jwolf02 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Quick recap of Fred on The Blitz; sorry for any typos... ----- Jim Miller: Congrats! Feels good? Freddy: It does feel good. Good to get it done now so we can focus on football. Excited to be here. Great moves in offseason, we're all excited. Great fan base; thanks to agent, thanks to Buddy and Ralph. Rich Gannon: Seems like it took forever, you were having a great season; what took so long? FJ: I think they just had some other FA's they needed to take care of; also some guys like Mario. I knew that, and Buddy told me we would get something done. JM: I love seeing good guys get rewarded, all you do is produce! Talk about the chip on your shoulder. FJ: IT's one of those things, early in my career I was told I wasn't good enough. Someone finally took a chance and now I don't want to let them down. I want to show every week it's a great investment to have me here. I don't like being told I can't do something, so it's fun to show I can do it. RG: Unbelievable story, out of Coe College, arena football... tell your story. FJ: Worked out with GB, Broncos, Bears, all said I wasn't good enough. GB scout told me to get more film so I went indoors. Met Coach Levy and he followed my career, he gave me a workout and took advantage. JM: Talk about the offseason, a positive vibe around the Bills: It's exciting... buzz in the locker room. We know the signings mean nothing, we need to play football, but the pieces are coming into place... some additions + the draft, it can help us get to the next level. Not gonna be easy, but we've got an opportunity to make some plays. RG: 4-1 start, scoring a lot, struggled after the bye... but defense was bad. Feel better about the D? FJ: Scouting dept did a great job in FA. Mario is going to be a great addition. Can change things on the field. We love it on offense. He's going to create short fields, more possessions. More opporunities to score points. Great additions on D. We're excited. JM: Showed ability to score points next year; big tackle Cordy Glenn, TJ Graham speedy, where is the offense headed? FJ: We feel like it's all on us to go to the next level. More than anything, allows for us to get everyone back together, be consistent, getting everyone back allows us to go make plays. Coach does a great job, they're working their butts off, we're looking forward to it. RG: How you feeling with your leg? 100%. It was a BS break, non weight bearing bone. Could walk after 2 weeks. 100% now, training, weights, everything like normal. Very excited about everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
