PITTSFORD, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Bills' banged-up group of wide receivers had their way with the Cleveland Browns' banged-up secondary in Monday's joint practice.
In particular, Robert Woods and undrafted rookie Andre Davis both had their best practices of training camp.
The first 11-on-11 period saw Woods get behind Browns coverage for about a 20-yard gain on a pass from EJ Manuel, while Davis beat cornerback Justin Gilbert for a big play down the left sideline on a lofted pass by Matt Cassel.
When the Bills moved into the red zone for a second 11-on-11 period, Cassel found Davis for a one-handed grab in the end zone on about a 25-yard pass. A few plays later, it was back to Woods for a touchdown over Gilbert on a fade pattern.
ESPN Browns reporter Pat McManamon explores Gilbert's day in more detail, but from a Bills perspective, it was a fairly sharp practice for the Buffalo passing game.
That's not to say it was perfect, however.
Tyrod Taylor, who will start Thursday's preseason game, took nine snaps with the first-team offense and was sacked four times. Three of his other plays were runs, one was a completion to Woods on a short route and another was an attempt to Marquise Goodwin that was broken up by Browns cornerback Tramon Williams.
When Taylor saw three reps with the second team at the end of practice, he underthrew Dezmin Lewis for an incompletion, handed off to Bronson Hill and was sacked again.
Manuel was also sacked once in nine reps with the second-team offense and one-hopped a pass to Lewis at one point.
The problems with the Browns' blitz-heavy scheme extended to Cassel's 11 snaps with the first team. He was sacked three times and had two other passes broken up by Williams.
The Bills also committed three false start penalties and were called for a delay of game.
