    LB Bruce Carter visiting

    Report: Bills hosting Bruce Carter
    The Buffalo Bills are hosting former Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Bruce Carter for a free-agent visit Friday, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.Carter has visited with the New York Jets on Wednesday and with the Detroit Lions on Thursday. The 28-year-old had 47 tackles, two sacks, and two pass deflections in 14 games with the Bucs last season and spent the previous four seasons with the Dallas Cowboys.If he were to join the Bills, Carter would most likely fill the hole left in the linebacker corps by Nigel Bradham. Bills defensive coordinator Rob Ryan coached Carter for two seasons with the Cowboys between 2011 and 2012.Bills head coach Rex Ryan admitted earlier in the week that the Bills don't have a lot of depth. Carter can play all three linebacker positions in a typical 4-3 defense and would help to add depth overall.

    I don't think anyone was expecting anyone too exciting coming through OBD in FA this year and this definitely fits that mindset.

    Probably better than some of the backups that are on the roster right now at LB and will have a familiarity in a Ryan system. Other than that, he would probably have to fight for a roster spot during camp.
    Remember Kevin Everett in your thoughts.

            I'd feel ok about this one. He just had no real fit in Tampa. Not sure he has one here either, but we're not talking terrible gamble.
