Front page quote:

The Terrell Owens gamble could bump the Bills closer to the playoffs and maybe save Dick Jauron's job. First, Buffalo must draft tight end help and find a fast fix for its slow-footed

 

Article quote:

The Bills have needs on defense that might supersede the choice to take a tight end -- especially in importance. They have pass-rush woes and could use a rush end in the worst way. They had just 24 sacks in 2008, four from their top three ends.

 

I disagree with Pete Prisco - Bills do have speed at DE but are under powered. Chris Kelsay is not slow but perhaps he is referring not speed but acceleration and he does not have a great burst off the line. Denney is a large size DE who can has good reach, decent at defending in short range zone and can get his hands up and block passes.

 

Later in article:

DL: The interior of the line is set with Marcus Stroud and Kyle Williams starting and John McCargo backing up. Schobel is coming off a Lisfranc foot injury, which is a concern. Kelsay has been a disappointment opposite him after getting a contract extension. They need major help with speed off the corners.

 

Is McCargo staying? I think he means Spencer Johnson.
