    LB Donnie Spragan Expected to Visit Bills Today

    I didn't see this posted.. Anyway from todays Buffalo News BillBoard:



    April 28, 2008
    LB Spragan on radar
    Veteran free-agent linebacker Donnie Spragan is on the Bills' radar and we're hearing he's expected to come to town for a visit with the team today. Spragan is a seven-year veteran who spent the past three years with Miami and three years before that with Denver. He's a 6-foot-3, 242-pounder. He started five games for the Fish last year, and nine in both 2006 and 2005. He was a full-time starter for Denver in 2004. If he signed, he would make competition for a backup outside job more intense. Right now, the outside backups are Keith Ellison, Iowa State rookie Alvin Bowen (just drafted in the fifth round) and Blake Costanzo. Spragan's best spot is on the strong side, which would be behind Angelo Crowell.

      I heard it on Sirius too this afternoon on the 2-minute drill.
      Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?

                Sounds like decent depth. With starters Crowell, Posluszny, and Mitchell and backups DiGiorgio, Ellison, and Spragan, plus one more and maybe a guy on the PS, I'd be pretty happy with our linebacking corps. Of course if they start dropping like flies as last year's Bills did, they won't look good after a while.
                I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

                I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

                  Can he play special teams? We need more special teamers.

                    When stiffs like DiGiorgio & Costanzo are still listed on an NFL roster, you keep bringing LB's in.

                      Good point and this is also why I was upset they didn't focus on a LB in the 4th round. There were still quite a few good ones available.
