Bills Trade McCargo to Colts
Buffalo Bills defensive tackle John McCargo has played his last game in Buffalo as he was traded to the Indianapolis Colts for a 4th round draft pick today at the trade deadline.
McCargo struggled in his 2-plus seasons with the Bills. The former 1st round pick played in 25 games with the Bills, amassing 35 tackles and 2.5 sacks.
Many will label McCargo as a bust, seeing as the Bills traded up in the 2006 draft to select him in the 1st round and he did not start one game in his time with the team. He never played to his potential and was outshined by a 5th round selection, Kyle Williams, who is currently the Bills starting DT next to Marcus Stroud. McCargo was also injured frequently and even reported to camp overweight this off-season.
This trade is not going to greatly impact the team seeing as McCargo was barely playing. It will just give the Bills another draft pick at the end of the year to try to build on an already strong nucleus of young talent.
Unless for some reason you went on and bought a John McCargo jersey, no one in Buffalo is going to be angry with this trade.
