‘Here is a brief synopsis of what each coach had to say about their position…’.

‘"We’re going to be fast, and we’re going to be aggressive this year," said Fewell, who spoke Thursday to reporters at team headquarters here. "We’re going to play hard and hustle to the football."’

‘2005 Team: New York Jets.’

‘2005 Team: Washington Redskins.’

‘2005 Team: Detroit Lions.’

‘Before I even got here, I heard Cologne had some of the best facilities, and it is true. We have a nice locker room, a big weight room, and the stadium is off the chain. It’s decked out in red and white for us, and every seat in the stadium is a good seat, so hopefully we’ll fill it up. Even our uniforms are the best.’

‘Buffalo will host two more free agents today, left tackle Jason Fabini of the New York Jets and Packers third-string quarterback Craig Nall.’

‘Right now the Bills have more holes than they have fingers, some of it due to the old regime’s decision to bring Losman on board.’

‘Buffalo’s brass is much higher on the current 1-2 QB punch of J.P. Losman and Kelly Holcomb than some of us. There would’ve been risks in adding Culpepper or Brees, but there also would have been a potential upside and cause for optimism.’

‘Sure, it takes convoluted logic to get to the point where Leinart is available at the eighth pick. But break it down and it appears he or Cutler likely will be there. The question is will the Bills be interested?’

‘Q: The Bills have a young team, do you think it is on the right way to the playoffs?

A: Oh yes, I think we had a very talented team last year. I know last year was a disappointing season even though I didn’t play. We were falling down in very close games. But I’m sure that Mr. Marv Levy and Mr. Ralph Wilson put together the right people up stairs.’

‘Buffalo defensive back Troy Vincent was re-elected Wednesday as president of the NFL Players Union.’

‘Despite signing former Colts’ DT Larry Tripplett, the Bills still have a large void to fill at nose tackle following the release of Pro-Bowler Sam Adams. The Bills also lost DT Justin Bannan, who signed with the Baltimore Ravens as a free agent. This makes the push to draft Oregon DT Haloti Ngata that much stronger for Buffalo.’
