Two Bills Drive

‘Hull, a three-time Pro Bowler and hands-down the greatest center in Bills history, has been chosen as the Wall’s 19th member.’

‘Tickets ($32.50, $25.50) are available at Tickets.com and Tops Friendly Markets.’

‘My first year covering the team was 1973. And in the 29 years until now, nearly 600 players – 584, to be exact – have worn a Bills’ uniform at least once during the regular season. And of that number, none did I like and respect more than Kent Hull.’

‘“I’m in an organization now which really believes in what I’m capable of doing,” Cowart said. “The most important thing I can do is just get myself ready.”‘

‘A commanding win for Drew Bledsoe.’

‘”We talked about the competition between the Bills and Dolphins and what that rivalry always meant to us,” said Kelly. “Both Dan and I know this event is going to be competitive . . . but the bottom line is we’re going to come to enjoy ourselves and raise some money for some charities around here.”‘

"Welcome to Buffalo Drew, where the wings are hot and the weather is cold."

The Admirals (featuring Bills allocated WR Reggie Allen and QB David Dinkins) visit the Galaxys (featuring Bills allocated RB Curtis Alexander) and is the featured game on Sunday at 1 PM EST on Fox.

Two veterans have made a positive first impression with the coaching staff and their new teammates are linebacker London Fletcher and safety Billy Jenkins by showing up in camp when not required.

‘The question is: Does the fifth-round draft choice have the talent to help the Bills’ defense as a rookie?’

‘The game’s proceeds will benefit the Hunter’s Hope Foundation – the nonprofit group established by Kelly and his wife, Jill, in 1997 after their infant son, Hunter, was diagnosed with Krabbe’s Disease – as well as the Ilio DiPaolo Scholarship Fund and the UB Athletic Scholarship Fund.’

‘Hall of Famer Marv Levy will coach the Kelly squad, which will feature Thurman Thomas, Andre Reed, Don Beebe, Bill Brooks, Steve Tasker, Fred Smerlas, Darryl Talley, Kent Hull, Cornelius Bennett, Chris Speilman, Shane Conlan and Pete Metzelaars and more.’

Head Coach Gregg Williams was pleased with the progress of his young players after the two workouts but was even more thrilled by the fact that some of the new veterans acquired this off-season were taking part in the the camp that was designed for first and second year players.

The biggest mystery surrounding the Bills in this mini-camp is whether John Fina or Larry Centers will be part of the team when the season begins.

How can I expect Kevin Gilbride to change his offense to suit Drew Bledsoe, when he couldn’t cut it with Kordell Stewart in Pittsburgh? Well, he’d better or the Bills will realize pretty quickly that a severe error has been made and Gilbride will be history.
