Thu, 13 Apr 2006 21:06:56 -0700

The Buffalo Bills have re-signed exclusive-rights free agent WR Jonathon Smith to his one-year, $425,000 tender offer.

Yet another WR to battle in camp

What is that now? 10 receivers or so??

I guess with Clements, McGhee, King, Greer and Kiwaukee Thomas, Kevin Thomas was expendable, particularly with his knee problem.

I don't see J. Smith making the final roster - we just have too many good WRs, even though he is a versatile player.

Not quite but I believe Bills went into camp last year with nine of them. Sometimes when you are looking for a pearl you need to shuck a lot of clams.

Too bad about Kevin Thomas. He was a decent corner for us.

The Bills will draft a CB for depth- My guess is somewhere in the 4th-5th round.

Hopefully for another 1st...

Unfortunate for Thomas, I liked him.

Too bad about Kevin Thomas had potential and played hard while he was here, Jonathan smith is slow but makes plays he could be a dark horse but i dont see him making the roster

I could see the Bills picking a CB with their top pick if they plan on this being Clements last year here.

I agree... he must have really lost a step from this injury because he was playing pretty well before it. That could have been key depth had he been able to come back. Tough loss.

Yeah, in the whole 20 seconds he played for us the last few years.

Didn't Thomas get arrested this year for Domesitc reasons? He's not a Marv character type player.
