5 takeaways from first day of Buffalo Bills minicamp 3. Offensive line shuffle continues The Bills trotted out their fourth different variation of a first-team group at offensive line as the injuries continue to stifle new coach Bobby Johnson’s options. Morse was in at center and he was joined by Dion Dawkins (LT), Vlad Ducasse (LG), Wyatt Teller (RG) and rookie Cody Ford (RT). De’Ondre Wesley subbed in for Ducasse, who swung to the right side, on a few occasions. Wesley was with the Bills for a few stretches last season but played exclusively at tackle. His 6-foot-6, 331-pound frame on the interior of the line stands out. Spencer Long, who is expected to be a starter at one of the guard spots, took all the reps at backup center. Ty Nsekhe took part in warm up drills but sat out team drills as he continues to rehab an injury. Ducasse struggled last season but it’s not a stretch to think he could insert his name in the competition during training camp with a few solid practices. He’s a guy that’s liked in the locker room and he showed he can play well with better players around him in 2017 before Richie Incognito and Eric Wood retired. Ford continues to get all the first team reps with Nsekhe out, which is an important part of his development. Bills coach Sean McDermott said it’s on the players who are missing time to get themselves up to speed. “Well you want to try and capture as much as you can. We talk a lot about how (a player) might not be able to practice but what is he able to do, with respect to walk throughs and during practice,” McDermott said. “We try to capture as much as we can and then really the ownership is on the player to bring himself up to speed and keep in tune with what we are doing mentally. We try and check for understanding as much as we can in that area.”

funny how that poster calls out some for being sensitive and then goes even further to call another poster annoying or a douche, go figure. yet mention sammy watkins and the defense mode kicks in, defending a former player that was never really all that great. but hey, he was forced to come back too soon, so that's the excuse.

should we pat him on the back, give him a cookie?

what do you come here for kid? to rile up bills fans? you seem like a real loser, a troll. you obviously have no real interest in the buffalo bills other then to come here and spew your garbage. easy to do on a message board though, for a troll such as yourself. loser.

5 things to watch for during Bills mandatory minicamp Offensive line dance After adding vet after vet after vet in free agency and then bringing Cody Ford into the fold via a second-round pick at the recent NFL draft, the team’s O-line has been all over the place during OTAs. The most recently reported first-team offensive line, from left to right last week, was Dion Dawkins, Jon Feliciano, Jeremiah Sirles, Spencer Long and rookie Cody Ford. But according to WGR-550, there was a bit of a rotation, too. Second-year pro Wyatt Teller rotated in at right guard with Long also rotating to left guard and Feliciano went over to center at times, too. In the two weeks prior, the first saw a more “vet heavy” first-team line, while the second saw youngsters get in there more. And hey, let’s not forget. We haven’t once mentioned Mitch Morse, the team’s marquee signing in free agency. The highest-paid center in the NFL told reporters last week he’s looking forward to being a full participant in practice during minicamps. He was limited last week.

bacon, yep, bacon.

hope it's not the late game. folks tend to get drowsy after stuffing themselves with all that turkey. by november, most will already have an idea of what JA is made of...

it's only blocked on the site here. click on "watch on youtube" and you'll be able to watch it.

is that your present wife there as your avatar? she has some chin there, no need for a bib, just let it run off like a waterfall...

wasn't really thread worthy so I'll leave this here. seems ol' fitz has mahomes attention There isn't much Patrick Mahomes II loves more than a good FitzMagic show. The Chiefs' star quarterback found out Ryan Fitzpatrick is a fellow no-look passing aficionado and immediately tweeted his support. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001033102/article/patrick-mahomes-reacts-to-ryan-fitzpatricks-nolook-pass

JK really needs to stay clear of JA, we don't need these old guys hanging around and rubbing off on him. serious note. the kid just keeps on impressing, a real good kid.

this. big difference between entertainer/musician and greatest musical composer.

why do you feel so superior to make such an ignorant comment?

call me impressed...? once a douche, always a douche.

r.i.p.

Correct, 506th of the 101st Airborne. not sure of the company? Parachute Infantry Regiment? I'm going to copy/paste a couple posts from my cousins (second cousin) son regarding my uncle. Remembering my Grandfather PFC Morris Thomas, Machine Gunner, 506th PIR, 101st Airborne Division, KIA, October, 1944 in the fierce fighting for the liberation of Holland. Honoring 16 year old Dutch civilian Leonardo’s GM Jeunken, Killed In Action, October 1944 in fierce action in the town of Opheusden, Holland. When my grandfather’s Assistance Gunner was killed, Leonardus picked up a rifle and provided covering fire for my grandfather, PFC Morris Thomas of the 506th PIR, so he could continue to man his .30 caliber machine gun.

*I stand corrected. after talking to my cousin my uncle after surviving (although wounded) DDay was kia in October 1944 and buried in Holland. they were able to bring his remains home to be buried back the 70's. "all gave some; some gave all"

I'm wondering how different the poll results would be on a national scale?

kind of ignorant to try and tell someone that may not agree with you to go cheer for the patriots. honestly, it's almost to close to call http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-hall-of-fame/09000d5d811bfdf4/Bruce-Smith-vs-Reggie-White

spicy Italian

who?

he received his first purple heart after being wounded following the jump. he would receive another in October 1944 that would cost him his life. his remains were located in Holland.
