The Giants signed him to a 1 yr. contract. Bet he signed with them because they play the Eagles twice a year. I’m curious to know if the Bills contacted him. I still think trying to get Willie Anderson for a year wouldn’t be a bad idea.

The Giants probably signed him because of Osi Umenyiora’s injury and Mathias Kiwanuka’s injury history, actually. He’s good insurance for them.

Interesting that Dickenson made the first group, but not Gaddis, Felton, or McCaskill. Maybe the others are getting interest from around the league…

wow

Dickkinson? That guy looked like an undersized pile of garbage. McCaskill or Gaddis are far more desrving…..

According to BBM....

Bills just added 2 more…. CJ Hawthorne (wr), and Jonathan Stupar (TE)….

Dickinson and Hawthorne have to be considered some pretty big surprises. What is the point of having an 8th WR on the team?

I’m very happy to see that the Bills kept Huggins, Hall, Mace and Buggs. I don’t see the upside in Huggins that some other Bills fans do. He could develop into a player worthy of a roster spot, but I don’t see him ever being any better than that. He is great depth though and I like that he will be pushing Steve Johnson and the other guys to stay ahead of him on the depth chart. I thought Hall looked great in the preseason and has the potential to take over Jackson’s role in a couple seasons. Mace has great size and is perfect depth. We have all talked about Buggs and his potential to be a special teams stud. He is worth keeping around a year to see if he can pull a Jon Corto and make the team as an undersized linebacker and special teamer at some point later in the year or next season. Stupar is undersized, but was kinda productive considering he was a backup to Tom Santi. He is decent depth for now at least and it is great to see the Bills addressing the tight end injuries, but I doubt he sticks around all year if Schouman and Fine heal up.
