"I remember my first minicamp practice last year," Batten recalls, "and me and Arthur Moats were roommates. We thought we didn't know how to play football anymore. We were uncomfortable. We didn't know the defense. It felt like we didn't know how to play the game. That's not the case this year."

Re: Bills' Batten aiming for comeback
I really think Batten is going to be a good player for us. I like what I saw in last year's TC pre-injury. All signs are that he still has that high intensity and additionally now understands alot more of the game and what Gailey wants to do in this defense. He'll be a back up initially, but should make the team and contribute.

Re: Bills' Batten aiming for comeback
I know Batten, Easley, and the other 2010 draftees still have everything to prove, but I'm having a hard time not getting excited about them. Batten worked hard at learning the D despite being on IR. He's gained weight and probably is mentally at the point where he could play either ILB or OLB.
We're very young and inexperienced, but it appears the Bills have been drafting guys who have the right mentality during this lockout.
I do think Batten will be in fine position to make the team and even get some PT."Misguided political correctness tethers our intellects."

Re: Bills' Batten aiming for comeback
for some reason I'm just not excited about Batten.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.

Re: Bills' Batten aiming for comeback
A complete unknown, much like WR Easley.
Let's see them play before exercising our vivid imagination. We know NOTHING about these guys until they actually take the field in a game.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit

Re: Bills' Batten aiming for comeback
The last two years of drafties seem like more of a hit then a miss.
Can't wait to see this team on field.
