Buffalo Bills News and Discussion
"I was a little worried about Donahoe early on with the fire sale that we had that first year he got here," Brown said. "But now it’s paying off."
"We were determined at the end of last season to do whatever we could to make this team better," Donahoe said. "But really, at this point, that’s all we’ve done. We’re a better football team on paper. Unfortunately, I’ve never seen any games played on paper. So we still have a lot of work to do."
Please be advised that the Bills will introduce quarterback Drew Bledsoe to the media at a press conference on Wednesday at 3:00 P.M. Afterwards, Bledsoe will be introduced to Bills fans at an event outside the team’s training facility in Orchard Park, NY.
More specific details on Wednesday’s events will be released as they become finalized. Stay tuned to buffalobills.com.
The Bills took big, tough players who are ready to contribute. They are a much better team today than they were before the draft. You can second-guess the Bills for taking Mike Williams instead of Bryant McKinnie, who is more of a natural left tackle. Pick by pick, this was as strong of a draft as any team had. The Bills should get at least four solid starters. Grade: A+
Published reports have the Bills signing undrafted free agent quarterback, David Priestley out of Pitt. The Pittsburgh Tribune Review quoted Priestly as saying, "I was told I’ll have a chance to fight for the number three spot and I believe that I’ll have every opportunity to get it." The Bills are also said to have signed Notre Dame defensive end Grant Irons and Louisville long snapper Chip Mattingly.
‘"I don’t look forward to competing against him," said Belichick. "But you have to do what is best for your football team."’
‘But unlike the pouting, petulant Doug Flutie who tore the Bills’ lockerroom apart complaining about playing behind Johnson, Bledsoe reacted with class and dignity. He kept his mouth shut and dutifully mentored the quarterback who took his job.’
‘"I could not be more enthusiastic about jumping into the next phase of my career, and contributing to the success of the Buffalo Bills."’
