Two Bills Drive

‘Moore, 24, apologized to the organization and his teammates because he believes his recent legal problems have been a distraction. Moore met with Bills coach Gregg Williams for 45 minutes following the team’s two-hour minicamp workout on Wednesday.’

‘"What happens, happens," he said. "Coach Williams controls if I make this team or not."’

‘Vanderbilt defensive back Jimmy Williams became the latest in the string of draft picks to sign with the Buffalo Bills.’

‘"I want to apologize to the entire Buffalo Bills organization," Moore said Wednesday. "In my heart, I feel I have been a distraction."’

‘Hill was re-signed by the Bills as a free agent Nov. 22, 2000, and waived on June 1.’

‘"All rookies come in thinking they own the world, and they don’t," Williams said. "Not around me, they don’t. He’s going to have to earn it. These guys are expecting him to earn it. You have to learn it’s a different gear, so I always like picking on him."’

‘"Coming from high school to college it was a lot faster and I had to work a lot harder to get where the older guys were at that point, just to play at their level," Aaron said. "Somehow I got there and then I got a little faster than everyone else, played a little faster. Now I’m here and I’m hoping I can catch up and maybe even get ahead and then this won’t seem so fast."’

‘"We went to court today and we asked to have the hearing today, but Jeremiah Taylor (the alleged victim) said he had witnesses," said Jim Haywood, Moore’s attorney. "So it was moved off until August."’

‘"Last year, you’d get about three or four ‘uhs’ before the play came (in the headset)," Johnson said. "A lot of the time you don’t get a lot of confidence as a quarterback when that’s what’s coming out of the huddle. "I don’t want to knock who was here in the past but Doug would tell you the same thing. We would get the play with 12 seconds left. You can’t audible, you can’t think."’

‘Allotey, selected in the second round of the 1998 draft by Buffalo, had been on the Bills’ roster the past three seasons but did not appear in any regular-season games.’

‘Conaty, a restricted free agent, returns for his fifth season with the Bills after accepting the team’s tender offer. Terms of the deal were not released. Conaty made a base salary of $385,000 last season.’

‘Irvin said the Bills training staff told him that he would be fully recovered within two weeks and ready for training camp, which opens July 29.’

"Just one day after announcing the signings of three draft choices, the Buffalo Bills immediately got back to the negotiating table Tuesday by reaching an agreement with fourth-round selection Brandon Spoon, a linebacker from North Carolina. "

‘Finally backed by a coaching staff that completely supports him, Johnson seems at peace with himself for the first time since arriving in Buffalo.’

‘Williams said on Monday that the team is going to practice outdoors, even in November and December, until "it’s so bad we can’t be outdoors at all."’
