Stop and think about how competitive the market for large, obese men really is. And then realize that Buffalo tried to ship some of its surplus stock out to Indianapolis. That would be one defensive tackle/resident grumpass John McCargo, in exchange for a second-day draft pick. There was one hitch — he failed his physical with the Colts, and they shipped his ass back to Buffalo. How do you feel about that, John?

“I don’t think anything I say is going to lead to anything positive,” said McCargo, who had consulted with the team’s director of media relations, Chris Jenkins, before addressing reporters at his locker. “I talked to Chris and he told me to tell you all that, right now, I’ve got nothing to say about it. Take it how it is. I don’t know. Maybe one day I will.”

Jenkins then informed reporters that McCargo had nothing else to say. [...]

McCargo has been riding the bench since the Bills bolstered their D-line in free agency this offseason. I can imagine the organization isn’t too pleased with being unable to get rid of him.

“We’re glad to have him back,” said Jauron, who spoke before McCargo. “John’s happy, I think. And we’re happy, so here we go.”

According to numerous reports, McCargo failed his physical in Indianapolis because of a bulging disc in his back. Jauron said McCargo was cleared by the Bills before the trade, though he noted that each NFL team has a different set of standards when it comes to physicals.

Well yeah, there’s the standard of “This guy is healthy and can actually be of service to other teams” clearance. And then there’s the “Ship this bag of ass out of town for whatever we can get for him” clearance. You see, a football team is like a family, and when a member of a family becomes useless, you kick them to the curb and get a new member of your family. That’s what they always told me in the foster homes, anyway.
