Davis Visiting? A report out of a Denver TV station says the Bills will be hosting free agent LB Andra Davis today and tomorrow. He was released last week by the Broncos after spending one season with Denver. He played his first seven seasons in Cleveland and is considered a top tackler who added 3½ sacks last year.
Kennedy Stays In Minnesota: Jimmy Kennedy's visit with the Bills ended with him leaving town without a contract. A day later he has signed a two year deal to stay with the Vikings. He said he liked what he heard in Buffalo but returning to Minnesota and other free agent visits remained in option. The Bills have now signed just one free agent and had just three visits overall.
Kennedy Visits Today: Free agent Jimmy Kennedy actually visited One Bills Drive today. He likely arrived last night but toured the facility today.
Bills Re-Sign Klopfenstein: The Bills agreed to a terms with free agent TE Joe Klopfenstein. He was on and off the Bills roster during the second half of the season last year and received minimal playing time. He was a restricted free agent who was not tendered a contract so he was free to sign with any team. Front Office Page.
Kennedy Reportedly Visiting: NFL Network reports that Vikings free agent DT Jimmy Kennedy is scheduled to visit with the Bills today. Kennedy has not lived up to his expectations as a first round draft pick by the Rams in 2003. Kennedy has played exclusively in 4-3 defensive schemes so it is unclear if he is big enough to play nose tackle in the Bills 3-4 defense.
Hamdan Finds A Home: Former Bills third string QB Gibran Hamdan has found a job north of the border. He has signed with the Toronto Argonauts. He was courted by the Argos before the 2008 season as well. In other Bills free agent news, Terrell Owens apparently will not end up in Cincinnati. He visited there but left without being offered a contract. The Bengals have since signed Antonio Bryant. Front Office Page.
No Word On Schobel's Future Yet: Today was the day the Bills were suppose to pay Aaron Schobel a $2 Million roster bonus but it has not been paid yet and that is fine with Schobel. He told AP that he has yet to decide whether he will play this year or retire. He needs to pass a physical in order to collect the bonus and he is in no rush to do either. He recently had surgery on an elbow injury suffered last year. He said if he doesn't retire he will only play in Buffalo ruling out a possible trade. He is expected to play defensive end or outside linebacker in the new 3-4 defense.
Green To Play Right Tackle: The newest Bill addressed the media in a conference call last night after agreeing to a deal. Cornell Green says he can play both tackle positions but he is more of a right tackle and that is where he'll play for Buffalo. He will be the replacement for retiring Brad Butler. He said he is looking forward to coming to Buffalo because of the tradition of the organization. He says he loves to run block and will bring leadership and experience. He said he had a couple of other visits planned but canceled them to sign with the Bills.
Owens To Cincy? There is some news regarding some of the Bills own free agents. Terrell Owens is scheduled to visit Cincinnati today where he could be lined up opposite Chad Ochocinco. Jonathan Scott reportedly has signed with the Steelers.
