such a large group of stars feel like they were appreciated was a tricky task. The man who did it (Marv Levy) might be the most unforgettable character of all.

The event will feature a live performance by a national recording act, which will be announced at a later date. The Bills Experience will be set up outside the stadium. Fans will also have their first opportunity to purchase new Bills jerseys and other merchandise.

“7. I think I like a lot about what I’m seeing in Buffalo. The Bills will be a wild-card team.”

‘Figure on at least one, and possibly as many as three, former starters hitting the bricks on Saturday or soon after.’

Alexander has accomplished nearly as much as Jamal Robertson on the ground, but he has more total yards from scrimmage because he has been a bigger factor in the passing game. Alexander was a fourth-round draft pick of the Broncos in 1998, but failed to make it through his first training camp. He has generated enough interest that if the Bills waive him, another team with less depth will bring him in for a tryout.

In several situations, impending cap casualties already have been contacted and deals are in the works with potential suitors. For example, OT John Fina’s agent already has received several calls from teams considering the “former” Bill.

Head coaches were asked: Pick one player to build an expansion team around?

Faulk, a defensive coordinator’s worst nightmare, garnered just two votes. One came from Bills coach Gregg Williams, a former defensive coordinator who knows a thing or two about trying to contain offensive firepower. “He presents too many match-up problems,” said Williams. “And he causes these problems against every defense run in the league.”

The final cap hits for Bledsoe and Terry Glenn are now on the books. According to the latest NFL documents obtained by the Globe, the Bledsoe cap hit for the Patriots was $6.666 million, and on Glenn it was $945,000. Bledsoe’s number includes the $6 million in pro-rated bonus from his newest contract, plus $666,000 pro-rated from his old contract. As for Glenn, it’s unclear why there was such a large hit. There was a "secret" settlement between the Patriots and Glenn and it has been kept under wraps by the team and the league. Bledsoe’s cap hit will be the second-highest on the roster this season.

‘At a time when it was acceptable for professional athletes to defer military service, Kalsu felt obligated to honor the ROTC pledge that had been as much a part of his life at the University of Oklahoma as had his All-American role on the football team. And so Kalsu left his pregnant wife and young daughter to fulfill what he deemed to be a responsibility he could not ignore.’
