Two Bills Drive

‘This season, the Bills are rolling the dice with offensive tackle Kris Farris, a 6-foot-8, 322-pound man mountain of unfulfilled potential. An intriguing player whose future rests tenuously on a surgically repaired bone in his foot.’

Join readers of TBD and fans from around the country as the Bills meet the Chragers on October 28. TBD readers have the choice of two options – sitting with the large group of San Diego Bills Backers or sitting with a smaller group closer to the field. Visit the link above for more information.

‘Hopefully Centers can live up to Williams’ glowing praise!’

‘The Bills’ acquisition of veteran fullback Larry Centers should aid that cause. Centers, who agreed to free-agent contract terms with the team Tuesday, figures to add a dimension to the Bills’ offense that was too often absent last year – the dump-off pass to the back in the flat.’

‘A native of Tatum, TX, Centers was a fifth-round pick of the Arizona Cardinals in the 1990 NFL draft out of Stephen F. Austin and went on to play in Arizona from 1990-98. He is the Cardinals’ all-time receptions leader and set an NFL record for receptions by a running back with 101 in 1995.’

‘Billy Buffalo will be on hand this Saturday to meet fans and pose for photographs during the kick-off Select A Seat Week this Saturday at Ralph Wilson Stadium from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.’

"I don’t care what he thinks, I don’t care what you (the media) think or anybody else thinks. Sam Cowart’s job is to play where I tell him to play."

as told to the Buffalo News.

‘Former Jets personnel guy Pat Kirwan discusses the value of rookie free agents. He mentions Keion Carpenter, as an example. A cap freindly signing in the Butler era??? Who knew???’

‘Centers is a good, pass-catching fullback that is a perfect fit in the new West Coast offensive scheme. With the signing, the team gains a fullback that can provide quarterback Rob Johnson another dangerous two-dimensional threat out of the backfield.’

‘The NFL free-agent market was glutted with big-name fullbacks, but the Buffalo Bills feel they landed the one that best fits their needs.’

‘Centers doesn’t exactly fit the prototype of the fullback as used in the game now, since he is not renowned for his blocking skills. He is, however, an accomplished receiver out of the backfield and his 685 career receptions represent a league record for catches by a back. That includes 81 receptions last season, a Redskins team high.’

‘Among all NFL backs, only Richie Anderson of the Jets (88) caught more passes last season.’

‘Larry Centers, the premier pass-catching fullback in the NFL, on Tuesday reached an agreement with the Buffalo Bills. Terms were not disclosed.’
