@SalSports: Bills host free agent LB Buchanan

http://t.co/e5MJINSOFa


@ChrisTrapasso: More specifics on Buchanan: 34" arms, had super-fast 6.91 three-cone drill at 255 lbs at 2013 combine. Hybrid-type pass-rusher Rex likes.

@ChrisTrapasso: Buchanan was picked by the Patriots in Round 7 out of Illinois in 2013. He's 6'6" / 250lbs. Pass-rusher. Minimal opportunity / impact in NE.

Cool, he can fill Rex in on the other SHENANIGANS Belicheat has been up to aside from deflating footballs.

I liked him the year he came out of the draft as a fit to our D then. Yet he might have a hard time making the current version of the Bills.

He came out in 2013, the same season we ran this same defense under Pettine. Wouldn't that make him a good fit still?

Would rather see another inside guy instead, the team is thinner there...he'll have to battle Randell Johnson for a roster spot.

We have a better/more defined roster now. If we sign him I guess we'd cut Bryan Johnson who like Buchanan is a fringe guy and I agree a ILB would be better suited for us but I have a feeling that Tony Steward might end up there.

Another super fast, super tough guy, with long arms who is so great that he will save the franchise, but is looked as a cast-off fringe player by the rest of the league. Yeah. Let's get excited. Ty Powell is a better player and he's already ours.

Honestly, I don't even think most of the players know what's going on behind the curtain aside from long time ones like Brady. They just do what he tells them to do and hope they get a championship out of it.

Pre cut camp body maybe. Then again there's really no telling whay Ryan gets out of a defensive player, to Ryan's credit.

HughesBuchanan might be better than HughesLawson.

I really won't even try and gripe about most things Ryan adds regarding defense.

And the Bills cut a scrub punter to make a spot for him.

Hopefully, Rex at least gets some Pats* intel out of him.

Best case is he makes the team as a pass rush LB.
