      He's too old. Nix has already stated that they're not looking for free agents at the end of their career.

            Well, from what I understand, Torrel Troupe failed his physical with the Colts, which is why the trade was nullified... Didn't stop the Bills from keeping him around.

              When did the Bills try to trade Troupe to the Colts?

                We can use a new injured O-lineman, our IR list has set near biblical records recently.

                  I think that was another failed high draft pick, John McCargo.

                    Yep, you're right... At my age, I have a hard time keeping track of ****ty defensive linemen that the Bills have drafted in recent years.

                        Clifton may not ever play again. He just had back surgery and failed a physical with the team that kept him for the entirety of his NFL career. Packers released him because they think he is done. He's 35, a bad time in his career to start having health issues. At this point, Hairston would be a better option at LT than Clifton would. JMO
