Two Bills Drive

Merceda Perry, a LB out of UNC Chapel Hill, who the Bills signed on January 24th and allocated to NFL Europe had 4 sacks in a game condition scrimmage for the Barcelona Dragons.

‘"The difference is in the takeaway-giveaway ratio. Tell me who had the most takeaways in a game, and I can tell you the likely winner." The Bills had 19 takeaways in each of the past two seasons. They finished in the bottom five of NFL takeaway-giveaway ratio in both years.’

‘Adams is the run-plugger who will keep the blockers off Fletcher and Spikes. He automatically would make Pat Williams better.’

‘Here is how I rate the AFC East in terms of improvement since last season ended…’.

”’The Bills have done the most to improve their team but they’re the one that needed the most. They significantly improved themselves on defense by signing [linebackers Jeff] Posey and [Takeo] Spikes. They lost Keith Newman but they more than made up for that with Spikes, who should really impact their defense.”‘

‘As encouraging as the Patriots’ signings of linebacker/pass rusher Rosevelt Colvin, safety Rodney Harrison and cornerback Tyrone Poole have been, Bill Belichick and Scott Pioli are still a move or two away from matching the offseason improvement of the Buffalo Bills.’

You would be hard pressed to find a staff that has been busier than Tom Donahoe's staff over the past two weeks.

Since the free agency gates were opened on February 28, the Buffalo Bills President and General Manager has orchestrated a number of roster moves that have raised the level of excitement and anticipation among Bills backers everywhere.

You can get a summary of which players various mock drafts have projected the Bills to pick from TBD and its staff of volunteers.

The NFL Coaching Internship Program is a joint effort of the NFL and the NFL Players Association. This year’s participants include two former Bills:

PETE METZELAARS (FC Barcelona Dragons – Training Camp) –

MARTIN BAYLESS (FC Barcelona Dragons – Full Season) –

‘The Bills, however, are usually the top TV draw in the area. So Channel 7 should at least be able to do much better in the ratings with the Bills than they would do by carrying ABC’s summer schedule of prime-time shows.’

‘Adams is smart enough to realize that the money in the free agent well is drying up quickly now and he won’t wait forever on the Bills to get into what he feels his price range should be. In the next week or so, if there is no deal with Buffalo, he will begin exploring options. And don’t be surprised if the Ravens are at the top of his list.’

Four different cards including one featuring recently-acquired linebacker Takeo Spikes.

Cornerback Alex Molden (San Diego) is the latest free agent to visit the Bills. Molden, a first-round pick by the New Orleans Saints in 1996, played two years for the Chargers before the team released him this year.

‘Molden’s agent is Angelo Wright, who is trying to reach an agreement with the Bills and another client, Pro Bowl defensive tackle Sam Adams.’

Spielman said the Dolphins were playing host free agent TE Marco Battaglia on Thursday and today and are interested in former Bills TE Jay Riemersma. Battaglia was cut after two games with Tampa Bay last season and finished the season with Pittsburgh. The Bills recently released Riemersma. The Dolphins need a backup TE because Jed Weaver and Desmond Clark departed as free agents.
