NFL minicamps: Buffalo Bills

Saturday, July 24th, 2010

The Buffalo Bills have made big news at their recent minicamps as their head coach has made some surprising announcements concerning one of the major positions.

Chan Gailey, the head coach for the Buffalo Bills, has announced that there will be a wide open battle for the starting quarterback position for the Buffalo Bills. This sort of news is exciting, but also surprising. It is not very often that a coach closes all past doors and starts the quarterbacks on level ground entering into the season. There are many experts that feel that some of the candidates will have the upper hand on others, but Gailey has reiterated that there will be no favorite coming into the off season for the starting job.

Though the quarterback controversy is a big deal, it is not all of the hype going into the offseason. One of the biggest things that brought attention during minicamps was the play of first round draft pick C.J. Spiller. Spiller is a running back out of Clemson that is known for his tremendous speed on the field.

Spiller has not disappointed this offseason with his speed. His 40 yard dash time for the NFL Draft was the fastest among running backs but many experts feel that he is even faster in relation to his competition on the field.

He has really displayed that speed at minicamp and he will be a big help for whatever quarterback ends up winning the battle. He can carry the ball and is also an option out of the backfield as a receiver. That versatility will help the new quarterback.
