Open Extended ReactionsHENDERSON, Nev. -- The Las Vegas Raiders agreed to a trade for Buffalo Bills veteran cornerback Taron Johnson, a source told ESPN on Sunday.
The Raiders are sending a sixth-round pick to the Bills and will receive a seventh-round pick in return, the source said.
The Bills announced Friday that they were releasing Johnson and three other players.
The Bills' cap savings were the same whether Buffalo traded Johnson or cut him outright ($1.9 million).
By acquiring Johnson, the Raiders helped address their need at cornerback -- a position group that lacked talent and depth last season.
