There is a lot that Buffalo’s newest free agent signings have found appealing in their assessment of the Bills organization over the past 10 days. For Trent Murphy it was the blue-collar, grinder mentality of the team. For Star Lotulelei it was the familiarity with the playbook, and for AJ McCarron it was the opportunity to win a starting job.
For OL Russell Bodine and Marshall Newhouse some of those same things were factors in their decisions to sign too. But for linemen it’s often about who they’ll be working with the most, and for the Bills, offensive line coach Juan Castillo proved to be an asset.
