Florida TE Ingram fares well
Missing the entire 2008 season due to an ACL injury has made for an uphill battle for Florida TE Cornelius Ingram, but on the heels of a decent combine workout, Ingram did very well at the Gators pro day. He ran a 4.69 and 4.72 in the 40 and jumped 9’6″ in the broad jump. [...]
Maybin impressive and jacked up
Penn State DE Aaron Maybin looks more like an NFL defensive end now that he’s bulked up to 252 pounds just over the past month. He also is faster, as he improved his 40 time running a 4.59 and 4.63. He ran a 4.78 at the combine. That’s an impressive jump, and faster than Everette [...]
Bills to sign LB?
There is a report from ProFootballTalk that the Bills are going to sign Chiefs free agent MLB Patrick Thomas. No confirmation yet from the Bills. We’ll keep you posted on Buffalobills.com. Thomas has also played outside linebacker in his career, so if the report is accurate Thomas could be viewed as a potential replacement for Angelo [...]
Bucs sign Crowell
A day after making a free agent visit to One Bills Drive, free agent LB Angelo Crowell signed a free agent deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. That according to the Pewter Report. Crowell had paid the Bucs a visit last week and knowing their defensive system has a lot of similarities to Buffalo’s he [...]
Lynch excited about T.O. addition
During Marshawn Lynch’s news conference with the WNY media where he pledged to a fresh start off the field, Lynch also commented on the team’s acquisition of Terrell Owens. “It was kind of a surprise to me,” said Lynch of hearing the news. ”I thought it was a joke, but then I got a few text [...]
Lynch expects suspension
After taking the proactive approach and calling the Commissioner’s office to request a meeting instead of being called in for a disciplinary sit down, Lynch still believes based on how stern Roger Goodell was in the face-to-face encounter that he will be suspended in the next 10 days. “For me, I honestly see a suspension [...]
Lynch comes clean
I’ve got to say it was a side of Marshawn Lynch everyone was glad to see. His comments this afternoon were genuine, he was regretful for what has happened to him off the field over the past calendar year and sounded determined to make changes in his life and make better decisions. He knows convincing [...]

Cutler and Scheffler to Redskins?
Well here’s the latest rumor on this Cutler saga so take it for what it’s worth. According to the Bleacher report, yes I know… risky, it’s a three-way trade with Cutler, Scheffler and a Browns 3rd round pick going to Washington, Chris Cooley, Jason Campbell and a Denver 5th rounder to Cleveland and Brady Quinn and Washington S [...]
Many layers to Crowell visit
Being 18 days into free agency and still unsigned, it has to be a weird situation for Angelo Crowell. After making trips to visit with Detroit and Tampa, he’s now come back to visit Buffalo (the visit was Tuesday). The linebacker was no doubt hoping that he would enter free agency on a high note, coming [...]
Schefter: Peppers will not be a Patriot
Appearing on WEEI radio in Boston Tuesday morning, NFL Network reporter Adam Schefter stated that Carolina franchise DE Julius Peppers would not play for New England in 2009.

OT Oher to Bills in latest mock
The possibilities are endless as we all know, but ProFootballTalk has Ole Miss OT Michael Oher going to the Bills at 11 overall, as they predict a trade of Jason Peters on or before draft weekend. If Peters is moved, Oher is a distinct possibility. The tackle made a lot of progress from his junior [...]
Jets don’t have QB to swap for Cutler
As much speculation as there is in New York right now about the Jets possibly making a play for Jay Cutler I don’t see it happening. First, they don’t have many attractive chips they can offer Denver outside of the 17th pick. The Broncos want a starting QB in return, which ironically is what Denver [...]
Bills in running for Crowell?
It’s been a quiet day here at One Bills Drive, but there are reports that Angelo Crowell was scheduled to meet with the Bills Monday as he whittles down his options on where he might play in 2009.

Pats making play for Peppers?
Well Bills fans this would be the worst nightmare come true. According to NFL.com’s Vic Carucci, the Patriots have been discussing a trade with the Carolina Panthers to acquire Julius Peppers. Apparently it could be finalized at the league meetings set to take place in California from March 22nd to the 25th, and right now [...]
Ayers to Bills in recent mock draft
There are a myriad of selections that have been made for the Bills with the 11th pick in this spring’s draft, but this is one of the first appearances by Tennessee DE Robert Ayers in that spot that I’ve seen.
