Free agent Vince Young will work out for the Bills on Wednesday.
We've been projecting Buffalo as a likely landing spot for V.Y. since the start of free agency. Coach Chan Gailey has an extensive history of maximizing the production of scrambling QBs with questionable passing skills. While Ryan Fitzpatrick is entrenched as the starter, Young would be the favorite to beat out Tyler Thigpen for the top backup job. May 1 - 1:03 PM

at this point I'm sure VY will listen to anyone who will talk to him, and I doubt Miami is on that list after bringing in Tannehill, then again I wouldn't have guessed Buffalo would be on that list with Fitzpatrick as a fairly established starter

He can be a factor, he has the Tebow effect. He wins, thru out his career thats what hes done. Only problem is his mental state of understanding nothing is going to be given to him. Hes not suicidal, hes just immature. A big flag for NFL teams.

Per Rotoworld.com:

Bills signed QB Vince Young to a one-year, $2 million contract.
Young was terrible in seven spot appearances (three starts) with the Eagles last season, posting a 4:9 touchdown-to-interception ratio in a West Coast offense for which he's a poor fit. The Bills will hope a humbled Young can upgrade on pricey incumbent backup Tyler Thigpen. Since Young has superior talent to Thigpen, we'd expect the former No. 3 overall pick in the draft to win the job in training camp. Young has enough playmaking ability to enter the fantasy radar if starter Ryan Fitzpatrick goes down. May 11 - 1:00 PM
