It may be hard for some to believe, but the preparations for the 2008 season begin in earnest a week from today as the Bills will open their offseason conditioning program at that time.
Though the workouts are voluntary they've been very heavily attended the past couple of seasons under head coach Dick Jauron.
"We've had good attendance," said Bills strength and conditioning coordinator J.T. Allaire. "I'd say we usually have somewhere around 50 guys showing up consistently every week. Knowing that it's voluntary that's a great thing for our program."
A handful of players have already been working out on their own accord at One Bills Drive. Brad Butler, Jon Corto, Chris Kelsay, Paul Posluszny, Robert Royal and Ashton Youboty have been some of the more frequent attendees.
At this day in age the players have an understanding of the importance this program holds.
"From a performance standpoint and an injury-prevention standpoint our players understand what it takes to play on Sundays," said Allaire. "And it starts now."
