Bills Notebook: Ty Nsekhe figures to get chance to start along offensive line

‘Nsekhe has been something of a super sub for the Redskins in recent years, serving as the team’s swing tackle. He’s started 16 games over the past four years, but appeared in 54. Even though he’ll turn 34 during the 2019 season, he doesn’t have a lot of NFL mileage, playing just 1,285 offensive snaps the last four years. More than 1,000 of those have come at tackle, although Nsekhe has also taken more than 200 snaps at guard, giving the Bills some versatility.’

Buffalo Bills to sign OT Ty Nsekhe to two-year deal

‘Nsekhe, 33, has one of the most unique career paths in the NFL. He played in the Arena Football League from 2009-2012 before joining the then St. Louis Rams in 2012. He would appear in two games that season, but would not appear in another NFL game until 2015. He bounced around various NFL offseason rosters during this time, appeared in the CFL with the Montreal Alouettes (2014) and had a short return to the AFL with the Los Angeles KISS (2015).’

Buffalo Bills set to sign free agent guard Jon Feliciano (report)

‘The Bills are still expected to be in the market for some of the top offensive and defensive linemen left on the market. Detroit Lions defensive end Ziggy Ansah is scheduled to visit the Bills on Wednesday when free agency begins and Carolina right tackle Daryl Williams, who many believe to be a top target for the Bills ahead of free agency, is still on the market. Keep it locked on NYUP for more details as free agency continues to unfold.’

Buffalo Bills to host DE Ziggy Ansah on free-agent visit

‘As Rapoport noted, Ansah is coming off of shoulder surgery so the Bills will want to see how his shoulder is healing before offering the defensive end a long-term deal. If his shoulder checks out, the Bills may make an aggressive offer to keep Ansah from making his visit with the Saints.’

9 thoughts and a grade on Buffalo Bills signing free agent C Mitch Morse

‘So what are the Bills getting here? ESPN’s Mike Clay had Morse ranked as his top center available in free agency. He’s three years younger than Denver’s Matt Paradis and graded out as a better pass blocker in 2018, according to Pro Football Focus. When you put that into perspective, and consider the talking points we’ve discussed heading into free agency around Buffalo needing to pay more to attract talent, the signing makes all the more sense.’

10 things I think about the Buffalo Bills following NFL’s active legal tampering window

‘Locking down Morse early was wise as Bills fans saw what happened between Paradis and the Jets. New York reportedly held off on making Paradis an offer as they waited to hear back from running back Le’Veon Bell. Perhaps the Jets felt that there was no competition with the Bills signing Morse, but it blew up in their face with Paradis joining the Panthers.’

NYS investigating Trump projects, including failed bid for Buffalo Bills (report)

‘The New York Times reports James issued subpoenas to Deutsche Bank and Investors Bank on Monday for information on their financing of Trump’s Bills bid and four Trump Organization projects. The subpoenas reportedly seek information on loan applications, mortgages, and lines of credit for transactions including the Bills bid, Trump International Hotel in Washington, the Trump National Doral outside Miami, and the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Chicago.’

Bills clearly targeted their most obvious needs this offseason

‘While the Buffalo Bills are putting pen to paper today to finalize the deals they have agreed upon so far this offseason, it’s easy to see the contract figures and feel skeptical — but that’s how free agency goes. Year after year in the NFL, teams pay a high price tag to fill their needs. The positive for Bills fans to take so far is that Buffalo has been aggressive, motivated and focused on filling the biggest holes on the roster. That’s something Bills Mafia should be excited about.’
