Buffalo Bills show guts by cutting WR James Hardy | Democrat and Chronicle
"Cheers to the new regime of the Buffalo Bills for having the guts to cut former second-round draft pick wide receiver James Hardy. Hardy looks like a football player and has the size and speed to be a useful NFL performer. But he always seemed to be hurt and didn't show much when he managed to suit up in his two seasons with Buffalo."

wgrz.com | Buffalo, NY | Can Bills Shock Dolphins in Opener?
"You wouldn't know it by listening to local radio talk shows or by reading Letters to the Editor in the Buffalo News, but I sense a majority of Bills fans are quietly optimistic about the 2010 season after a 2-2 pre season. Backing up this hunch, is the fact the home opener against the hated Miami Dolphins is sold out, and season ticket sales have again gone well despite a 10-year playoff drought."
NFL notebook | National Football Post
"I am anxious to see the Bills play on Sunday, because their offense has shown some big play ability in the preseason. WR Lee Evans is a very good vertical threat and we all can see that RB C.J. Spiller can flip the field and press the edge of the defense. But, it will always come back to QB Trent Edwards."
