ko12010 Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 I think it would be wise to kick the tires on Ray Rice. Fred is on his last leg and Dixon is no longer needed as we have a true FB plus hes slow. Bryce Brown sucks. As for Shady, he will gradually wear down as the season goes on. The depth chart would be as follows. Shady - An East/West runner Rice - A North/South Runner Fred - On his last leg, but honorable and serviceable. Williams - Rodney Hampton in his Rookie season. Can take over next year when Rice, Fred leave. You really want a person like Ray Rice wearing the Bills uniform? I don't. I think a guy like Incognito is about as far as I want our front office to go. Ray Rice is a POS.
Manther Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Those 4 reasons are somewhat stupid IMO. 1. Rex LOVES Rice from his 1 year cross-over at Ravens. I find this hard to believe. Why would the Defensive Coordinator of a team build such strong affection for a 2nd round offensive draft pick that is a backup the year that he is there? He might have LOVED his potential at that point, but that's about all I would think. 2. Run heavy, North-South runner system. Apart from the fact that we are loaded with RBs of all types and styles at the moment, if we are so fixated on needing a North-South style RB it really brings into question as to why we would trade for Shady. Rather than being in need of a N/S style RB, I would think that what we need are RBs that can hit the hole.....which we have in Shady & FJ etc. 3. He's cheap. This reason would apply to every team. 4. Pegula's not afraid of controversy. Name a team that is afraid of controversy. They all are, and aren't, depending on the situation. This would not even be on anybody's radar if not for the tenuous Rex-Rice connection. Agreed, well broken down. It would make no sense at all.
