Training Camp 2018 Dates


Recommended Posts

I went to oneBuffalo to get the tickets for the Sunday July 29th practice and filled out the form. It said the submission was accepted but that's it.  I understand the tix will be texted to me but when, and was I in time to get any? A confirmation that I will get them, or if I was too late, would be nice.

Theyve cut a lot of days in the last 10 years or so. Used to be you never had to worry about why Day to go because there were plenty to choose from. But now you may have to schedule time off from work if you want to make it.

Bill Belichick probably thinks a stolen play call in the summer is just as important as stealing one in the fall.

Wow , McD takes no chances or distractions. Good to hear Bills have the class to pay you for idle time , they are serious down to small details.

...try THIS one on....for several years, we hosted a dinner for the entire Bills coaching staff and brass one evening after camp......McD squashed it his first year at the helm....saved us $7,500+.....

I remember thinking to myself when you mentioned the dinner cancellation...

 

...this McD fella means business...

 

...no strings attached...

In today's BN , Mayfield and Darnold are also unsigned due to offset language and bonus structure. I guess the Bosa drama was not the only one.

 

It sounds like he cannot practice without a contract ?

...think there would be a huge liability issue for him to assume....no contract means the Bills are not obligated and I assume he is NOT covered by ANY CBA language (if any for unsigned) because he is a non-member....signing a waiver would be insanity......still think the "wait" is as you said, Mayfield & Darnold, relative to guaranteed money (not bonus) and offset language....chess match among agents.......

I'm going to training camp on Saturday. How long do the practices usually last? I have young kids who can be difficult to get going in the morning, and they won't last longer than an hour watching the practice anyway. I'd rather show up for the last 30 minutes of practice and then let them check out the other stuff to do there.
