Should The Bills Sign Shelton? Now that he has been released by the Cardinals the Bills could get L.J. Shelton for nothing if they choose.

A bridge or two may have been burned between the two sides since they didn't trade for him which may cause him to look elsewhere.
Henry Update: With Chris Brown injured once again for the Titans, speculation continues about a possible trade between the Bills and the Titans regarding Travis Henry.
