Sorry, I know that this is out there, but I can't find it.

 

When is the Bills rookie mini?  Buffalo Rumblings shows 5/3-6 or 5/10-13. By now I'm sure they've announced which days.  Help.

Are you a fan? Do you even follow the Bills? Did you even watch/listen to the draft?

I can't find the dates for rookie mini-camp, but I did find an article on the calendar for the Bills off season activities.  As of April 1, the dated of rookie mini-camp had not been set, but by rule it must be either the first or second weekends after the draft.  That at least narrows it down some.

Can someone tell me what the weather is going to be like in the next few days?  I missed the news.  I can't wait till tomorrow and have no idea how else I can find this information.

I caught someone (Beane, maybe probably) recently in an interview type thing mentioning it w/out a defined date, saying something like "sometime next week".  I thought that odd in that it was someone that should know when it would be.  So perhaps, quite recently, they still hadn't set a firm date.

Well in the first 24 Hour video on Ed Oliver. Ed mentioned that he was sad he will only be able to stay a day then he had to go home and come back in two weeks. Two weeks from the day he visited after the draft would be exactly 5/10. So it's definitely that weekend

I'm guessing they wait to set it because it depends on who they draft. I believe the rule is a player cannot participate if he is still in school and the semester is not "officially" over. We're in graduation season the next few weekends, so I think it is to their advantage to wait as long as they can to get maximum participation. . . . . Then, of course, I could be making all this up? But I'm pretty certain about being finished with school and the participation part. ?????

Based on TBD calendar I assumed it was 5/3-6 

 

But if Yolo says 5/10, I think one shd go with what he says

I was going by what Sal said on Twitter.... hmmm

 

I put those dates in based on that post from a while back. I just checked here and it looks like Clubs can elect to do it either this weekend or next weekend. I'll adjust on the calendar.

May 10??? Why so late???

2 weeks after the draft.   

 

the Rookies are still in school if I'm not mistaken.

 

Mid May sounds right for end of semester. 

 

 

 

Come meet the guys

Part of the process, they wanted to see if anyone would choose their mother over football.

 

Haha, leave mom a card and a really nice bunch of chocolates.  Have flowers delivered. 

Take her out to brunch AFTER you make the team.

Thank you! I feel that the post you quoted derailed this thread unnecessarily. I have taken names, and although it is against my nature, I will respond in kind in the future.

Forgive him, he's got big life event in few weeks and is probably giddy at the thought of all the money he'll free up afterwards.

OP!!!! The rookie minicamp must be the first or second weekend after the draft. It’s a rule. I thought we all knew this. 

 

Then again, maybe he's just ornery. 

 

Fergy my man, the OP in fact gave the dates of the first or second weekend after the draft, and basically wanted to know which it was.

It is time to send him packing! Can he draft? Yes. Can he remember dates! NO!!

Nine NFL teams open rookie minicamps this weekend

 

Per the Collective Bargaining Agreement, each team may hold one post-draft Rookie Minicamp on either the first or second weekend following the NFL draft, with players participating in club activities for a maximum of 10 hours per day.

 

 

https://billswire.usatoday.com/2019/05/01/important-dates-for-buffalo-bills-offseason-program-post-2019-nfl-draft/

 

ROOKIE MINICAMP: MAY 10-12

The Bills will host a three-day minicamp May 10-12, which includes draft picks, undrafted free agents and a slew of tryout players. This will be the first time Ed Oliver, Cody Ford & Co. will take the field as members of the Bills. Tryout players have a chance to earn a contract and training camp invite later in the offseason

ORGANIZED TEAM ACTIVITIES: MAY 20-21, MAY 23, MAY 28-29, MAY 31 JUNE 3-4, JUNE 6-7

The Bills will begin voluntary spring practices in late May. They are allowed 10 organized team activities during the three week window. During these sessions, players and coaches are allowed on the field for non-contact team drills. They can participate in 7-on-7, 9-on-7 and 11-on-11 drills.

MANDATORY MINICAMP: JUNE 11-13

The Bills will hold their mandatory minicamp in mid-June, which requires all players to be in attendance. Mandatory minicamp occurs during Phase Three of the offseason program, which means that, again, players and coaches are allowed on the field for non-contact team drills and 7-on-7, 9-on-7 and 11-on-11 drills. This will conclude the offseason program and players will have off until training camp begins in late July.

TRAINING CAMP: LATE JULY
