Bills' Mandatory Minicamp (June 12-14) - McDermott Presser at 11:30 AM Before Day 3 Practice at Noon


Recommended Posts

 

Today, Mike Rodak of ESPN joins Sal to discuss the end of the Bills' offseason program. They share some thoughts on the performance of quarterbacks Josh Allen, A.J. McCarron and Nathan Peterman, the worrisome wide receiver group, and a defense that has a chance to be pretty good.

Five things we learned during the Bills’ offseason program

Sal Maiorana, Rochester Democrat and Chronicle
 
ORCHARD PARK — The horn blew Thursday afternoon signifying the end of the Buffalo Bills’mandatory mini-camp and, thus, the start of a nearly six-week summer vacation, so you can imagine the whoops and hollers that filled the windy air along One Bills Drive.
 
You can argue how much no-pads OTA and mini-camp practices in the spring mean to the future success or failure of an NFL team, so I never read very much into what takes place during these two-plus months of touch football.

It’s practice people.   Practice 

And what would your reaction be if he looked like **** (in practice)?

Josh Allen turned in some good-looking plays, how Taiwan Jones won the spring and plans in the works for offensive players to meet during the break.

And it's as much a part of the evaluation process as OTAs were and Training Camp and Preseason will be... and those will be just practice, too.

 

And before anyone says "well, preseason is where we'll really find out," I think we should all just remember who the preseason star of 2015 was.

 

Training Camp is likely going to be the most meaningful indication of where Allen is and where he will be Week 1.  And that doesn't mean the start of Training Camp, because the 1st day or 2 or 3 he's almost certainly going to ride more with the 3s than the 1s--at least, according to McDermott right now--but as we progress, we'll learn a lot more.

 

The fact that Allen has pretty clearly been steadily progressing and has been given a little more responsibility throughout progressively and has pretty obviously already started earning the trust and confidence of his teammates is a pretty big deal.

 

Nothing guarantees anything, but Allen looking good and progressively better through OTAs and Minicamp is a helluva lot better than him sucking throughout.

Allen has best day yet as Bills end minicamp

 
The Bills’ offense ended their three-day mandatory minicamp on one of the highest notes they could.  Rookie quarterback Josh Allen fired a post pattern about 25 yards downfield to rookie wide receiver Austin Proehl, who took the ball the rest of the way untouched for a touchdown.  The pass, catch, and run covered about 70 yards total.  After the play, the rest of the offense ran onto the field cheering and giving chest bumps to Allen, who clearly had his best day of the week.

Loved the reports from this mini camp. Great way to wrap it up today.

 

Now, let's get Josh Allen signed and get ready for training camp.

 

I forgot he's not signed yet. Holding out already :doh:
