    Is this old news?

    John Carlson

    Buffalo signed Courtney Anderson in free agency, but look for another tight end to be added to the roster in the draft. Notre Dame's John Carlson will work out for the Bills, a league source said.

      I think there are far better TEs to be had in the first 3 rounds. Carlson, while a solid all around player, just doesn't seem like the fast, athletic stretch-the-field guy that we need.
      Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

          I think they used a sun dial at the combine to measure his forty time.

                Carlson's 40 time was slow at the combine because he had the flu and lost 17 pounds before the event.

                He ran considerably better at his Pro Day the other day, timing at 4.67 and 4.72. His performance was a lot better and he probably elevated his stock back up to the 2nd round.

                Considering the lack of good TE in the draft, he will go pretty high.

                  looks like a taller Reimersma to me.

                    I was under the impression that this was a TE-rich draft, with as many 10 pretty good ones in the mix.

                      I can name about five TE's I'd take before Carlson.
                      I only drink when I'm alone or with others.

                        He would definately upgrade the Bills. I'd hate to see him in Buffalo.

                          His stock is rising, you'll see him go pretty high.

                            I agree...I would much rather draft Rucker,Cottam,Davis,Bennett or Finley.


                            Carlson is too stiff in the hips for me... Not as Big as Cottam....

                              Agreed. I would add Keller to your list, and possibly Stevens and K. Davis.
