    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Bills reach agreement with McCargoThe Buffalo Bills have reached an agreement in principle with one of their two first-round draft choices, defensive tackle John McCargo.McCargo, a 6-foot-2, 302-pound three-year starter at North Carolina State, agreed to a five-year deal worth more than $8 million that included $5.2 million in guarantees. The Bills began practice Friday morning, and McCargo, the 26th overall pick, will try to get to camp at St. John Fisher College in Rochester, N.Y. for the afternoon practice.It's likely, given the turnover in Buffalo, that McCargo will battle for a starting spot as a rookie. At worst, he figures to be a part of Buffalo's tackle rotation in 2006 and log considerable playing time. McCargo has a nice mix of power and quickness and can play either tackle spot. He is one of three former Wolfpack defensive linemen chosen in the first round of this year's draft.He had 134 tackles in 30 appearance, all but one of them as a starter.The Bills still have to work on safety Donte Whitner, the eighth pick in the draft.</div>http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2532320
