Dirtbag Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Does anyone ever wonder what sort of stuff would have been tweeted if the intarwebs were around when the late-80s/early-90s Bills were practicing? i just dug up one of my old tweets from '89: "saw jim, thurm and 'dre at the ballet last nite! snagged dollar thurm used onstage. #billsmafia #mintswave #swag" here's another (non-bills related): "@ediebrickell i'm going through puberty can i get a retweet??? #whatiamiswhatiam #newbohemians4eva" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockinon Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 @WGR550 Bills' Robey had to prove himself again http://bit.ly/1kL1ObH Remember how everyone was talking up the Seahawks secondary last year? The Bills backfield hung with them throughout the year last year. Not quite as good but among the best in the league. I think we may have the the best secondary in the league this year. We added some more talent to the pool and Gilmore should be a big improvement over last year as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Williams and Gilmore got another year too. Con: we let an all pro walk and added graham - who is a good player but not Byrd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLFan Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I can't wait to see him play with this defense, but I have liked everything I have seen and heard so far. He is most definitely a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerball Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 You're wrong, I text Sammy to wake him up. blasphemer @mikerodak Sammy Watkins getting some reps as a kick returner in Monday's OTA. NO!!!!!!!!! If he returns a single kick/punt for this team the coaches need to have their heads examined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 @john_wawrow #Bills tackle Chris Hairston back to Square 1, walking laps around the field rather than practicing. And Hairston's constant injury woes are compounded given there's a job open at RT, as Pears continues to struggle. #Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) @mikerodak Marquise Goodwin isn't participating in positional drills but is on the field in a helmet after injuring knee yesterday. Good sign for him. Mike Williams, Tony Moeaki, and Anthony Dixon return to Tuesday's OTA. Kyle Williams remains out. Chris Hairston is not practicing Tuesday. Had been taking some first team reps Monday at RG What's working the best for EJ Manuel this far in OTAs? Throwing to Robert Woods. His favorite target this spring. EJ Manuel struggling in red zone drills today. Accuracy on fade patterns is off. Bills offensive line hasn't looked better. 3 false starts and counting, plus a sack Stephon Gilmore and Leodis McKelvin getting reps with 2nd team in red zone drills. First action of OTAs Dump-off/scramble to downfield throws ratio for Manuel is still high. Remains something to watch.

26CornerBlitz Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) @mikerodak Manuel goes downfield in 11-on-11, his first deep of practice. Came in 5 yards ahead of Watkins, who had step on 2 defenders Thad Lewis' ball velocity is noticeably better than Manuel or Tuel. But his height is issue. Fired one pass into chest of LB Preston Brown. Manuel frustrated today. Just picked off by Brandon Spikes in red zone drill. Thad Lewis next to the plate in drill. Shawne Merriman: The Bills are a Playoff Team <14:18> Former Bills LB and now NFL Network Analyst Shawne Merriman joins the John Murphy Show, hosted by Mark Kelso to discuss why he thinks the Bills could be a playoff team and what he likes out the current LB corp. Couple of vets return to practice There were two veteran players that returned to the offensive side of the ball at OTAs Tuesday. WR Mike Williams and RB Anthony Dixon were both absent for Monday’s voluntary session, but both are back working with their teammates today. TE Tony Moeaki is also participating after sitting out Monday’s session. Edited June 10, 2014 by 26CornerBlitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braedenstearns Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Out of curiosity, In your opinion, Who do you think is doing better in OTA's? Thad or EJ? I've heard good and bad things about both of them. They don't put up video highlights on buffalobills.com anymore! anyone know why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
