LB Spragan on radar Veteran free-agent linebacker Donnie Spragan is on the Bills' radar and we're hearing he's expected to come to town for a visit with the team today. Spragan is a seven-year veteran who spent the past three years with Miami and three years before that with Denver. He's a 6-foot-3, 242-pounder. He started five games for the Fish last year, and nine in both 2006 and 2005. He was a full-time starter for Denver in 2004. If he signed, he would make competition for a backup outside job more intense. Right now, the outside backups are Keith Ellison, Iowa State rookie Alvin Bowen (just drafted in the fifth round) and Blake Costanzo. Spragan's best spot is on the strong side, which would be behind Angelo Crowell. http://buffalonews.typepad.com/billboard/2008/04/lb-spragan-on-r.html
I liked him as our backup. I dont know how he fits in the new defense but I liked him in the past as a backup. Wish him the best.
