Two Bills Drive

‘Said Bills coach Gregg Williams: "St. John Fisher did a great job putting the camp on and it improved from last year. I think it has to be one of the best camps in the National Football League with the whole production. The fans have been outstanding and we really enjoy them having a good time when they come out to practice because training camp can be hard."’

‘Of the players who stood out during training camp, Williams said first-round draft pick Mike Williams is the "real deal" and second-year running back Travis Henry was productive.’

‘"St. John Fisher did a great job putting the camp on, it improved from last year, and it has to be one of the best in the NFL with the whole production."’

‘They believe a year of endless kicking — starting with a full season in NFL Europe that ran right into the championship game, then winning the punting and kickoff jobs with the Bills in camp for another endless season — deadened his leg by October or so.’

‘They’re playing in a tough division but I think they’ll go 8-8.’

‘"Having been exposed to it for two years, I really don’t know if you could draw up a training camp situation better than what we have here at Fisher," Donahoe said.’

‘Several NFL officials recently visited the camp and have noted the support the team has received throughout Rochester in hopes of boosting its marketing presence beyond the immediate Buffalo area.’

‘As a package, the Bills look, at the very least, intriguing with every possibility they could be a serious spoiler in the AFC East. If the offensive line comes together quickly enough and the defence is able to get its act together, they could be more than spoilers.’

‘Projected record: 7-9.’

‘Flowers is hopeful a change of scenery and a scheme that relies heavily on its outside pass rushers might resurrect his career.’

‘The Bills today announced that the team has extended its agreement with St. John Fisher College to hold training camp at the school through the summer of 2011.’

‘We could not be happier about the arrangement," Bills president and general manager Tom Donahoe said. "I really don’t know if you could draw up a better training camp situation than what we have here at Fisher."’

‘The contract that brought the NFL to Pittsford had two years left on it–until the Bills announced a seven-year extension, keeping the team and the fans through 2011.’

‘The former University of Arizona standout was signed by the Bills as an undrafted free agent in 1999. His best season was in 2000, when he played in 16 games and started six, and had 43 catches for 697 yards. For his career, he has 54 catches for 826 yards and two touchdowns.’

‘The Houston Texans claimed defensive end Erik Flowers, a former first-round draft choice, off waivers Wednesday.’
