Two Bills Drive

Buffalo's Alexander rushed for 75 yards, including a one-yard touchdown run, to help the Galaxy to the win. Alexander leads NFL Europe with 358 yards rushing and a 6.4-yards-per-carry average.

‘The Browns and Buffalo Bills will conduct a summer practice session and scrimmage on August 2 and 3 at St. John’s Fisher College in Rochester, NY, the Bills’ training camp home.’

Alexander, who is one of seven Bills allocated to NFL Europe, starts for the Frankfurt Galaxy and leads the league in rushing yardage (358), total yards from scrimmage (434), and rushing touchdowns (4). For the season, Alexander is averaging 6.4 yards on 56 rushing attempts.

He will be the leader and he can make the difference, but Bledsoe won't be a one-man revolution.

‘Training camp is almost three months away, but it’s not too early to speculate about the impact of this year’s draft class.’

The response to the acquisition of Drew Bledsoe has been enormous, with emails pouring in to buffalobills.com by the minute. Here are a few of the latest emails received. Additional emails will be posted throughout the week.

Bob Lamb, the tall man in the hard hat at TBD tailgates, tells the tale of almost losing the Shout Song.

‘Even if he does not know the whole offense, it did not stop the three-time Pro Bowler from showing off his arm at the three days of workouts. He connected on numerous deep passes, and looked sharp running a system that relies less on short passes to backs than deeper crossing passes to receivers and tight ends.’

‘Drew Bledsoe doesn’t make the Bills an instant Super Bowl contender. But he does accelerate the rebuilding effort by warp speed, by turning what was a glaring weakness into a positive. He also gives the Bills the legitimate “star” they’ve been missing that helps sell tickets.’

WIVB will become the new preseason television partner of the Buffalo Bills and will also air “The Gregg Williams Show” Sundays at 11:30 AM.

‘"We’re very fortunate right now when you look at our personnel department and what we’ve assembled here," he said. "It’s as good as it gets."’

‘"I’m excited about the start, but we have a long ways to go," said Williams. "Today was a day where lots of things started jumbling together for some of the young guys."’

‘Is Bledsoe really worth a first-round draft pick next year? To the Bills he is worth more than that, as the spike in season ticket sales indicates.’

‘"He just has a great feel for the game. He’s a projection in our defense to play safety but he played it (free and strong) pretty well at the Senior Bowl. The bottom line is that Coy Wire is a football player."’

The three-day orientation camp for rookies and first-year players concluded on Sunday morning with a two-hour workout in the field house. Overall, head coach Gregg Williams was pleased with what the young players showed on the field but he was quick to reiterate that they have a lot of work to do.
