Two Bills Drive

Plus, president and general manager Tom Donahoe didn’t draft Bryson; he drafted Henry, the leading candidate to start. Stay tuned.

Chosen with Buffalo’s second pick in the first round of the 1986 draft, as it would turn out, the Vanderbilt star couldn’t have joined the club at a better time. Only six days after signing with the team, a quarterback named Jim Kelly also made his way to Buffalo.

The Bills completed their third and final off-season camp on Friday, June 13. The next time the Bills take the field, the 42-year old franchise will be in Rochester, NY, for their third Training Camp at St. John Fisher College, which begins on July 24.

The Buffalo Bills, for example, have 10 draft picks to sign; at the very least that’s $160,000 of extra cap space to make up.

“It’s very different,” said Johnson, the former Bills Quarterback. “We kind of ran the remedial version of the West Coast up in Buffalo. Down here, it’s a lot more advanced. Coach Gruden coaches it very well. He’s very detailed, and knows where he wants everyone and what to do. He’s a very good coach that way and it’s nice to be in this type of system.”

The Greater Olean Area Chamber of Commerce came around to my business and asked for donations for a big parade in Olean with Jim and Hunter acting as the Grande Marshalls.

The NFL Europe League will conclude its 10th season on Saturday when the Berlin Thunder face the Rhein Fire in World Bowl X at the Rheinstadion in Düsseldorf, Germany.

In January of 2001, owner Ralph Wilson was looking rebuild his Buffalo Bills. He started at the top by hiring football expert Tom Donahoe to run the team. Donahoe had built the Pittsburgh Steelers into a powerful, playoff-bound team in the 1990s, and Wilson hoped he could do the same for the Bills.

The four adult teams that won their respective divisions were Mallare (Red division), Buffalo Scale #1 (Blue division), Tony's Steakout (White division), and Stumpfs 2 (Green division).

RUBEN BROWN, the Bills six-time Pro Bowl offensive guard, will be hosting his Second Annual Motorcycle Run to benefit The Salvation Army on Sunday, June 23, 2002 at Ralph Wilson Stadium.

Drew Bledsoe replaces Alex Van Pelt. Mike Williams and Trey Teague (who I’m not crazy about because he failed with the Broncos last year) upgrade the Bills at tackle. Tom Donahoe has fixed a horrible cap situation. Heck of an offseason, and it will show on the field in September.

Since they signed Mathis, don’t be surprised if the Steelers trade disappointing former first-round pick Troy Edwards to the Bills, if they can. Otherwise, they may just let him go and hope he doesn’t sign with the Bills. Tom Donahue, the Bills’ GM, was the driving force behind the Steelers taking Edwards in the first round.

The Rochester Red Wings, the Triple AAA affiliate for the Baltimore Orioles major league baseball team, has announced that five members of the Bills draft class of 2002 will be at Frontier Field on Tuesday, June 18 to take batting practice prior to the game and sign autographs during the 7:05 p.m. game against the Columbus Clippers.
