I can confirm, and ESPN radio has confirmed the rumors are not true. Vick is not in Buffalo.
Here is a quick list confirming it:
Adam Shcefter-
Don't care who has spotted Vick where in NY, I'll believe he's in Buffalo/Rochester when I see it. I'm not buying.
To the tweeters tweeting me that Michael Vick is in Buffalo - false. Still believe his deal will be done by Monday, but he's not in Buffalo.
No joke: in past 30 minutes, people have told me Vick spotted in Tampa, Carolina and Buffalo. Didn't realize one man could be in 3 places.
Rich Eisen-
Talk about crazy rumors. Apparently the Bills didn't have a press conf at all and Vick is not in Buffalo either.
BuffaloBills.com-
Bills reiterate stance on Michael Vick

It has been communicated to me through the chain of command at One Bills Drive that the Buffalo Bills stand by their original statement (http://blogs.buffalobills.com/2009/07/28/bills-not-interested-in-acquiring-vick/) that the team has no interest in adding Michael Vick to the roster at this time.

Rich Eisen just confirmed it on his twitter. John Clayton confirmed it on ESPN radio in Dallas and I can confirm through my own station that the rumors are false. We can relax.

rumors are like the plague. Once one gets started it devastates everything in its path and seems to grow and peak before it is finally ended. Though there are always casualties.

he doesnt have to be in buffalo to sign. he could be in rochester and honestly the way alot of deals work is through fax and overnight fed ex believe it or not. he doesnt have to be in buffalo today to get a deal done and report tomorrow or saturday.

So far everything has been shot down though. Jimbo, if you have something I dont let me know. We have always communicated with these reports in the past.
But as of right now, Im telling you guys there has been no hard facts regarding Vick to Buffalo.
So far there has been:
Rick Eisen speculating that the Bills were going to announce SOMETHING
Peter King and others putting Buffalo on a list of possibilities
A rumor started on a message board saying "I know a guy who works at an airport and saw Vick." (Seeing as that same exact rumor floated around last month and nothing happened, Id say its false.)
all have been rumors and speculation.
Id like one solid fact. PLEASE.

Id like one solid fact. PLEASE.Mike Vick is a douchebag and a terrible QB. There's two for ya.

Apparently people in Tampa and Carolina have been going crazy all day reporting theyve seen him in THEIR towns.
Go figure. Maybe he has two identical brothers.

My friend who delivers snacks for snack machines says he delivered to a Bio Tech company and the lead scientist, over a 65 cent coffee and 85 cent bag of doritos claimed they made 4 Vick clones. His agent purportedly is planting the clones in different NFL citys to drum up interest.

Rock Star Guru is an online marketer, his tweets are all about how to get rich online. I dont trust him.
As for Schefter: I believe Michael Vick was just spotted in a foursome just outside Dallas with Elvis, Amelia Earhart and Jimmy Hoffa.12 minutes ago (http://twitter.com/Adam_Schefter/status/3292260982) from UberTwitter (http://ubertwitter.com/) (http://billszone.com/fanzone/) (http://twitter.com/?status=@Adam_Schefter%20&in_reply_to_status_id=3292260982&in_reply_to=Adam_Schefter)

To the tweeters tweeting me that Michael Vick is in Buffalo - false. Still believe his deal will be done by Monday, but he's not in Buffalo.about 1 hour ago (http://twitter.com/Adam_Schefter/status/3291292620) from UberTwitter (http://ubertwitter.com/)

I'm not taking a position either way. Starting to sound suspect, but you never know. The whole Vick situation has been very quiet (in terms of who has interest in him).

There is a report someone who looks Vick at a Rochester area hotel going by the name of Ron Mexico.

That's odd. i would have figured Michael jackson would have worked his way into that foursome and carried some clout over Earhart.
Here's some vick info I can promise you is true. I have lot of connections with the bills. Unfortunately none of them work in the bills fo. But I still have friends, as evident to me an invite to the bills 50th team party held at the stadium opening week. While I was in canton last week Dungy told the group of guys I was with that he was there to honor mr.wilson, but to also talk to the bills braintrust about vick. I also know TO is heavily pushing for this move.

I trust you Slim. Just as I trust a few other people on this board with their sources. But I really cannot find anything that verifies these rumors.
I will keep updating you guys until I leave work in 2 hours.

I don't know how interested the bills are but there is interest. However I'm not saying the bills will sign him.

Thats that... Like I said, the rumor appeared to have legs... sometimes these things are true like with Stroud... sometimes they are crap.
I wonder if we do still add a backup like Griese?

i said this in another thread the other day, Griese may be a Bills soon. Hamdan may get the axe.

How about a backup that can actually play... like someone other than Fitz? That would be really nice.

Well, based on the rumors, which were labeled as such, this was Bills talk.
And now its not. Im glad we have an answer one way or another.
BTW, you wouldnt really bow would you? Are you actually motivated by such things?

i'd be surprised if hamdan gets the axe. trent vouches for him as his preperation guide. it seems to me if hamdan does well again this week and better than fitzpatrick, the bills might have to swallow their pride and let fitzpatrick go. He hasn't been in the system as long and he doesn't serve trent as well as hamdan does.
And that will be another black eye and another miss in a long line of frustrating player personnel moves that this team has mastered over 10 years.
