Runyan heading to Buffalo next
Posted by Mike Florio on September 10, 2009 3:06 PM ET

After working out for the Eagles on Thursday, veteran tackle Jon Runyan will hop a plane.

And, after the plane stops bouncing, it will fly to Buffalo.

Per a league source, Runyan will travel to Western New York tonight for a Friday meeting with the Bills.

It's an encouraging sign for a team whose offensive line has been in shambles of late, with Derrick Dockery cut early in the offseason, Jason Peters traded to Philly, and Langston Walker recently getting the boot.

In all, four teams are interested in Runyan. The Chiefs, Eagles, and Bills are the three currently known.

Runyan has started every game since 1997. He had offseason microfracture knee surgery, and he recently received clearance to play again.

I really hope Pioli can pull the trigger on the best stop gap option available at RT right now. Can't say I am too optimistic on it happening though. Who would you rather play for, Philly likely going to the playoffs or KC that will have to fight for every win this year?

I wonder if we offered him a contract or not.

He would entertain offers from KC, Philly and Buffalo. Who was the team he would not visit?

The article a couple days ago mentioned the Raiders IIRC.

Surprised no whiny girl has come in to complain about you not posting this news in his "catch-all" thread.

I too hope we make an offer. He might not be the RT he was...but if there's even a chance of an upgrade, I'd like his nastiness around...

I hate it when threads are merged, to much info gets covered up.

I really hope we can get him signed
