zazie Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Thanks, Marv. So long, good luck, and goodbye Josh. +1 That was a terrible re-signing he got paid real bucks for a proven mediocre talent. 2 million signing bonus!?!?!? Josh Friggin' Reed?????

buffaloboyinATL Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 but, but... They're both named Reed and played wide receiver for the Bills, they're practically identical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strive_for_five_guy Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Lou Reed is a closer comparison to Andre than Josh Reed is. And Josh is as hot as Donna Reed http://www.broadwaytovegas.com/donnareed.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiew Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 There's no comparison in personality either. Josh is a polite, well mannered, all around nice guy. Andre is an A$$ all the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Alright then. I guess we're done with this "subject." Shall we start a Jairus Byrd/Butch Byrd thread? At least that's a comparison with some validity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 In an article it talks about possibility that this may be Josh Reed's last season in Buffalo.http://www.buffalonews.com/452/story/910070.html Andre Reed was reliable and dynamic WR, willing to go over the middle to make tough catches, underestimated by some and injured when he went into free agency. He caught balls from one of the best QBs in league at the time and probably the best backup QB in league at the time. Josh Reed is a reliable WR and great blocker, willing to go over the middle to make tough catches, underestimated by some and injured when he went into free agency. He caught balls from a collection of QBs bad mouthed by many especially their own fans. When Andre Reed went into free agency there was not a lot of interest partly because he was injured and partly because his stats were attributed to the skill of his QB. Josh Reed is going into free agency injured but not many of his catches will be attributed to the skill of his QBs. In many ways their careers have been parallel. Neither are speed receivers like Evan and Parish were but made the tough catches. Andre had limited interest and went to Buffalo after talking about making his big payday in free agency. Josh has not talked about looking elsewhere but may need to look elsewhere to keep playing since Buffalo has heavily invested already in other WRs. To try and compare Josh Reed to Andre Reed is like trying to compare a Kia to a Rolls Royce. There is no comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid to play football, not be a nice guy. Andre >>>> Josh. By the way TE is a much nicer, much more polite fellow than Tom Brady who left his then pregnant girlfriend for a hotter beeatch. Who do you want as qb given a choice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kettle Creek Football Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I can't believe anyone - including myself - bothered to waste time replying to this post! What a joke. The only thing similar about these guys is their last name. Josh can't even be called a WR when you are comparing to Andre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheChimp Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 When we had decent Qbs, Josh couldn't hold onto the ball. Now that we have JV quarterbacks, he has hands of glue (except for last game) and does go into the tough places to make the catch. But come on, comparing him to a WR that Jerry Rice referred to as the best WR in the league at the time they were both playing? Seriously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
