Sblesq Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Would seem to me that the Bills would have been better off looking at Bryce Brown and Ray Rice then the guys they brought in. Any thoughts aside from Brown being persona non grata with the Bills and Rice being blackballed by the NFL?
YoloinOhio Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Herron is a better option than either to fill in for Karlos. We are talking depth RBs here. I don't see why Brown or Rice are better than Herron for that role.

Best Player Available Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Rice is in forced retirement. Not a team in the league would touch him. The blowback would be huge.
YoloinOhio Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Rice is in forced retirement. Not a team in the league would touch him. The blowback would be huge.that, and he hasn't been any good in 3 years
BackInDaDay Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 lots of young and healthy RBs around, the trick is finding one familiar with the system to lessen the learning curve.. geez.. 4 weeks in and we're running out 2nd and 3rd teamers already.. think i'll watch our third pre-season game to see some starters
Dorkington Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 I really hope Karlos or Shady is ready to roll this weekend... otherwise our offense is going to be very one dimensional.
Nihilarian Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 The Boobie, Boom, and Wood show! Not playing the Giants #1 defense against the run this week! But Tennessee is ranked 5th !! However, the Titans are currently ranked #1 against the pass, and #1 in total defense

However, the Titans are currently ranked #1 against the pass, and #1 in totall defense they played Tampa without Evans, and Cleveland with Manzeil, in two of their 3 games.

iinii Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Would seem to me that the Bills would have been better off looking at Bryce Brown and Ray Rice then the guys they brought in. Any thoughts aside from Brown being persona non grata with the Bills and Rice being blackballed by the NFL? Brown fumbles. Rice is just done. The tread is off or someone would have given him a look. Running backs are just grist for the mill these days. The Boobie, Boom, and Wood show! Not playing the Giants #1 defense against the run this week! But Tennessee is ranked 5th !! However, the Titans are currently ranked #1 against the pass, and #1 in total defense there is something misleading about that. The Titans have had a bye already.

Any thoughts aside from Brown being persona non grata with the Bills and Rice being blackballed by the NFL? There really needs to be a minimum post count before being able to start a OP
Formerly Allan in MD Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Would seem to me that the Bills would have been better off looking at Bryce Brown and Ray Rice then the guys they brought in. Any thoughts aside from Brown being persona non grata with the Bills and Rice being blackballed by the NFL? Brown is clearly persona non grata with every team in the league.
NewEra Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Was hoping we'd look at Pierre Thomas. I guess he's just done, but I've always liked his skill set
reddogblitz Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 I would have preferred Brown to Herron. Brown did have the costly fumble vs KC but hasn't fumbled since and had a few good games and a good pre season. Herron fumbled twice last year and lost them both. He's a fumbler too.
The Frankish Reich Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Rice is in forced retirement. Not a team in the league would touch him. The blowback would be huge. It would be like signing a racist bully to play left guard! Or like signing a guy who, I don't know, broke his own quarterback's jaw!! Or like drafting a guy who witnessed Jameis Winston's alleged sexual assault but refused to testify in a disciplinary hearing, and who was also involved in a hit and run!!! Or like drafting another guy who was investigated for an alleged sexual assault against his pregnant girlfriend, who posted photos of her injuries on Facebook but then refused to cooperate in the investigation!!!! http://espn.go.com/nfl/draft2015/story/_/id/12810785/buffalo-bills-brass-address-character-issues-draft-picks-karlos-williams-ronald-darby Rice would fit right in.

CSBill Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Wow! In the pre-season this team had on e of the deepest backfields in the league. Four weeks in and we're dumpster diving for someone to play RB for us??? And now its the Boobie and Boom show . . . should be fun. The only real running threat this weekend will be Tyrod, I hope we see more read options and more planned agreesive scrambles (he just seems very hesitant to do that lately?) out of him.
Captain Caveman Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Boom, Boobie and Cierre do sound like a french version of the 3 stooges.
