TPS Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 Saw a brief piece on Yahoo fantasy FB about him. Getting some props. I was sorry to see him get picked off the PS a few years back.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 As a person who has Mikel LeShoure on his team, I hereby veto this thread.
Captain Hindsight Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 At the time we had CJ, Freddy and Lynch. Hes a nice story but a pretty average back IMO
NoSaint Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 As a person who has Mikel LeShoure on his team, I hereby veto this thread. Seconded. At the time we had CJ, Freddy and Lynch. Hes a nice story but a pretty average back IMO Agreed. Even now he'd be 6 of one half dozen of the other measured up against a guy like choice. Detroit has injuries and depth issues and someone is going to get those fantasy points in their backfield but I don't think he will have a much publicized career. Good to see him have his 15 minutes though- even if I don't sound like his biggest supporter it seems he's willing to work hard to find his chance and I will enjoy seeing him try to make the most of it.
Charles Romes Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 He fumbled on the bears 1 a few weeks ago
NoSaint Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 He fumbled on the bears 1 a few weeks ago I mean, what kind of running back would fumble at the goal line. Certainly not one of ours.
T master Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 I always liked the guy thought he would have made a good player for us but didn't make the cut but i am happy to see him playing for a NFL team !!
Stealth Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 Yeah we should've kept Bell. He'd look great with promising potential as our #4 rb
finhater Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 i dont know i think i'd rather have bell than choice
NoSaint Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 Yeah we should've kept Bell. He'd look great with promising potential as our #4 rb I won't argue we should've kept him but a 4th option isn't crazy. We were lucky that spiller and Jackson got healthy so quickly. Heck, look what Chris ivory did for the saints on Monday with sproles sidelined. Bells skillset doesn't see. Too hard to replicate though, so I'm down with letting him go and saving the roster spot for someone a bit more rare in talent.
Mark Vader Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 At the time we had CJ, Freddy and Lynch. Hes a nice story but a pretty average back IMO Doesn't really matter. If Bell were still with us, Gailey would just use him as a decoy like he does with all of our RB's.
Mark Long Beach Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 Article about him doing well in Detroit. I was rooting for him, but he was struggling with the speed of the pro game when he first came in. Good to see that he's been catching on. http://espn.go.com/espnw/8605906/espnw-53rd-man-detroit-lions-running-back-joique-bell-terrific-closer
Sisyphean Bills Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 It's hard to take a name like that seriously.
C.Biscuit97 Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 If only the Bills could evaluate other positions like they do running backs. It is hilarious that we maybe the #1 NFL team for finding rbs in a pass first league.

It is hilarious that we maybe the #1 NFL team for finding rbs in a pass first league. What is more hilarious is that the 1st round RBs the Bills draft hit their prime after they are traded for 4th rounders.

Yeah, but there were a lot of other factors with Lynch. And Willis was a backup rb for Baltimore. If you play with a running QB and Peyton Manning, you will put up #s.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted November 10, 2012 Posted November 10, 2012 It's hard to take a name like that seriously. That ain't no joique.
BiggieScooby Posted November 10, 2012 Posted November 10, 2012 McGahee, Lynch, Spiller all have 1 thing in common: 1st round draft picks ranked #1-2 in their draft class. Perhaps we can spend 3 1st round picks over the next decade & I will bet we find our starter for the next decade.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted November 10, 2012 Posted November 10, 2012 Doesn't really matter. If Bell were still with us, Gailey would just use him as a decoy like he does with all of our RB's. Right.... Can he line up at wr? That key when chans talking rb. McGahee, Lynch, Spiller all have 1 thing in common: 1st round draft picks ranked #1-2 in their draft class. Perhaps we can spend 3 1st round picks over the next decade & I will bet we find our starter for the next decade. The first two you mention also went to probowls and played their best after leaving buffalo. Lets hope spiller is not a repeat
