CAMP OBJECTIVES:
New Bills head coach Dick Jauron has a mess on his
hands as camp begins. First there is the matter of
the quarterback position, where veteran Kelly Holcomb
has been named the starter but there remains great
hope that the light will finally come on for former
first-round pick J.P. Losman. The receiving corps
loses its top talent in Eric Moulds (Texans), and
will be looking for Peerless Price (Cowboys) to rediscover
the form he established with the Bills as a 1,000-yard
receiver in 2002. The offensive line is young with
a capital Y, and Jauron and offensive coordinator
Steve Fairchild will have to do without former starters
Trey Teague (Jets), Bennie Anderson (released), and
Mike Williams (released). On defense, the Bills have
lost giant run-stoppers Pat Williams and Sam Adams
over the course of the last two seasons, and must
determine whether the new tackle rotation of holdover
Tim Anderson, free agent signee Larry Tripplett (Colts),
and rookie John McCargo (North Carolina State) can
hold up. At linebacker, there is hope that Takeo Spikes
can suitably recover from the torn right Achilles
that caused him to miss nearly the entire 2005 campaign,
and that the 31-year-old now known as London Fletcher-Baker
still has something left. In the secondary, the major
battle will be at strong safety, as rookie Donte Whitner
(Ohio State) seeks to live up to his Top 10 billing
and beat out veteran free agent Matt Bowen (Redskins).
