Orchard Park, NY - They've signed two free agents, a center and a backup quarterback, but it looks like the Buffalo Bills aren't finished yet.  They're reportedly ready for a new round of free agent visitors this week, as they try to bolster their roster.

Sources tell us former Colts and Jaguars LB Mike Peterson has a free agent visit scheduled with the Bills later this week.  He's an 11-year NFL veteran who's had trouble staying on the field in Jacksonville in the last two seasons, because of injury.

Another linebacker on the Bills radar screen is veteran Cato June.  He's reportedly headed to Buffalo for a visit on Wednesday.  June is considered a prototypical Tampa-2 linebacker, with experience in Indianapolis and Tampa Bay.  He was cut by the Bucs last week.

And the Bills will also reportedly entertain veteran RB Kevin Jones.  He spent last year with the Bears, after playing several years before that with the Detroit Lions.

The Bills have a number of other free agent visits on tap for later this week. They're said to be looking at wide receivers and defensive ends who may be on the market.  They still await a decisison from former Jets WR Laveraneus Coles, but sources tell us the Bills are not inclined to significantly  sweeten their offer to Coles in an effort to sign him.
