It’s been a forgetful first two years in the NFL for 2010 fourth round pick Marcus Easley.In two seasons, the only games that Easley has participated in have been two preseason contests. Both of which came last year.A knee injury caused him to miss all of his rookie year, and a heart ailment forced him to have to sit the entire 2011 season. Needless to say, Easley and the rest of the Bills staff is hoping that all his medical issues are behind him, and that he will finally be able to play for the team in 2012.Now there’s no guarantee that Easley will actually be able to stay healthy and play this season, but what is pretty much guaranteed is that this season will have a large impact on Easley’s future with the Bills.With two years, including the 2012 season, left on his rookie contract, Easley will need to prove that not only can he actually get on the field and stay healthy, but that he can perform and help the team.At 6’2″, 240 lbs, Easley is that big-bodied receiver that the Bill...

Listen Bills fans, have you ever been more pumped up for a season?
Well, us at Buddy Nixon can tell you that we haven’t.
How can you not admit that the Bills have the easiest schedule in years? As we see from Topher’s break down the schedule series, that the Jets are a very beatable team, and we get them at a perfect time, which is week one.

Leodis McKelvin could stay on Bills’ roster
Leodis McKelvin is a former 1st round pick of the Buffalo Bills, going 11th overall in 2008. However, he has yet to live up to his billing and the regime that drafted him is gone. The Bills have used premium picks on cornerbacks in each of the last 2 years, taking Aaron Williams in the 2nd round in 2011 and taking Stephon Gilmore in the 1st round in 2012, so it was fair to wonder...

Bills have better times on horizon

Look, we have been trying to be reasonable about this business separation between the Houston Texans and former defensive standout and #1 overall pick, Mario Williams. As we previously talked about a LONG TIME AGO, the idea of the Texans letting Williams walk was a bullet the organization had to bite.
