WitP: LaBoy, Pisa, Bess

Some bad news regarding Travis LaBoy, from The Arizona Republic:

Outside linebacker Travis LaBoy, released by the club two weeks ago, is scheduled to undergo ankle surgery later this month, casting doubt on his ability to play in 2009.

The surgery was a key factor in the Cardinals' decision to cut LaBoy. The Cardinals are taking a $6.1 million cap charge by releasing LaBoy.

There are two more articles about how Pisa Tinoisamoa would be a good fit for the Bills. The first is from BuffaloFootballReport.com:

As mentioned here on the BFR, Tinoisamoa would be a signature signing for the Bills’ defense. Buffalo didn’t add any major, veteran playmakers to a rush defense that finished 22nd in the NFL.

Tinoisamoa is an instant starter that’d anchor the weak side on Buffalo’s defense. His ability to chase down ball-carriers is ideal for Buffalo’s version of the Tampa 2. At 6-foot-1, 240 pounds, Tinoisamoa is nimble enough to handle the open acreage he’d need to in Buffalo’s ‘D.’

The other story, via 4uhfan, is from RealFootball365.com:

More relevantly, the San Diego native is a good player who’s also a good match for his potential new team. At 6-foot-1 and 240 pounds, he corresponds with Buffalo’s linebacking vision of players whose size is irrelevant because they’re too quick for blockers to catch.

And Stephen Tsai catches up with Davone Bess:

Davone Bess said he's lost a few pounds, and is down to 187, in preparation for the start of OTAs next Monday. He said mini camp follows two weeks later. As for other receivers drafted by the Dolphins, Bess said: "It's football. It's about competition. I'm used to it." Bess will be visiting Hawai‘i in July.
