26CornerBlitz Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 So, the guy had 25 carries, and your already deeming him a bust?
Mountain Man Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 No thanks. We don't need sentimentality. We need to remember him as a fantastic running back in his prime, not an old and past it version
TPS Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 The offense would suit him well since he is an excellent receiver and great at picking holes. Given what's behind JW, why not.
Buftex Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Maybe they are just doing this out of respect, with no real intent of him making the team. It seems like they are already kind of deep at the position. We all know, Pegula is pretty sentimental...give Freddie a small, but decent, final paycheck, to thank him for getting us through some dark times...I really can't see him making the final roster...he looked noticeably slower in Seattle.
par73 Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Only a one day thing to retire as a Bill. Otherwise, no thanks.

bilzfancy Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 So, the guy had 25 carries, and your already deeming him a bust?if a player isn't a pro bowl player in his rookie year, he's a bust........ according to some smfh
billieve420 Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 If they put Fred through a workout and he shows them something I wouldn't be against a 1 yr min Vet deal. Fred is a leader and would be a welcome presence in the locker room.
transient Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 (edited) I gained more yards last year than Reggie Bush. https://www.youtube.com/embed/8DYje57V_BY Edited June 7, 2017 by transient
Leroi Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Fred might think he has some "juice" left but we don't. We may consider a 1 day contract to retire as a Bill. Retiring his jersey is out of the question. This is False. Imo

I'm not weighing in on Fred or Not-To-Fred, only with the bolded comment here.. how exactly are we deep at the position? We have Shady, JWill and then nothing, correct?? A bunch of FB's that I dont think we want to be a change of pace back OR a feature back (if injury)

Fred is a leader and would be a welcome presence in the locker room. unfortunately the game is played on the field. A locker room presence means nothing if the guy can't play. Make him an assistant coach then but last I watched him play he looked slow and couldn't make tacklers miss
jeffismagic Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Sean the Wrestler not moving the excitement needle enough for Russ Brandon?
HansLanda Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 I just don't see how Fred can possibly make the 53-man roster when they're going to carry 3x QBs, a load of WRs...and two FBs.

Make him an assistant coach then but last I watched him play he looked slow and couldn't make tacklers miss 3rd down back, great in pass protection, good hands/dump off target I love the idea of bringing FJ back Edited June 7, 2017 by Figster
eball Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 If they kick the tires too hard poor Fred will be riding on rims. This just doesn't make any sense at all.
