He can play.
Pretty apparent that the Bills goal this offseason was to add quality backup depth and to add guys who could play ST's.

All about it. Good, low cost gamble.
So what's Rivers story? I see he was a top 10 pick in 2008, but obviously didn't live up to expectations. What were his issues?
We're now at 5.5- 7.5 mill in cap room if we save 6 mill for rookies.
That's my guess.
Still enough for Spikes or Oher but probably not both without another move.

Are we taking about this guy?
The Mexican & too!!
- Adriano & Emiliano, the next Villa & Zapata. Viva Mexico, cabrones!!! -
Polian gives him a C:
A veteran OLB with speed, instincts and short-area burst to the ball, Rivers is decent as a cover linebacker, but strength and consistent punch are lacking.
PFF has him down in the 20's but above Daryl Smith and Vilma:

Yea but who knows the way the contracts are structured. Just because it averages 2.5 million a season doesnt mean that they are paying 2.5 million this year. If that was the case, how did the Saints with their cap situation manage to sign Byrd for 9 a year. I would suspect its a low first year with a bigger 2nd year. Just my opinion.
He ranked 11th among OLBs against the run last season according to PFF. My guess is he is going to start or compete to start and Kiko is staying in the middle.
Graham is saying half is guaranteed.
I think it was Hines Ward who clobbered Rivers in his rookie season and busted his jaw so badly that they put him on IR. His career hasn't gone the way anyone had predicted, but I don't think the book is closed on this guy.
