Albany Conquest QB D. Bryant to tryout with Buffalo Bills

[The_Philster]

The Albany Conquest of arenafootball2 announced today that their quarterback D. Bryant will have a tryout with the Buffalo Bills on Thursday morning.
“This is tremendous opportunity for D. and he certainly deserves it,” said Albany Conquest Head Coach Rick Buffington. “If Buffalo likes what they see they could sign him in the near future. D. will fly out from Buffalo to Green Bay to play in our game on Friday night against the Blizzard. He will not miss any practices this week since Thursday is a travel day for us.”

Bryant took over as the starting quarterback for Albany on May 8 against the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Pioneers leading the Conquest to a 52-45 win, which was also their first victory of the season. Since Bryant assumed the role as starter he has led Albany to a 5-3 record after the team had begun the season 0-4...more

Living in the Albany area i've seen him play a few times...hes got a pretty decent arm with pretty good accuracy..doubt he makes the team, let alone the bills even sign the guy though.

Lol, do I have this right? The rejects of the NFL and college go to the AFL, the rejects of the AFL go to AFL2? Then what do the rejects of AFL2 do? Madden.
I still can't get over his name being D.

No, the rejects of AFL2 go to IFL (Indoor Football League). And the rejects of those go to CFL.

His AFL coach didn't have his expectation set too high. He had said he would be thrilled if Bryant made it to the practice squad.
I don't think he'll be a factor any time soon. I'm not sure what the exact relationship is between the AFL and AFL2. I think the AFL is the older league. It is probably somewhat better established, but I don't think it's a given that the most talented NFL rejects go there and the less talented ones go to the AFL2.

OK. You can go back to joking now.

af2 is the jr league version of the AFL. There's no set farm system like with the NHL and its minor leagues, however (example: Buffalo can send players to Rochester in the NHL and AHL but the Buffalo Destroyers of the AFL couldn't send players "down to" the Rochester Brigade for seasoning in the same way)
