Magic54 Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 I'm kind of embarassed to have to ask this question, but I know this is the best place to do it. Why did the Bills let Sam Gash go?

Magic54 Posted February 6, 2005 Author Posted February 6, 2005 From what I understand, he was 'done'. Thats why the Saints cut him after the Bills, 229750[/snapback] I guess I'm just surprised, because I thought he was still a punishing blocker for us in the 2003/2004 season. It didn't seem like he was on the verge of being finished as a football player. I guess being a fullback really takes its toll on the body, though, and he wasn't young.
JoeF Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 He was still a devastating blocker Magic...the problem was he was not getting to the hole quick enough to be a consistently effective lead blocker. His quick burst was starting to fade and when holes are only there for a split second--that's not good... Great guy, great leader, great player....just age starting to catch up.
d_wag Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 if i recall correctly, gash left as a free agent and wasn't cut....... either way, bills did just fine without him as shelton had a huge year and was a force.......much better lead blocker then sam at this stage........
Nanker Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 He said something disparaging about Bledsoe and NJ Sue had him cut. Just kidding Sue.
JoeF Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 if i recall correctly, gash left as a free agent and wasn't cut....... either way, bills did just fine without him as shelton had a huge year and was a force.......much better lead blocker then sam at this stage........ 229912[/snapback] I believe you are correct d--but I think Sam had expressed interest in signing on for another year with the Bills and the offer, even at the vet minimum, was never made...
