The Bills on Wednesday confirmed that they signed linebacker Chris Draft, a 10-year veteran, and fifth-year safety Todd Johnson. The two were signed to undisclosed terms after working out with the team Tuesday.

Draft has 88 starts in 142 career games, and he played for the St. Louis Rams last season. Johnson, who played under Bills coach Dick Jauron in Chicago in 2003, has 22 starts in 72 games.

The Bills also shuffled their practice squad by signing linebacker Anthony Waters and releasing linebacker Marcus Freeman. Waters was selected by the San Diego Chargers in the third round of the 2007 draft.
