Two Bills Drive

Rob Johnson ($5,075,250) alone counts for 39% of the team’s dead cap money. Combine that money with Henry Jones ($2.9 million), John Holecek ($1.6 million), Phil Hansen ($1.6 million) and Ken Irvin ($1.4 million) and you have 99% of the Bills dead dollars tied up among five players. Bills GM Donahoe is doing his best to avoid future dead cap money, that’s why it’ll be interesting to see what happens after June 1. A lot of dead money equals salary cap jail, something Donahoe has said will not happen again during his tenure with the team.

The Buffalo Bills have had a long and storied playoff history, dating back to their 1964 and 1965 AFL Championships, as well as their four consecutive AFC Championships in the early 1990s. Here's a complete list along with game summaries.

‘The Bills would be crazy to let Riemersma go, especially after a career-best 53 catches last year. Keep this in mind: When Drew Bledsoe was at his best with New England, he had tight end Ben Coates to throw to. He needs a tight end with hands, and Dave Moore isn’t that guy.’

‘With a willingness to take a "substantial" pay cut, according to his agent, and to assume a backup role if that’s what the coaching staff wants, the veteran offensive tackle is not making it easy for the Buffalo Bills to cut him on Saturday.’

Tickets for the general public will be available beginning on Friday, May 31 at all Tops Friendly Markets locations and will be limited to four per person…

The Bills are hoping tight end Jay Riemersma will restructure his contract to avoid being cut because coordinator Kevin Gilbride wants to run a lot of two tight-end sets. After catching only 11 percent of their teams’ passes last season, AFC East tight ends likely will have an expanded role this season.

Tom Donahoe, Gregg Williams and John Murphy attended and spoke on upcoming new jersey unveiling of the new uniform jersey. There will be 30,000 tickets available and the stage will be on the field like the Jim Kelly jersey retirement ceremony.

‘Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly and a Pittsburgh marketing company have signed a deal for the creation of "Kelly Krunch," a limited edition cereal expected in Buffalo-area stores in July.’

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.
