The Buffalo Bills have announced that not only is running back Anthony Dixon in town for a visit with the team, but linebacker Brandon Spikes is also in town to meet with the organization.

The Bills have been linked to Spikes for weeks after the team hired former Patriots assistant Pepper Johnson back in January. With the Bills moving Kiko Alonso to an outside linebacker position this year, the addition of Spikes would make even more sense than it did before.

While he isn’t great in the pass protecting category, Spikes is solid against the run which is an area the Bills have struggled in over the past few seasons including finishing 28th against the run last season.
