The 2011 Bills Draft hat is out... does this give any uniform insight?

No insight at all unless they are switching to red home unis.

the blue stripe is much lighter than the logo.

I'm not sure. i see what you are saying. the blue stripe on the bill of the cap is indeed lighter than the navy blue.

i think that's acool hat to give draftees. i don't know if i'd wear it. i like the more simple hats that look 50's baseball style like. i have one with a white front and the bills logo and the rest of it is navy. a little understated.

Appears there is a navy blue outline on the logo and what appears to be navy blue accent lines on the top half and front leg of the buffalo. Which would be consistent with the navy accent on "some part" of the helmet.

This hat will be very important.

Each pick, they will put a bunch of names into this hat and pick one out. That lucky name will be the newest Buffalo Bill.

I figure it will work out better than their previous procedures.

Maybe it means thin, single stripes. Personally I like that.

Last time, Madden gave us the hint and we had images on the new uni's before they were formally announced from that source.

Can't remember when Madden normally releases.

I wonder if they don't show the new uni's before the draft. Why do the photo op with our new pick using the old uni?

I notice first of all that all navy has been removed from the hat. It looks like we are going back to strictly red, white and blue (royal blue). That's good to see. :bf1:

Oh and if you think the red makes a difference with the new jersey and gives a tip, it really doesn't. The hats are generic and all the teams are very similar with different colors for the hat. The Patriots even feature red as their main color on the hat....

The interesting thing is that the Bills draft hat on NFL.com still shows navy as the line on the hat. But the one on BuffaloBills.com shows royal blue.

The Pats* have used red as an alt. color on their gear for years.
