The Bills have signed 35-year old WR Terrell Owens to a 1-year, $6.5 million dollar contract.  Owens played in all 16 games for the Cowboys last season and he caught 69 passes for 1,052 yards (15.2 avg) with 10 TD grabs.  He also carried the ball 7 times for 33 yards (4.7 ypc) last season.  Look for Owens’ presence to set Lee Evans free on the other side of the field as he has never had a talented player to take away the double team from him.  Owens has now played in 189 games in his NFL career and he has caught 951 passes for 14,122 yards (14.9 avg) with 139 TD passes.  He also has carried the ball 33 times for 197 yards (6.0 ypc) with 2 TD runs in his career.  This is a boom or bust signing for the Bills as Owens could either help them make the playoffs or destroy the team.
