Buffalo QB racking up air miles

Buffalo Bills starting QB Trent Edwards has taken a novel approach to the non-appearance of two of his top receiving threats during minicamp:

He's taking camp to them.

Edwards, who replaced J.P. Losman last season, will fly out to play catch with speedster Lee Evans, and TE Robert Royal. Edwards clearly feels that Training camp is not the place to be ironing out little flaws, and wants the team to be as prepared as possible this August. The snag? Edwards is based in California, Evans in Florida, while Royal works out in Arizona.

"I don't want July 25th to be the first workout I've had with those guys since last season," said Edwards. "I need to get out with those guys whether it be here, whether it be out where they are. I'm willing to go wherever they go so that's kind of my offseason plan right now." says the former Stanford player on the team's official website.

While the situation is refreshing from the point of view of Bills fans, you can bet your bottom dollar that coach Dick Jauron would prefer to have both Evans and Royal at OTA's, and - while he might let it go this year - will probably make it clear to Edwards in future that this kind of thing doesn't encourage players to head to New York state.

We'll be taking a close look at the Bills later today in the first of our team previews.
