Spikes won't go to a `bad team'
PHOENIX -- The Buffalo News reported this morning that the Bills are close to a trade involving former Bengals linebacker Takeo Spikes. He has been with the Bills since the 2003 season.
Bills general manager Marv Levy is believed to be pulling the strings on the deal. But sources close to the situation say a list of possible trade partners is not known. Bengals officials here at the NFL annual meeting at the Arizona Biltmore have not been available for comment.
It is not known if the Bengals are in the mix. But it is unlikely, given what they say is tight space on the salary cap.
The Bills are trying to save salary cap space.
Though the Bengals have drafted five linebackers in the past three years, they remain thin at the position because of David Pollack's uncertain future following a neck fracture and the league suspension of Odell Thurman.
