Camp Question: Do the Bills have enough at quarterback?

"The tone on the other end of the phone isn’t inspiring. Another quarterback derby awaits the Buffalo Bills this summer, this one between Matt Cassel, EJ Manuel, Tyrod Taylor and Matt Simms.Asked to assess the Buffalo Bills’ current plight at the most important position in sports, one NFL personnel executive starts at the, um, top.“Cassel’s Cassel,” the executive said. “He’s kind of proven he’s a No. 2 guy. Taylor, your guess is as good as anyone’s. He’s had some good moments in the preseason and some bad moments. Same with Simms, really. And I wasn’t overly impressed with Manuel when he was out there."

Bills notebook: Confident Watkins says it’s playoffs or bust

The wide receiver doubled down on earlier comments Wednesday as players moved into the dorms at St. John Fisher College for training camp.Watkins is well aware that the Bills set an all-time record for season ticket sales. He can feel the hype. He sees the new faces.Now, it’s time for it to all transfer to results."

Bills players know expectations are running higher

"As Bills players began reporting to St. John Fisher Wednesday for the start of training camp, there was a prevailing theme, especially coming from several veterans. They all recognize there is heightened optimism, and even expectations, coming from their own fans, as well as many in local and national media.When asked is he senses that same buzz and anticipation, center Eric Wood met it head-on. “Yeah, we do,” he said. “And we hear about it from people around town and it’s outstanding that we’ve sold more tickets than ever in history even with our playoff drought, and that’s awesome.”"
