BigAl2526 Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 Wise decision on his part. He was done a while ago. Nice career. 1
uninja Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 Was great seeing him run for the Bills for the 2016-2017 years when the Bills led the league in rushing. He had a good run, earned a solid second contract and picked up a couple of rings in the twilight of his career. Not sure what else he had to prove at this point. 3
LABILLBACKER Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 You may retire an Eagle Shady but a good portion of your heart will always be in Buffalo. Happy Retirement!
BillsShredder83 Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 Seems like a decade since he played here. Weird how team culture changing makes this feel ancient. I remember hearing the trade happen live on WGR and thinking no way that happened. The lone high spot for a few seasons. Thx Shady!
Utah John Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 A guy like Shady was a top back for a few years, and was certainly a high-skill player for most of his career. His career stats MIGHT get him into the HOF but it's not a lock. I hope the voters take into account his exceptional abilities and performances. On the other hand, a guy like Frank Gore who stuck around forever, never being considered a top back in any year of his career, is probably getting in just based on longevity. Seems wrong to me.
First Round Bust Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 pour one and pour one out for Shady and his four years as a Bill. likely our last back we had that could and would be called a "star" or the featured part of the offense...and we traded who for him. ???.. Kiko Alonso (LB)...who spent only 1 year as an eagle before becoming a NFL journeyman...advantage...Bills Kiko Alonso..NFL teams... Buffalo Bills (2013–2014) Philadelphia Eagles (2015) Miami Dolphins (2016–2018) New Orleans Saints (2019–2020) San Francisco 49ers (2020)
