Two Bills Drive

"I’m always optimistic that we’ll get them done on time, the problem is that in these first couple rounds, where our guys are, there is just very little movement," said Tom Donahoe.

"We hope something (happens soon). More teams are reporting to camp by the end of this week and we’ve got some time yet. We’re working on it and the agents are. It’s not to a stage of being nasty."

‘Want to ask Bills owner Ralph Wilson a question? Now, here’s your chance! Be sure to submit your question for Ralph Wilson via e-mail, and he will answer some of the questions asked next week!’

‘While most of his teammates were working hard stateside learning Gregg Williams’ new offensive and defensive systems, Hulsey got a chance to play in actual games against other talented players allocated by other NFL teams.’

‘Bills running back Sammy Morris took time out to answer some e-mailed questions from buffalobills.com users this week.’

‘Some teams clean house after a .500 season. The Buffalo Bills decided to knock down a few walls and re-lay the foundation…’

\’Coach Gregg Williams is already on record saying \”this train is waiting for no one.\” \”Camp is for the players … and rookies realize they need to be in camp on time,\” Donahoe said.\’

‘ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reports that the hard-hitting linebacker is being courted by the New York Jets, San Diego Chargers and Indianapolis Colts.’

‘"John’s going to visit the Jets next Tuesday," Brian L. Kelley, his agent, said Tuesday. "About five teams besides the Jets have contacted us. But the Jets would be a nice matchup."’

‘I’ve picked four to talk about, because I’ve got a gut feeling (and maybe you do too) that sometime during the season, the winners of these jobs will play a big role..’

‘The rookies report on the 25th, while veterans report on the 28th.’

‘Pivotal games: Back-to-back road games at Miami (Sept. 16) and Indianapolis (Sept. 23) will give the Bills an early indication of where they stand in the AFC East. A potential grudge match with Flutie looms in San Diego on Oct. 28.’

"As of today, I’m looking for the 5-9, 220-pound Henry — the only true halfback on a roster loaded to the gills with glorified fullbacks — to emerge as just that this summer."

Bob Kalsu was a promising tackle for the Buffalo Bills before he chose to server in Vietnam becoming the only pro athlete serving there. Sports Illustrated has his story (cover story).

‘But it may be tough to convince Holecek, who has recorded at least 100 tackles in each of the last three seasons, to accept a reserve role. If he signs, he will come in as Marvin Jones’ backup in the middle.’
