The Bills haven't wasted any time in addressing a couple of needs for the 2012 season, as they have come to agreements with WR David Clowney and LB Scott McKillop. McKillop played for Bills DC Dave Wannstedt at Pitt.
| Quote: | | BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Bills are wasting no time addressing their depth at receiver this offseason after free agent David Clowney agreed to a contract with the team on Wednesday. |

I like both these moves a lot. Clowney has real chance to revive his career here IMO. _________________

I like these two moves as well. I think at worst McKillop will be a solid back up and a nice special teamer, but Clowney is puzzling that he really couldnt crack the Panthers regular rotation with Steve Smith and bunch of un proven guys. I know LaFell has come on this season but you would have thought he could have been the third or forth WR at least. _________________

2 low profile singings ... But I definately like it ... Clowney's best year was in 2009 with the Jets. _________________

The McKillop signing intrigues me a little. I get the Pitt connection, but in the draft, he was looked at as almost exclusively a 3-4 ILB. Does this mean we plan on staying with the 3-4? I am probably just reading too much into it and Wannstedt is just giving a former player a chance to make the roster, but it is something to think about.
I also like the Clowney signing, I said last year during UFA that he could of been an under the radar WR that would fit our system, and I still believe that. _________________

Clowney ran a 4.37 40 at the combine in 07, he is also still you too only 26 years old. _________________

I guess I'll put this in this thread, because I didn't see it elsewhere...but...
The Bills, on top of Clowney and McKillop, have signed LB Robert Eddins, DB Prince Miller, DE Jay Ross, G Jake Vermiglio, G Keith Williams. _________________
