Buffalo Barbarian Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Yea I have a link... http://www.buffalobills.com/photos/photo-gallery/Garth-Brooks-and-Bills-host-kids-football-camp/91085177-d41b-4d5d-b768-609d42b739fc?campaign=tw_buf_pg Him at kids football camp hosted by the Bills... Oh By the way Fred on your way out... Never come back. if they cut him just after that, that is some low crap right there. They should have told him not to do the event and be decent about it.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Ugh...heard from a source he has been informed he is being released... Hate...hate...hate this move... I don't doubt you. Don't feel bad for Freddy. There will be a huge market for him. Perfect fit for New England.
Not at the table Karlos Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 God I hope not. All the tweets about it today is like watching a relative die and not being able to do anything. Fred is and always will be my favorite bill. I hope he wins a super bowl with us and all this is just bull.
BrooklynBills Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Funny how everyone is freaking out about paying a starting 3 time Pro Bowl G $8 mil, but have no problem paying Jackson, who will likely be 3rd or 4th string RB close to $3. This is the NFL. He's 34. It's great he wants to keep playing but he can do it elsewhere for that amount of money. Happens all the time.
Big Turk Posted March 9, 2015 Author Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Heard from who? Do you speak with OBD? Suffice to say its a person with knowledge of the situation that works in the front office. Also suffice to say he was tasked with crunching some numbers regarding Fred versus other RBs...that's all I will say. Edited March 9, 2015 by matter2003
Codyny13 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Was still a better back then cj last year. A wall of famer in my book and a true blue buffalo bill. I don't want this to happen no matter how much it might make sense. He's got 1 year left. I'm goin to brush my teeth now, I have a bad taste in my mouth.
Webster Guy Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 He would retire before he played for the.pats. He's not moving his family from buffalo
Big Turk Posted March 9, 2015 Author Posted March 9, 2015 Tis the season for the" i heard from a guy" posts Come talk to me Tuesday.
sodbuster Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I'm gonna be so depressed when this happens. I really wanted to see him get over the hump.
KellyToTasker Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 If this is true, I'm not a fan of the start of the Ryan era. Get a piece of trash like RI and gets rid of one of the best leaders on the team. Terrible, terrible, terrible move. I agree. This has been a tough week for the fan favorites (Kiko and now possibly Fred). I came around on the Kiko trade - I mean we did get McCoy. But cutting Fred?????? That just sucks. Bills fan forever - but this one will hurt. (Side note: My wife bought me Kiko's jersey for my Birthday in January and I've had my Fred Jackson jersey for a couple of years - I went from having two of the most loved guys on the team to having two "vintage" jerseys in a few short days).
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 He would retire before he played for the.pats. He's not moving his family from buffalo He still wants to play. I have little doubt he would jump at the chance to play for a playoff team.

John from Riverside Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I believed matter when he threw that out there......because its just not gonna be popular
C.Biscuit97 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Bryce brown sucks he should be gone not Freddy lmo. Brown averaged less yards per carry than Jackson. Imo.
billsfan714 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 He would retire before he played for the.pats. He's not moving his family from buffalo BB loves Fred, he will be his new Kevin Faulk
boyst Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 If true this really takes a big steaming **** on what was shaping up to be an exciting off season. It's still exciting just not good exciting.
Punch Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) matter2003 has been around for awhile... I highly doubt he'd post something like this without a legitimate reason. Having said that, it's definitely sad news, whether you think Fred is too old or not. The best Bills roster and staff in 15+ years and he won't be a part of it. Edited March 9, 2015 by Punch
C.Biscuit97 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 He would retire before he played for the.pats. He's not moving his family from buffalo You'd want to stay in the area after you got cut for players you don't think aren't as good as you? Fred would jump at the chance to play for the Pats and I don't blame him. This is crap if true.
