Buffalo Bills: Top 6 Free Agents Still Available
By Ryan Brennan
WR Anquan Boldin
The Buffalo Bills still have a glaring need at the No. 2 receiver spot and Anquan Boldin can come in and fill it right away. The ageless wonder has proved time and time again that time will not factor in his production on the field.
Boldin won’t be able to take the top off the defense or provide big-yardage plays, but he can keep the possession going and act as a safety belt for Tyrod Taylor. It’s pretty clear that the Bills will draft at least one wide receiver in this year’s draft, so adding Boldin will allow the team to develop the young talent and still get production elsewhere.
Last season, Boldin recorded 67 catches, 41 first downs, 584 yards and 8 touchdowns. He will be entering his 15th season in the league and will attempt to reach the 14,000 yard mark and 1,1000 receptions on his career.
DE Jared Odrick
Jared Odrick would help add some depth on the Bills’ defensive line. He has experience playing both defensive end and defensive tackle, which would be attractive in the Bills’ 4-3 defensive scheme.
Odrick will be entering his 8th season and is coming off a season that saw him miss the final 10 games. In his career, he has posted 170 tackles, 23 sacks, 5 forced fumbles, one fumble recovery, one interception, 15 passes defensed, 26 stuffs and one block.
Plus, he brings a positive presence to the locker room. Get a feel for him below:
WR Kamar Aiken
Remember Kamar Aiken? He signed with the Buffalo Bills as an undrafted free agent in 2011 and has since spent time with the Chicago Bears, New England Patriots and Baltimore Ravens. Still available on the market, he has seen his most success with the Ravens in 2015.
That season, he was thrust into a big role when injuries depleted the Ravens’ receiving corps. He finished with 75 catches for 944 yards and 5 touchdowns, but would follow that up with just 29-328-1 in 2016.
He would contribute on a depleted receiving corps and will have a chance to regain the momentum he had in 2015. The Bills would still need a No. 2 receiver, but with the other WR additions they’ve made this offseason, they would have plenty of depth. Aiken would add to that.
