Bills Get Comp Pick: The Bills were awarded a compensatory pick in this year's draft by the league today. They will get an extra 7th round pick, the 248th overall pick in the draft. The Bills are one of 19 teams to get a comp pick and are one of only three teams to get one without having a net loss in free agency last year. The Bills at this point now have nine picks in the upcoming draft.
Denney Signing Official: The Bills made the signing of Ryan Denney official this afternoon. Denney said he wanted to see what was out on the open market and then decided his best opportunity was in Buffalo. He did visit with the Chiefs where his former DL coach Tim Krumrie is but decided Buffalo was the best place for him. He looks forward to playing for new DL coach Bill Kollar and hopes to push for a starting job this season.
Jackson Shines: Another week is over in NFL Europe and Bills allocated RB Frederick Jackson had another solid performance. He had 199 all purpose yards. He ran for 63 yards on 16 carries and caught 4 passes for 56 yards in his team's 22-0 win. QB Craig Ochs got his first playing time of the season and performed well. He completed 12 of 15 passes for 125 yards and a touchdown. He had an impressive QB rating of 123.6. The other QB in Europe, Tory Woodbury did not play the position but he did see action on special teams. he downed a punt deep in the opponents territory. S Rob Lee added one tackle in his team's 31-14 win.
Texans, Eagles Interested In Moulds: It appears the frontrunners to get Eric Moulds are Houston and Philadelphia. Denver and New England have also been named as possible destinations for the Bills wide receiver. Moulds' adviser says that there is interest on both sides for a deal to get done. The Texans would have to work out a new contract with Moulds and then make a trade with the Bills. A league official told a Texas newspaper that the Bills are reportedly asking for a 4th round pick in return for Moulds. Moulds supposedly has a wish list of five teams he wants to play for and the Eagles top his list. That list does not include Houston. Besides Philadelphia, Eric reportedly wants to play for Denver, New England, Seattle, or Kansas City. The Chiefs have not heard from the Bills about Moulds but the Eagles acknowledge having some interest in acquiring his services. If a deal can't be worked out with any team the Bills are likely to release him. One GM agreed with the Bills that his numbers are out of whack and he won't receive anything like that from the open market unless a losing team like the Texans ante up that much money. He may be willing to take less to play for a contender.
Edwards To Chiefs: The Bills have lost another of their unrestricted free agents. Ron Edwards has agreed to terms to join the Kansas City Chiefs. Herm Edwards knows Ron Edwards well from coaching against him with the Jets and called it a great signing.
Losman On Block? Rumors have persisted for about a week now that the Bills are shopping J.P. Losman in a trade. Today's Buffalo News reports that two scouts say they have heard that the Bills are interested in shipping Losman. This would be a surprising move since the team would take a $3.6 Million cap hit. Granted they have the space but they wouldn't get anything in return near the number one pick they used on him two years ago. Not to mention all it cost them to move up to get him. Why would you give up on a player that has started a grand total of eight games in his career? They can trade him for a song and it could be the best deal another team makes if he blossoms.
