    Re: Skooby sources... Boldin is in Buffalo today

    I don't consider his acquisition of significance, like at all. He's a veteran presence for camp, that's about it versus him being a nimble addition to the team. He's 37 for Christ sake, that's like 44 in QB years.

      Recent golf outing with Beane dip (inside joke):



      I figured this would go overlooked and silence the masses, who am I talking to again M-Fers ?? I'm talking to the man and the powers that be. So anyone even mentioning **** should get a life, I don't post many photos as well so get a life.

        If Sammy comes up limping again on his bad hoof, we'll be happy he's here.

        Insurance and experience at a position of question marks outside of a promising Rookie.

          What can Boldin teach Zay that a wide receivers coach can't?
          Lots. Considering that our WR coach is Jones college coach there is a lot he'll need to learn about the Pro game v. College game. Boudin will have scouting reports in his head on a lot of the DB's that the Bills will play and will be able to teach Jones intricacies of how to set up certain DB's for a double move, what one CB or S may show to tip you off to zone v. man coverage or a potential blitz. The nuances of the game are integral for a young guy to learn and a lot of time the coaches don't have the time to go into that level of detail with every player on the squad.

          Also consider that our WR coach has only been the top WR coach for a year and a half.

              In addition to veteran FA WR Anquan Boldin, the #Bills had in defensive players Roy Miller, Leger Douzable, Devon Still, I'm told.

                This means he worked out well and a positive physical means a contract could be coming.

                  In addition to veteran FA WR Anquan Boldin, the #Bills had in defensive players Roy Miller, Leger Douzable, Devon Still, I'm told.
                  Still quit football in 2014 to be with his daughter during stage 4 cancer..

                  Still put his football career on hiatus saying: "she's fighting for her life. Sports is not more important than me being there while my daughter is fighting for her life." Since the June 2, 2014 diagnosis, Still spent the next three weeks sleeping next to his daughter at the hospital despite his own recent back surgery. In support of his daughter, Still shaved his head bald and has said that he will grow back his hair only when Leah's does.[15]
                  The Bengals demonstrated their loyalty even further by permitting Devon Still's jersey to be sold in order to raise awareness for pediatric cancer research and the Cincinnati Children's Hospital. $400,000 sales were made in four days. At the end of September, it was reported that Still's jersey donation sales neared $1 million. The New Orleans Saints head coach, Sean Payton bought 100 jerseys and distributed them to the local Boys & Girls Club and the Cincinnati Children's Hospital.[16]
                  On September 25, 2014, before driving Leah to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia for cancer surgery, Devon Still posted a video to his Instagram account, which went viral. Still later tweeted that the tumor and lymph nodes were removed.[17][18]
                  On October 5, 2014, during a game with the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts, a music video was shown on the stadium's video screen featuring Still's daughter. The Patriots cheerleaders also donned copies of Still's' jersey to show support. It was further reported that Patriots owner Robert Kraft was donating $25,000 to Cincinnati Children's Hospital and Medical Center in Leah's name.

                  On March 18, 2015, Still announced that Leah had undergone surgery to get the tumor out, and that she was now cancer-free. On July 15, 2015, at the ESPY awards, Devon and Leah Still received the Jimmy V Award for their determination and perseverance in the face of cancer.[19]

                  In November 2015, Still announced Leah was in remission with no signs of cancer. In January 2016, Still announced that Leah remained cancer-free and that she had "really beat cancer."

                    Sounds like a awesome guy to have in the room and an easy guy to cheer for. I hope his tryout went well.

                      It also means the interest is mutual.

                      Regarding the other players, I wonder how much of them bringing dline in has to do with Washington's situation.

                          I can't believe people here are *****ing about Boldin.

                          Whose the number 3 that he's beating out?

                          This guy can still play.

                              Didn't Boldin have more catches last season than anyone on the Bills? A crafty veteran could definitely help our young WR corps immensely.

                                He's a beast. Has never played less than 10 games in a season his whole career.

                                He had 8 TDs last year.
