Buffalo Bills Training Camp at St. John Fisher College is Well Under Way

The Buffalo Bills training camp at St. John Fisher College in Rochester with 90 players in total (including 17 Offensive linemen and defensive backs) is well under way.

There are more days off than ever before and the number of players don’t have to be cut down to 55 until September 4th. That’s all part of the new NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement approved by the Owners and Players Association.

The pads are on but still there were no true intense practices until this past Monday. That’s also when two fights broke out with the main event being wide receiver Trent Sherfield who went up against cornerback Kaiir Elam during wide receiver vs. defensive backs 1-on-1 drills. On the undercard, linebacker Terrell Bernard and Spencer Brown did some swinging at each other while other players got in plenty of pushing and shoving.

Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs brings the intensity every time he steps on the field and had an outstanding day of receptions from QB Josh Allen.

Bills undrafted free agent rookie running back Jordan Mims out of Fresno State has impressed me with his speed and quick bursts in between the tackles and good hands on passing plays. Mims runs low to the ground and could be a problem to tackle.

“I have been building on reps in OTA’s and increasing my burst into the hole is one of the goals my Coaches have for me,” Mims said . “I want to make the team especially being an undrafted guy and I have a chip on my shoulders and want to be a part of this organization.”

James Cook continues to improve as the Bills starting RB with his speed and catches out of the back field. It’s going to be interesting with veteran backs Latavius Murray and Damien Harris getting touches in this backfield. The veteran running backs have a history of not turning the ball over and will get plenty of playing time depending on the situations. The running game should be fine and the offensive line will be quite interesting at cut down time. I like Ryan Bates at center (most likely Mitch Morse), with O’Cyrus Torrence (left guard). Dion Dawkins (Left Tackle), Connor McGovern (right guard), David Qussenberry (right tackle). The best of the rest is Brandon Shell (massive man), Ike Boettger, David Edwards (don’t be surprised to see him in starting lineup at guard), Greg Mancz (center /guard), and of course the often-injured Spencer Brown.

It’s going to take all the way to the final preseason game in order for the Bills Brain trust to figure out this log jam on the offensive line. The tight ends are all set with number one draft pick Dalton Kincaid along with Dawson Knox and the very steady Quintin Morris rounding out the unit. The Texas native Morris continues to make plays in training camp, and going into his third season with the Bills will most likely add much needed depth at the position.

I will review Bills defensive unit which has a plethora of veteran talent on this side of the ball in next week’s edition. These are just a few of the players to keep your eye on as the preseason games start with Indianapolis Colts coming to High Mark Stadium on Saturday.
