Packers trade Lerentee McCray to Bills for 2018 draft pick

With Tuesday's cut-down deadline fast approaching, the Green Bay Packers have found a way to trim their roster without sacrificing quality players for nothing. The team has traded outside linebacker Lerentee McCray to the Buffalo Bills for a 2018 draft pick.

The Packers signed McCray as a street free agent earlier this offseason with the hopes that the fourth-year man could become a mainstay on special teams and contribute in a reserve role on defense. For his part, McCray performed well during training camp and during the preseason, especially defensively where he regularly generated pressure with his bull rush and finished with a sack.
