You know we got the young guy (Nathan) Peterman, I thought he did some nice things this weekend at the minicamp. Cardale Jones has huge arm and talent. I don't know anything about him personally. TJ Yates has done some starting in his career, so there are some guys on the roster. I am for open competition.'

'The Bills will hold their ten sessions over the next four weeks before wrapping up with a three-day mandatory minicamp June 13-15. OTAs are voluntary. Players cannot be fined or suspended by the team or league for failing to show up.'

'“He texted me as soon as I got drafted. He told me he couldn’t wait to work with me. I met him (Friday) in person in the locker room,” said Jones. “He seems like an unbelievable guy. Family oriented, just loves his teammates. He embraced me. That tells you what type of man he is. He didn’t have to do that. So glad to play for someone like that and I can’t wait to develop with him.”'
