According to Tim Graham this meeting is just a formality before they sign him. He's high on Rex Ryan's list of guys he wanted to bring in.

Well, he did say he wanted to build a bully.

Great low-risk high-reward move. He won't be a problem, will work his tail off, and will come cheap after a year away from the game. He'll also be pretty rested. If he does become a problem, they can cut him without much trouble.

Good. We need OL who are mean, nasty bastards.

Beat me to it.

I was hoping I was going to get all the credit for making such a fantastic quip.

No such luck.

Report: Bills to take a look at Richie Incognito

As the Bills attempt to take the next step from 9-7 to the postseason, the franchise will take a look at a guy who has been exiled from the sport for more than a year.
James Walker of ESPN.com reports that the Bills will give former Dolphins guard Richie Incognito a physical on Saturday.

It’s a low-risk proposition for the Bills, whose fan base remains in a state of euphoria regarding: (1) the acquisition of the franchise by owners who are committed to keeping the team in Buffalo; and (2) the hiring of coach Rex Ryan. Few if any will bat an eye at the interest in Incognito.

If Incognito signs with the Bills, he’ll become a member of the offseason roster, which can hold up to 90 players. He’ll need to show that he can still perform at a high level — and he’ll have to stay out of trouble — if he hopes to win a spot on the 53-man roster.

Re: Bills Hosting OG Richie Incognito

I like the move. I want the Bills to keep him when he was here last time. Brings a high intensity, mean streak to an offensive line that was nurtured by Doug Marrone. People say he's a horrible pass blocker. That shouldn't be a problem in Rex/Roman's offense. I'm assuming they got him for a very reasonable price, because of the baggage, so that shouldn't restrict them from going after someone else in FA. Imagine this line with Iupati. The only question is, is how will Incognito be excepted by the other players on the team?

Maybe we can sign Ray Rice, Adrian Peterson, and get Aaron Hernandez on work release/community service furlough too.

Accepted? IDK. He gets treated like he's the only competent guard out there some times. He's an idiot. How many locker rooms has he disrupted already? There are other guards out there that can do the job as well, or better, than this guy who is ten years out of the draft now. And he's trouble. So we will see. The Bills recognized this and cut their losses once. Fool me once. Fool me twice.

Re: Bills Hosting OG Richie Incognito

According to Graham, Incognito was said to be a "high priority target" for new Bills head coach Rex Ryan. To this point in his career, the guard has played nine seasons in the NFL in three separate destinations. The Dolphins, St. Louis Rams and even the Buffalo Bills for three games in 2009, all employed Incognito at one point or another.

Incognito joins Chris Williams, Kraig Urbik, Cyrus Kouandjio and Cyril Richardson as the interior offensive linemen that could figure into the starting discussion at guard in 2015. The Bills have yet to make any announcement in regards to Incognito.

Re: Bills Hosting OG Richie Incognito

He hasn't played since the middle of the 2013 season. Has to prove himself all over again.

He also needs some Vets to approach him immediately and tell him his a-hole locker room crap is over and to play football.
