We told you that we'd be running monthly approval polls for Chan Gailey and Buddy Nix once Buffalo Bills training camp got underway; we knocked off the Gailey approval poll last week, and now that the major dominoes have fallen into place for the pre-season roster, let's take care of Buddy. Here's what he's done of late:
- Got eight of nine draft picks signed prior to the start of training camp on July 29
- Signed first-round pick C.J. Spiller to a five-year, $25 million ($37.5 million maximum) deal with $20.8 million guaranteed, ending an eight-day holdout one week prior to the team's first pre-season game
- Released veteran pass rusher Aaron Schobel after rumors circulated that he was considering playing in 2010
- Replaced Nic Harris on the roster with Donovan Woods
- Has been at several training camp practices watching his new team work under Chan Gailey
