Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to both Rapoport and ESPN's Adam Schefter, Kolb agreed to a two-year contract worth up to a maximum of $12 million to $13 million. Those financials suggest the Bills view Kolb -- and nobody else -- as the starter heading into offseason activities. Kolb will compete with Tarvaris Jackson, Aaron Corp and very likely a developmental passer from next month's draft for the chance to replace Ryan Fitzpatrick in coach Doug Marrone's offense. While Kolb makes sense for the Bills (he won't cost Buffalo draft picks, and his price tag is reasonable enough), the signal-caller's stock has plummeted over the past two seasons, and he's no sure bet to win a starting job. ... Kolb was reportedly on the radar of the New York Jets and Oakland Raiders before the Bills moved in. So their respective searches continue.
