Though I didn't even list them as one of the five teams I thought would be a good fit for Terrell Owens, the Buffalo Bills appear to be a nice landing spot for the free agent. The Bills agreed to terms with Terrell Owens on a one-year, $6.5 million contract over the weekend.
It is totally out of character for them, but the fact they did a one-year deal seems to make a lot sense. Owens will have something to prove and with a potential of one last big payday waiting in the wings, T.O. is going to be motivated.
Owens joins Lee Evans to give the Bills their best receiving duo since Andre Reed and James Lofton paired up to give Jim Kelly some formidable targets.
The addition of T.O. is huge for Evans, who has struggled as a No. 1 through quarterback transitions and without any help opposite of him.
Owens and Evans have been two of the NFL's three best receivers when it comes to touchdowns of 30 yards or longer. Owens leads the way with 15, while Evans is tied with three others for third with 10.
Trent Edwards appears to be the real deal at quarterback and now he'll get his chance to prove it.
