Buffalo Bills Backup QB Ryan Fitzpatrick "Learning Fast"

Early in training camp there were concerns by observers outside the organization about the depth of the Bills truly had behind starting quarterback Trent Edwards. Both Ryan Fitzpatrick and Gibran Hamdan did not get off to the best start in training camp in late July. Fast-forward to Mid-August and Fitzpatrick has settled into his new offensive system with its up tempo approach and had a sharp night of execution against the Chicago Bears in Buffalo's second preseason game. Ryan is doing a great job now, said "Trent Edwards. "He is communicating very well with me when I am on the sideline and then when he is going in there he is doing a great job running the offense and that is a credit to the type of player he is. He is picking up the offense very fast and that is because he, is just a smart football player, that is why we bought him in here. Fitzpatrick does not deny that his play was not consistent in the beginning as he wanted it to be, but things are rounding into form for him. I fell better now than in the beginning . I am sure that will continue as the season progresses, "Fitzpatrick. "There will always be some bumps in the road but I will adjust. Fitzpatrick was extremely efficient against the Chicago Bears going 13-16 146 yards and a 103.9 passer rating. On the three possessions that he ran he put 10 points on the scoreboard and likely would have had more if Roscoe Parrish did not fumble at the Bears 16 yard line and Felton Huggins would have been able to come up with a fade pass in the endzone. It is definitely important, "he said. "Usually you will see more field goals in the preseason. You don't have many special packages. We had a couple on Saturday and the guys up front did a good job and that lead to success. He can put the ball wherever he wants, "said Edwards. "He can make all the throws. Finally, where Fitzpatrick figures to be most valuable however, is in assisting Edwards in diagnosing opponents and adjusting to the change ups opposing defenses will throw at Buffalo's offense on Sundays.

Buffalo Bills Cut LS Ryan Neil And Sign LB Solomon Elimimian

In a move that came sooner than expected, veteran long snapper Ryan Neil was waived by the Bills on Wednesday following the conclusion by the team's training camp at St. John Fisher. Neil was in a heated battle with rookie long snapper Garrison sandborn, who impressed enough during a three day tryout at Buffalo Bills mini-camp to be offered a contract. By the close of training camp Wednesday, Sandborn performed so well that he convinced the Bills coaching staff that Neil was expendable. The competition between the two specialist appeared to be a dead heat throughout training camp with many observers feeling that it would be a roster position that would go down to the end of preseason. Sanborn consistent accuracy matched that of Neil and he appeared to have superior velocity on his long and short snaps. Bills Head Coach Dick Jauron paid very close attention to special teams drills when long and short snaps were part of the special teams segment, even timing the splits from snap to kick on field goals and punts with a stopwatch. Neil had controversially replaced Pro Bowl long snapper Mike Schneck. Dick Jauron had said at the time that the team was making a investment in Neil. The Buffalo Bills sign Solomon Elimimian (6'0 225) was the WAC co-Defensive Player Of The Year as a senior for Hawaii in 2008 and finished his career as the school all-time leading tackler with 434. He has experience as a outside and middle linebacker. The Bills looked as though they would be down in numbers at linebacker this weekend for there preseason game against the Packers on Saturday. Both Ashlee Palmer and Pat Thomas remained sidelined with injuries and both are not expected to play against Green Bay this weekend.

Buffalo Bills Marshawn Lynch "Redemption"

Marshawn Lynch has gone on record saying that not playing will be particularly difficult for him in the first three weeks of the regular season this fall. There are few that like suiting up on Sunday and competing more than the Bills hard running feature back. Prohibited from playing or practicing from Sept. 5 to Sept. 28, Lynch already has a plan in place on how he, intends to stay sharp while he is away from the team. It does not stop me,"said Lynch."I am just not going to be able to participate with the guys out there but as far as working out, it still continues for me. Lynch will continue with his weight room routines to maintain extra muscle he has packed on his frame this off season and has some running back specific drills that will put him into action on his own. A lot of it will be runs, set up cones down the field making moves on them, individual work, running, lifting, continue doing the same things just not too many team periods,"said Lynch. But the Bills top back is going to stay in his playbook during his league imposed down time so remains sharp with his assignments when he returns. With almost three weeks before he is forced to sit out three games, Lynch has begun the process of getting accustomed to watching his team play without him. But he plans to have himself in the proper frame of mind for his forthcoming absence from the team. I have sometime to get mentally prepared for it and playing in these preseason games, I will get on the field,"he said. I don't think too much of it will be tough. When asked is there a silver lining of his three-game-absence could be fresher legs at the end of the season, Lynch gave a shoulder shrug. Well as hard as I run, I don't know if there will be fresher legs, "said Lynch."But they will be pretty ready. Stay out of trouble Marshawn.
