Two Bills Drive

‘Running back Antowain Smith signed a one-year contract Thursday with the New England Patriots after four years with the Buffalo Bills.’

‘After ranking 26th in the NFL in rushing with no feature back, the New England Patriots on Thursday signed free agent running back Antowain Smith. Terms were not disclosed.’

"He has prepared his whole life to be an NFL head coach, so don't expect Gregg Williams to blow it."

‘The Patriots have just signed running back Antowain Smith formerly of the Buffalo Bills.’

‘"I just think that the ship wasn’t run tightly," Brown said. "The plays weren’t being called correctly. The right personnel weren’t in all the time. The players were put in an awkward situation and it wasn’t fair for us to be in that situation because a lot of us came out and really busted our humps."’

‘Modrak is considered one of the most astute talent evaluators in the NFL. He immediately became a target of several teams after being fired by Philadelphia last month. With the Bears moving at a slow pace, he decided joining the Bills was a better option.’

‘Citing a host of troubles, from poor play-calling to an overall lack of organization, the five-time Pro Bowl guard accused Phillips of messing up what could have been a memorable Bills era.’

‘Considered a prime candidate for future NFL executive openings, Modrak didn’t rule out the possibility his time might be short with the Bills.’

‘”Evidently his phone’s broken down or maybe in the surgery his ears got numb, because he hasn’t called me back,” Bills coach Gregg Williams said, referring to two messages that Moore failed to return on Tuesday. “Patience is not my middle name. So he needs to get here as soon as possible.”‘

‘People have questioned Rob Johnson for his lack of community involvement (not having bought a house here) , but I think he is quietly doing the right things. ‘

‘Buffalo Bills linebacker Corey Moore did not attend the start of minicamp Tuesday, but he had a good reason.’

‘Steve Tasker knew what people were saying behind his back, that he couldn’t overcome his size disadvantage to become a productive football player. Once in high school, a Division III coach informed Tasker he wasn’t going to recruit him because he thought he was too small.’

‘No contract has been signed, but the terms have been agreed upon, according to Scott Berchtold, Bills vice president of communications. The team will introduce Modrak at a news conference today.’
