The Buffalo Bills continue their free-agency spending spree. This time, another player looking to make a position switch lands in Orchard Park. Former St. Louis/Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks safety Maurice Alexander was signed to a one-year deal to play...linebacker. At 220 lbs (per Pro Football Reference) Alexander comes in just a few pounds lighter than Matt Milano. For linebackers, Milano comes in on the lighter end however. Compared to safeties, Alexander is roughly 20 lbs heavier than Micah Hyde and 30 lbs heavier than Jordan Poyer. Coming in firmly between the two positions, it’s likely Alexander will be looking to carve out a role as part of a heavy nickel package.
