Homey D. Clown Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 it's pretty easy to see this really isn't a debate, he was good, but more than likely done, and the team has bigger issues to address in other areas to take a flyer on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Agreed. If he is okay medically, he would be one more quality toy for Hackett to play with. Plus, if he does get injured again, he'd be our 3rd String RB, so really no harm if he signs for vet min. People here are quick to dismiss the idea, but you're right-- the issue is whether Best could be viable competition as our 3rd String RB. Assuming he is medically cleared (huge assumption, I know), I don't see the downside to signing the guy and seeing if he can beat out Tashard Choice. This is all academic, because it seems like he will never be medically cleared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drinkTHEkoolaid Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 He has tons of talent but probably one head shot away from a wheel chair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) Agreed. If he is okay medically, he would be one more quality toy for Hackett to play with. Plus, if he does get injured again, he'd be our 3rd String RB, so really no harm if he signs for vet min. some rosters carry 4 - if he suited up on sundays for a couple carries and left choice inactive - i dont think itd be crazy. if spiller or freddy go down, you can keep him in that 15 snap 5 touch role and let choice leapfrog him on the depth chart. it would be a very specific role, and would have to be cheap and come with medical clearance... but i wouldnt be upset if they went with it. not expecting it at all though.

This is all academic, because it seems like he will never be medically cleared. yup - and the fact that we dont have a young recently drafted hard to replace guy at the 3rd slot makes it easy to discuss RB cuts for that spot. agree choice is unlikely, but its definitely a spot we might see change at.

8-8 Forever? Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 He has health problems and probably won't play again. http://profootballta...ed-jahvid-best/ he is great example of why i never begrudge NFL players for the sometimes huge contracts they sign. it can all be over with a couple of the right kinds of hit. just over, just like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'm Spartacus Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Um, sorry, but no. Its BEST we stay away from this issue. His BEST days are over, and 1 more head shot he BEST be left for dead. He's are real nowhere man, man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I'd really rather the Bills weren't party to Best's death. Yeah, this. I hope for his sake he walks away from football and finds another path in life. Some guys just aren't meant to take the beating you get in the NFL.

Luxy312 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Why do fans constantly do this? Let's find a guy who's prone to injury who never really did anything in his career and give him a contract to play. Why? Also, why sign a player at a position that isn't even one of need. The Bills were the 6th most productive team rushing the ball last season. This might be the Best worst post I've seen in awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Remember when everyone was super pissed that we got CJ and not this guy? No. I don't remember that. People here are quick to dismiss the idea, but you're right-- the issue is whether Best could be viable competition as our 3rd String RB. Assuming he is medically cleared (huge assumption, I know), I don't see the downside to signing the guy and seeing if he can beat out Tashard Choice. This is all academic, because it seems like he will never be medically cleared. It is all academic however I disagree with the idea of Best as our 3rd string RB. IMO it's not optimum to have a guy whose skill set is redundant to Spiller's. I think it would be better to have a 3rd RB who brings something else to the table. For instance the Bills don't have a battering ram-type RB. I'd be more on board with a goal-line, short-yardage back then someone who's an imitation of CJ. JMO.
