Henderson To Texans: The Bills have already lost one of their unrestricted free agents. Seantrel Henderson has agreed to terms with the Texans. The Bills are quickly running out of options for a veteran quarterback as most of the top free agents are off the market. The Jets signed two of them, Josh McCown and Teddy Bridgewater. That leaves just Matt Moore and A.J. McCarron as viable options. The Bills could also be thinking about going with Nate Peterman and a top rookie next year as well which is a dangerous proposition.
Bills Add Safety: The Bills agreed to terms with a second free agent late this afternoon as they added Saints safety Rafael Bush. He adds much needed depth at the position with Colt Anderson and Shamarko Thomas set to hit the market tomorrow. The deal is reportedly a two year contract worth $4.5 Million. He is 30 years old and played for Atlanta, Detroit, Denver, and had two stints with New Orleans. He has three career interceptions.
Bills Tender Four: The Bills were in an unusual spot where they do not have any restricted free agents but they do have four exclusive rights free agents and have tendered all four of them. That means Nick O'Leary, Logan Thomas, Lafayette Pitts, and Eddie Yarbrough are locked in to the Bills for this season.
Kyle Back: The Bills announced that they have brought back Kyle Williams. He signed a one year deal worth $6 Million with $5 Million guaranteed reportedly. He spoke to the media on a conference call and said "Buffalo is home. It's where I want to be. It's where I want to win." He indicated he planned on coming back at the end of the season. He went on to say, "As eloquently as I can put it, I haven’t exhausted myself in my pursuit of what my dream is, in playing this game, playing for this organization and chasing a championship."
Bills Agree To Terms With DT: Sean McDermott and Brandon Beane have dipped into their Carolina roots for their first big free agent signing. They have agreed to a five year deal with run stuffing defensive tackle Star Lotulelei. He fills the hole created when Marcell Dareus was traded during last season. Loculeleli was a first round pick of the Panthers in 2013 and McDermott was his defensive coordinator. The terms of the contract were not released and it will become official when the league year starts tomorrow at 4pm. Depth Chart. Front Office Page.

Glenn traded to Cincy: The Bills continue to prepare to move up for their franchise QB. The latest move was trading Cordy Glenn to the Bengals. In the deal they swap first round picks the Bills give them their 21st pick and get their 12th. The Bills also give them their 5th round pick, (they had two) and get a 6th rounder (which they didn't have before). If there was any doubt that they are going to move up into the top five to get that QB there can't be anymore. They now have the 12th and 22nd pick in the draft which should be enough capital to move up without giving up any of their 2nd round picks. Glenn couldn't stay healthy and he likely didn't fit into the scheme. The development of Dion Dawkins made him expendable and he will move to left tackle. The move opens up even more cap space as well. Sal Capaccio reports they take a $9.6M dead cap hit but clear $4.85M in cap space that should put them around $37 Million in space for free agency.
