Bills Confident CB Aaron Williams Is Ready To Start

Found May 06, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Aaron Williams,  Drayton Florence,  Stephon Gilmore
TEAMS: Buffalo Bills
The Bills’ release of Drayton Florence was as much about the team’s confidence in Aaron Williams as it was about the team’s confidence in Stephon Gilmore. Unless Gilmore totally fell on his face in camp, the plan all along was for him to be a day one starter. Williams, who was chosen with the 34th overall pick one year ago, has shown the Bills coaching staff enough for them to believe he could be ready to start as well.
