    Bills sign FB Mike Tolbert

    Report: Bills agree to terms with Mike Tolbert
    The Buffalo Bills agreed to terms on a contract with Pro Bowl fullback Mike Tolbert, the team confirmed Wednesday. Terms of the deal were not disclosed by the team, but Tolbert will reportedly sign a one-year, $1-million contract, according to ESPN's David Newton, citing a league source. Tolbert was released by the Carolina Panthers in February.The 31-year-old is expected to work primarily as a run and pass blocker, aiding the Bills' top-ranked rushing attack. Buffalo continued to bolster its backfield Wednesday, reportedly signing fellow fullback Patrick DiMarco to a four-year, $8.5-million contract.Tolbert rushed for 114 yards on 35 carries last season.

    (via http://thesco.re/theScore_app ) off signing being we also added the former Falcons FB unless one of the reports is wrong?

        No. We signed the best blocking FB last year and J Williams competition for the bruising RB/FB hybrid who will play on ST's

                I'm convinced you guys complain just to complain! Have you guys even watched Tolbert at all? He's definitely more running back then he is fullback. Looks like McDermott wants versatility in the backfield.

                    for 4 yrs and 21 mill. I'd rather take the best blocking FB last year at 4 yrs and 8.5 mill.

                        Is Gillislee gone? If so this makes sense, otherwise I would rather just pay a rookie or draft pick to be my third string back.

                          Shame. If we'd have locked him up and gotten Felton back, no one else could have any fullbacks.

                            3rd and short. Near the goal line.
