By Dennis Amo
We are now in a lull with the Buffalo Bills before the excitement of training camp begins. Breakdowns and speculations from the 3 day mandatory minicamp will be what drives the bus until July 20th.
Here are your daily links for the Buffalo Bills from around the web.
Roth: Bills season ticket sales the perfect storm
"The Buffalo Bills have sold a team record 57,500 season tickets and the number is still climbing. Sales will be capped at 60,000, that’s if the sales team doesn’t fall over from exhaustion first.Mind you, the Bills’ old mark of 57,132 was achieved in 1992, the height of their Super Bowl run.Mind you, this new record has been achieved at the height of their worst playoff drought in franchise history, 15 years."
Bills make changes to Player Personnel Department
"The Buffalo Bills announced changes to its player personnel department on Friday. The biggest one is Rob Hanrahan’s promotion to Director of Pro Personnel. He fills the role last held by Tom Gibbons. Gibbons was fired in January.More on the moves from the Bills:"
Matt Cassel may not make Buffalo Bills‘ final roster
"Matt Cassel was acquired this offseason by the Buffalo Bills from the Minnesota Vikings, and he was immediately thought of as a legitimate candidate to be their starting quarterback. Unfortunately for him, he hasn’t shown up during the OTA’s and mini camp that the Bills have had and could end up missing out on a roster spot according to a report from ESPN.It certainly is a bit of a surprise that he may not even end up making the roster, but that certainly says good things about E.J. Manuel."
Preston Brown: Future of the Bills‘ Defense
"The Buffalo Bills feature one of the most talented and disruptive defensive fronts in all of football. You will often hear about the pass rushers/defensive linemen as the great players in this front. The entire front is littered with star power.While players like Mario Williams, Kyle Williams, Jerry Hughes and Marcell Dareus may get the notoriety, they do not make the defensive calls. The captain of the talented Bills’ defense has arisen without the help of the media spotlight. That captain is linebacker Preston Brown."
