The defense strikes back with multiple INT's by Whitner, one returned for a score the other in the end zone preventing a TD, just hours earlier in the morning session Jairus "the bird man" Byrd flies into action and records multiple INT's CJ Spiller receives a rousing ovation , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was made to play in this type of defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBills14 Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Evans looked real good at practice as did Spiller. It was Spiller's first day out there and you can already sense his explosiveness. However, I am very disappointed in what I saw of Leodis McKelvin tonight. He dropped another punt tonight and got burnt on plenty of occasions. Hopefully Florence lights a fire under his butt otherwise our 1st rounder is going to be playing full-time nickel. BTW Stevie Johnson absolutely "Moss-ed" McKelvin making the catch of camp for a 30 yard gain or so. SICK. GO BILLS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingon Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 A lot of people have been saying Whitner has had one of the best camps out of anyone. I think he is going to have a big year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hossage Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 We know Whitner is a great cover guy, and for a safety he is outstanding in man. He doesn't play center field and get interceptions like Byrd. He is a cautious defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 No, he is signed through next year. http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playerpag...NFL&id=3691 2011 is a voidable year. So he could potentially be an UFA next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Rob Johnson Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 2011 is a voidable year. So he could potentially be an UFA next year. Interesting, I wonder what makes the 6th year "voidable." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
need therapy Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Interesting, I wonder what makes the 6th year "voidable." It depends on how much bran he eats in the 5th year. Sorry, couldn't resist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fingon Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Interesting, I wonder what makes the 6th year "voidable." A lot of rookies sign deals that have the last year voidable. Many times they are only there because they allow teams to keep players if they have been injured for a good portion of their time with the team. A good portion of these voidable years only become that when a player has met playing time requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do they keep allowing Mckelvin to return punts since his track record of fumbling punts stems from last year.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 It's also his contract year... Do you honestly think DW wasn't trying as hard as he could? Because like him or not, the guy bleeds for the Bills. He came back too early from a shoulder injury and got run over by Sammy Morris (which is all people who hate him point to). Whitner, among NFL circles, has a much better reptuation than he does here. Even though it's been 5 years, people jsut can't move on from his draft selection. It's sad.

C.Biscuit97 Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Why do they keep allowing Mckelvin to return punts since his track record of fumbling punts stems from last year.? 1) He fumbled 2 kickoffs and still has potential to be one of the best in the NFL. 2) It's preseason and a lot of people get reps at returning. Have the Bills ever used McKelvin as a PR? I don't think they have. He's a KR and it's much different catching a punt than fielding a kickoff. I won't worry about this too much.
