Bills agreed to terms with DT Alan Branch, formerly of the Seahawks, on a one-year, $3 million contract.
The veteran run stopper will slide in as a role player behind Marcell Dareus and Kyle Williams. Branch played 575 snaps for the Seahawks last season, grading out in the middle of the pack in Pro Football Focus' defensive tackle ratings. He'll help shore up a run defense that allowed 145.8 yards per game and 5.0 yards per carry in 2012.

Free agent DT Alan Branch will visit the Bills Tuesday.
Per CBS' Jason La Canfora, the Bills are "pretty interested in getting something done." Branch, 28, could slide in as a situational run stuffer behind starting tackles Kyle Williams and Marcel Dareus.

ESPN's John Clayton says that the Packers could have interest in free agent DT Alan Branch.
Branch's new agent also reps Jermichael Finley. It's possible he could be shopped to the Packers as a situational run stopper. After resurrecting his career in Seattle, Branch is likely to settle for a one-year deal near the veteran minimum.

Free agent DT Alan Branch has fired CAA as his player representation agency, and he has hired Blake Baratz.
PFT's Mike Florio says to not be surprised if Branch now ends up in Jacksonville with his former defensive boss in Seattle, Gus Bradley. Branch, 28, turned his career around with the Seahawks, and even after signing Roy Miller, the Jaguars need interior bodies. Branch is a behemoth at 6-foot-6 and 330 pounds.

Scott Chandler
Sidelined
Bills TE Scott Chandler is sitting out full-squad OTAs while continuing to rehab his torn left ACL.
Chandler suffered the injury on December 23 and his training camp status is in question. The 28-year-old's role in new coach Doug Marrone's offense is also uncertain, although Buffalo did little to upgrade tight end other than draft Chris Gragg in the seventh round. Chandler's 2013 fantasy outlook is bleak.

Mike Caussin
Sidelined
Bills re-signed exclusive rights free agent TE Mike Caussin to a one-year, $630,000 contract.
Caussin missed the entire 2012 season as he recovered from a torn ACL. Assuming he makes the roster, Cuassin will provide special teams help and insurance at tight end with Scott Chandler now dealing with an ACL tear of his own.
