Buffalo716 Posted July 13, 2018 Posted July 13, 2018 People who say Fred was average are nuts lol its not all about the rushing yards.. he was battling 1st round picks and splitting carries most of his career its the total body He had 5 seasons with over 1000 yards from scrimmage He LED the NFL in all purpose yards before... He was a punt and kick returner for us at one point and a slot receiver... he even has lined up at FB In 2009 he become the ONLY PLAYER IN NFL HISTORY to rush for 1000 yards and have 1000 return yards in the same season He was the best and most consistent player on our offense for a long time. NFL players and commentators have called him a star

I've thought about "wall of fame" for him for a while. I'd give it to him. I'm not completely sold on it, but I also wouldn't argue if he was put up there. The dude was a harda$$ and always gave it 150%. 1
BillsfanAZ Posted July 13, 2018 Posted July 13, 2018 I think for the next 5 yrs anytime the Bills need RB depth that fans here will be throwing Freds name in the ring.
