Captain Hindsight Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Practice gets delayed and Fred gets a raise. I'm calling conspiracy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 This isn't a bad move. He is still productive and is a team leader. He will fill the role of mentor. I think that the Bills should bring back Spiller as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Another indication that Spiller's days are numbered. Congrats to Fred, surely he will retire a Bill. Hope they send him out with a playoff win or two! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qblax16 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 If this affects a deal with Spiller, I hate it. I do love some Fred Jackson, but man, we traded a top 5 back once, and if we lose spiller we'll probably see him excel elsewhere (maybe not top 5).

Kelly the Dog Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I'm just sayin', this is total conjecture, I'm just sayin', but this is strange timing by the front office, and really something Terry Pegula would do. I'm just sayin.' Unless, I guess one could argue, that Russ Brandon knows he's on his way out and wanted to do a little something for Fred for his service all these years. My money is on Brandon staying in his job though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills backfield will look like the Saints when Marrone was there. They had a bunch of guys that brought different skills. It may look like the Earth, Wind and Fire backfield that the Giants had a few years back. Edited July 30, 2014 by Kirby Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may look like the Earth, Wind and Fire backfield that the Giants had a few years back. Which they need, considering their developing QB. They need the D to stack the box and give EJ some open options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubes Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Love it. Sounds like a one year extension, but it's totally worth it. Don't think this means anything for Spiller. One of the best Bills ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
