Two Bills Drive

'Robinson appeared in 16 games with the Giants and recorded six starts. In New York, Robinson was primarily used as a nickel linebacker. In addition to recording 83 tackles, Robinson also had seven passes defensed with the Giants.'

'In his first season with the Bills, Tate served as Buffalo's primary return man. Tate recorded 662 yards on 29 kick returns, a 22.8 yard per kick return average, with the Bills last season. His longest return went for 45 yards. He also had 26 punt returns that went for 301 yards. His punt return average of 11.6 yards was second in the AFC according to the team.'

'He was arrested with a teammate with marijuana and a handgun in their car, however, Robinson was not charged. Still, NFL teams will likely be asking him about the incident leading up to the 2017 NFL Draft.'

'Round 1, pick 10: Mike Williams, wide receiver, Clemson.'

'“It was very surprising,” said Manuel, who turned 27 on Sunday. “You know, obviously being 2-2 and after losing to Houston, coach Marrone made the change and it was something I never dealt with as a competitor, as an athlete. So, it was definitely one of those things that I had to humble myself and understand that this could happen to anybody, you know what I mean?'

'Forced into duty at wide receiver last year due to injuries to others at the position, Tate caught 8 passes for 117 yards.'

'The fit for the Bills with Cam Robinson is fairly obvious. They have a gaping hole at right tackle at the moment and that's really the only weakness along an offensive line that seems like it will feature the run prominently once again in 2017.'

'Tate originally signed with the Bills just prior to the start of the 2016 season and initially provided a boost to Buffalo’s return game. He finished 2016 ranked fifth in the league in punt return average (11.6) and seventh in kick return average (22.8).'

'“I’d go into any of these other teams and I know I would be a starter,” Groy said. “Here (in Buffalo), on paper right now I’m not a starter. But of course you’re going to go in and try to start. I’m not going to go in and fight for a backup job. That’s not in my nature to do. I’m not going to fight to be second-best. Going to do what I can to push the guys ahead of me and make the team better.”'

'"That got me excited, because a guy like me, my strength is the running game," Ducasse said. "I mean on the offensive line, in the NFL, you need to know how to pass block, too, but my greatest strength is the running game. So seeing this and the great running backs they have, good quarterback, it got me excited to come here because those guys all mean business.'

'“A lot of times when you have an athlete who enters into business, they are really just door openers,” Patti said. “Thurman has taken a very active role in learning the business and being very hands-on with what we do.”'

'"Per a source with knowledge of the contract, Taylor makes another $500,000 if the Bills make it to the divisional round of the playoffs in 2017. The total moves to $1 million with a berth in the AFC title game. The full $2 million becomes earned if the Bills make it to the Super Bowl. The same package of incentives applies to 2018."

'The team’s top corner, Stephon Gilmore, signed with the Patriots. They cut nickel man Nickell Robey-Coleman. Corey White is a free agent and yet to sign anywhere. Right now, the Bills currently have five players at the position: Ronald Darby, Kevon Seymour, Leonard Johnson, Charles Gaines, and Marcus Roberson.'

'This time, it's actually happening. The Buffalo Bills announced Saturday they have, in fact, come to terms on an agreement with free-agent wide receiver Andre Holmes.'

'Stephen Hauschka doesn't feel comfortable discussing the subject. As with most NFL kickers, it's always best to try to keep negative occurrences as far in the past as possible. This one still stings, though. A lot.'
