    Bills looking at DT Alan Branch

    He would be a 3rd DT, run-stuffer. Would be a good signing, the guy is a good role player and would help make them more stout up the middle against the run. Would help keep blockers off the LB.

    He fired his agent last month because he wasn't happy about not getting a deal. Lots of people have connected him to Jacksonville, as Gus Bradley (their new HC) was his DC last year.

    He played for Seattle last year and has been looking for a new deal for a while. Seattle decided to sign Tony McDaniel to replace him. LaCanfora says the Bills are interested in getting a deal done with him soon.

    This is what we have been needing for years. KW and Dareus would be much better working apart. They are too much alike in their styles and would benefit from having a big stuffer next to them. That will also keep each of them fresher throughout the game.

    On 3rd down take out Branch and have KW with MD get after the QB.

      Yep more evidence that a lot more 34 looks are coming. Branch would be a nice upgrade over Spencer.

        I remember liking him out of college. Role player but does it well.

          That would be a positive sign of thought and reason occurring at OBD.

            As if anyone needed more evidence that Troup busted.

            Sounds alright, we need another rotational DT with Johnson gone.

              Sounds like a plan. We could use him. Quit messing around OBD
              get him to sign a decent contract.

                Bills offseason workouts begin Tuesday


                Hopefully you can fly the guy in when the official workouts starts. It can't hurt, IMO.

                          Dareus has nothing to do with Anderson. In a 4-3 Dareus is a DT and Anderson is a DE. In a 3-4 Dareus is DE and Anderson is a LB.
