MG's running style reminds me of one, and only one player: Fred Jackson. But MG is faster.
If the Bills were a competently-run organization - which they most certainly are NOT - they would match this in a heartbeat with the understanding that MG will compete with JWill and possibly a middle-round 2018 draft pick for the #1RB spot next year (Shady will not be back in 2018, I've become convinced).
But the Bills are not a competently-run organization. Putting aside the emotional bluster of Sea Biscuit and others, they have completely botched this situation yet again.
Consider that the three positions the Bills have lost/are on the verge of losing to NE are: WR, CB, RB. Does anyone doubt that those three positions will all be addressed by first and second round picks this year and next? Want to wager about that? If Leroi is to be believed (and I believe him), 3 of the top 5 on the Bills' big board are WR and CB...
I don't understand how people continue to defend stupidity and incompetence. But I suppose I should understand it - we seem to live in a society where people convince themselves of fairy tales on a daily basis.
