BillsBeat - April 30, 2001

Is Spoon 2nd coming of Spielman?

‘Like Spielman, Spoon has the short hair, a set of biceps so big you are forced to check for valve stems, an all-business attitude and one of those "You-talking-to-me?" stares.’

D and C | Apr 30, 2001

Changes amaze Christie

‘"It’s a whole new team," said Christie, noting the 34 new faces on the roster and the almost entirely new coaching staff.’

D and C | Apr 30, 2001

Centers an upgrade for Bills at fullback

‘Centers vs. Jonathan Linton as starting fullback is a no-brainer unless Centers has a negative we’re not aware of.’

D and C | Apr 30, 2001

Rookie looks like a Spielman clone

‘The Buffalo Bills weren’t necessarily in the market for a middle linebacker during the NFL draft, but when Chris Spielman’s clone was there for the taking, they didn’t think twice.’

D and C | Apr 30, 2001

Several sophomores expected to break out in 2001

‘Rookie coach Gregg Williams wants more speed in his Buffalo Bills defense, and free safety Travares Tillman could provide that element plus some blitzing ability. Tillman started the final four games of the regular season in place of the injured Keion Carpenter a year ago. It won’t be an upset if Carpenter doesn’t get his job back.’

CBS Sportsline | Apr 30, 2001

A. Smith gets second chance

‘Judge (who is a good judge of character, excuse the pun) thinks he’ll be Buffalo’s starting back this year.’

Fox | Apr 30, 2001

If the Bills were truly Bill's

‘I always wondered why the Bills were called the Bills, if most of the players on the team weren’t actually named “Bill” (or William). So, I have outlined which players SHOULD be on the Bills for the 2001 season.’

BillsBeat - April 29, 2001

Robertson taken by Bills after 1 year at Hinds

‘Robertson transferred to Hinds for academic reasons in 2000 and collected 38 solo tackles, 22 assists, nine sacks and nine other tackles for a loss as the Eagles rode a dominant defense to an 11-1 finish and a state championship.’

Vicksburg Post | Apr 29, 2001

Catawba players taking their shot at NFL

‘"Hey man, I’m a Bill," Peterson gushed. "Yeah, man! A Bill! I’m a Buffalo Bill!" It was a bit overwhelming for a kid from Clinton, N.C. who didn’t even play his first season of football until his junior season in high school.’

Salisbury Post | Apr 29, 2001

Peterson to Bills; Lockhart to Jaguars

‘When the last of the 246 picks was called, Peterson found himself in a recruiting war as a free agent between Miami and Buffalo. He said he was leaning toward Miami and the warm weather until talking with his agent, Joe Linta…"Miami had five defensive tackles on the roster and they were only keeping five. Buffalo has only two defensive tackles. So that was our best bet."’

Salisbury Post | Apr 29, 2001

In rush to judgment on the draft, Bills deeper by the dozen

‘No matter how rosy the projections, however, the final grades on this draft will be available sometime around Thanksgiving.’

Buffalo News | Apr 29, 2001

Larsen on the right path

‘So the education of Leif Larsen continues. How quick a study he is will determine whether he has a future with the Bills.’

Buffalo News | Apr 29, 2001

Picking through AFC East

‘Donahoe had a long history of success drafting in Pittsburgh, and his first effort for the Bills looks solid…count on Donahoe having brought in some young talent that will play well in this league.’

Boston Globe | Apr 29, 2001

Late draft pick impresses Bills

‘"I’ve been blessed in life," Robertson said. "I took the long road to get here, but I’ve worked hard. I just want to make this team and prove to people I belong."’

D and C | Apr 29, 2001

BillsBeat - April 28, 2001

Bills' new cornerback renews old friendship

‘Antoine Winfield knew Nate Clements could be a good defensive back the first time he saw him at Ohio State three years ago. They’re in similar roles now with the Buffalo Bills. The team drafted both players in the first round — Winfield in 1999, and Clements a week ago.’
