Bills sign 2nd-round tackle Glenn, only Graham to go

BY NICK ST. DENIS

The Bills needed to get a little deeper at offensive line, so they drafted Georgia tackle Cordy Glenn in the second round.

Friday, they signed him, leaving third-round receiver T.J. Graham as the lone unsigned 2012 Bills draftee. Buffalo inked first-round cornerback Stephon Gilmore Thursday.

"Now it's behind me and I can really just focus on working and getting better in football," Glenn told BuffaloBills.com. "I'm at the facility working out and getting to know some of my teammates. It's time to start focusing on the season."

Glenn worked at left tackle all throughout the Bills' rookie minicamp last week, as that's where coach Chan Gailey projects him to be at his best.

At 6-foot-5, 345 pounds, Glenn is a big dude. He'll compete with second-year lineman Chris Hairston for the starting left tackle gig.
