The heavy hitters
Jared Cook – Tennessee – Cook has great size and the physical attributes to be a mismatch in coverage similar to Chandler. Athletic enough to be a downfield threat in the passing game, Cook hasn’t been able to produce in a way that’s fitting of his skill set. But there’s no denying his pass catching and big play ability. Age 25.

Fred Davis – Washington – Davis is a versatile tight end, but coming off an Achilles injury his physical state will play a large role in what he could command on the open market. Capable of getting consistent separation in the passing game Davis also has the ability to line up as an H-back or on the line. Age 27.

Dustin Keller – NY Jets – Another mismatch in the passing game, Keller is more of a split out type tight end. A solid route runner with great hands, Keller can be a go-to guy particularly in the red zone. His athletic ability enables him to make plays despite less than ideal size. His injury history (see: hamstring) is the only drawback. Age 28.

This is the position I think the bills will be shopping for in FA'cy.

I think Keller makes sense for this offense.

I would like Keller as well. A double whammy. Improve the Bills & hurt the Jets.

Pettine should have inside info on Keller.

Yeah this guy is a sleeper FA. Could come in cheap and covers us in case Chandler isn't ready week 1.

I think we need 2 TE's we have no idea when Chandler will be back nor how effective he will be comming back from the knee injury he suffered, and the back ups we have are horrible.

Can Dustin get and stay healthy?

We will not be the only team looking for TEs this off season, seems to be a growing need in the league, especially after watching Gronkowski/Hernandez.

Last year was the only season in his 5 year career he didn't play a full 16 games. I take the chance on him but also like Cook and Davis but to me Keller is the most reliable option and toss in he might be the most affordable due to injury questions.
