The Bills have received defensive tackle Darwin Walker and a late 2008 draft pick for QB Kelly Holcomb and LB Takeo Spikes. The Bills figured that they have replacements for both Holcomb and Spikes, but they needed defensive line help so this trade really helps them. Darwin Walker played in all 16 games for the Philadelphia Eagles last year and he made 36 tackles, had 6 sacks, 1 interception, defensed 3 passes and forced a fumble. This was a good trade for both teams.

This was a good move for the Bills in case they wind up without a big-time back. The A-Train played in all 16 games last season (2 starts) and he carried the football 107 times for 378 yards (3.5 ypc) with 2 TD runs. He also caught 22 passes for 139 yards (6.3 avg). Thomas has played 6 seasons in the NFL and he has rushed for over 1,000 yards in two of them.

Kiwaukee Thomas looked around in free agency to find a starting job but he realized that Buffalo was his best opportunity to start now that Nate Clements has left in free agency. Thomas played in all 16 games last season and he made 50 tackles and defensed 5 passes. Look for him to start this season for the Bills.

It seems to me like the Buffalo Bills got kind of stiffed by the Ravens in this trade. The Bills will receive a 3rd round and 7th round pick in 2007 and a third round pick in 2008 for McGahee. McGahee played in 46 games for the Bills in his career (40 starts) and he carried the football 868 times for 3,365 yards (3.9 ypc) with 24 TD runs. He also caught 68 passes for 503 yards (7.4 avg).Â

After the Bills reloaded on the offensive line last weekend they decided that they didn’t have any room left for Tuten Reyes so they cut him loose. He started six games last season for the Buffalo Bills.
