Bills sign DE Maqrk Anderson to a 4 year deal.

Bills signed DE Mark Anderson to a four-year, $27.5 million contract, with $8 million guaranteed. Look for Buffalo to release DL Dwan Edwards in the coming days. Anderson is a one-trick pony pass rusher, but he will add explosiveness off the edge in Buffalo's nickel package. The 29-year-old racked up 12.5 sacks and two forced fumbles in New England last season, including 2.5 playoff sacks. With Mario Williams set to play left end, Anderson figures to be the Bills' primary right defensive end, rushing off the weak side. With stud tackles Marcel Dareus and Kyle Williams plugging the interior, you can make a good argument that Buffalo now has a top-five defensive line in terms of sheer talent.

So, also a little bit of addition by subtraction as Anderson resurrected his career with the Patriots last season, leading them in quarterback pressures with 36 and boosting a pass rush at a time when they most needed it following some key injuries.

Nice move by Buffalo, they will now get a ton of pressure from line alone, allowing them to keep Lbs in coverage. Buffalo is starting to look really attractive.

Buffalo is quietly building a giants-like D... if your d line is bumrushing through the o line and smashing the QB who cares who your DB's are
