RB Fred Jackson released

Exactly. Roman, Ryan, and both Pegulas would be pissed if they thought that had anything to do with it. I would bet anything this was something they all spoke about, load out the reasons and possible scenarios and decided this together.

 

Yes, I'm quite confident this was a decision made looking forward to the 53-man cutdown and considering the best interests of the team, with everyone at the table.

If he ends up on the Pats, how will people react? Will they root for him? (Side note: I doubt he ends up on the Pats even though he's had so many great games against them over the years.)

 

I'll root for him but not the team. I'll hope he puts up solid numbers and does a good job in a losing effort.

The sinking feeling in my stomach says so yes. He's a better RB than anyone on this roster not named McCoy. Boobie proved he can't handle the load and Please remember this post, hoping Karlos Willimas will let a lot of fans down. He was an average tweener at FSU who lost his job to a true freshman. He's not a RB, he's a athlete without a true position and also has had fumbling problems. He will bomb mark my words. There is no replacement on this team for Freddy, not in a backup role or a leadership role. Terrible move.

you are "hoping Karlos Williams will let a lot of fans down?" Mark your words? What kind of post is this?

I get the Fred Love. I share it. What I don't get is why fans feel the need to trash and ill-wish other Bills players in their hurt and sorrow over cutting Fred.

Cleveland needs a RB. But I'd look for a contender to pick him up. Belechek loves him. The Colts? Seahawks? Cowboys?

 

My guess is Cowboys or Pats.

cowboys would be close to his hometown, right?

 

id think hed want a shot at a winner, but hes never seen the astronomical pay day that some guys do, so money may play a bigger part than expected still.

He's has one fumble in the last two years (not a ton of touches, but still).

 

I think a lot of people here have not looked at Fred's fumbling stats for the past few years. 8 in the last two years.

 

 

Exactly, I think the fumble sticks out because it was such a stupid fumble and cost us the KC game. However, when your head coach says referring to Brown " I will remember his name when he learns how to hold onto the ball." I think even the coaches think he has a fumbling problem. Jackson put the rock on the ground quite a bit the past few years. I am okay with the move, sad to see Fredex go. He was truly one of the good guys in the NF. Class act.

I don't think you can underestimate this point. Whaley's made some curious moves since he became GM and Jackson isn't a Whaley guy.

 

At the same time, I think Rex has final say and he's not a FJ guy either.

 

Still stinks. Bad

 

I think the fairer point is that Whaley and Rex aren't "34-year-old RB with bad wheels" guys.

its the kind of post that we would mark as incredibly embarrassing if we saw it on another teams board.
