Bills player, per Schefty, to an offer sheet.

A buddy who's a Bill's fan said he played extremely well when called upon last year, fingers crossed he makes it to Minnesota. Probably 50-50. The reason the Vikings did this is that Buffalo has two other backup OTs they really like, so maybe they let this guy go.

Definitely an upgrade.


Yep. Nicely played by Brez here. They offered JUST enough salary for Buffalo to let him go.

Not a great pass blocker but whatever.


Well, they are backups for a reason. Nice upgrade for the swing OT. If Brandel can focus all offseason and through camp at center and draft a guy to compete with him, we should be ok at that spot. Ultimately, I'd rather see a true center get that starting spot, but lets see how it plays out.
