PortlandiaEast Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I have to say Boobie. His special teams ability makes him more valuable that a here and there running back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkington Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 (edited) I have a feeling it's going to depend on need, and who's healthy. Brown is more like McCoy in how he runs, imo... while FredEx and Boobie are more the bruiser/tough yard guys, especially since Fred has been focusing on strength the last couple of seasons.

YoloinOhio Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 (edited) Brown. He's a power back with speed. Dixon will be mainly ST. IMO. Edited March 4, 2015 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not at the table Karlos Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I think the rb depth chart goes like this. 1. Shady 2. Brown 3. Jackson FB/short yardage Boobie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OntarioRV Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 The 3rd back is between Jackson and Boobie. Time to move on man. I am guessing this Fred Jackson's Buffalo farewell tour this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am guessing this Fred Jackson's Buffalo farewell tour this year. People keep saying that, and mathematically, looking at his age, it makes sense. But there's no proof on the field that he's slowing down. Not saying he's gonna last forever, but he has atleast 2-3 years left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderstealer Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Brown should be out. Roster spot used for late round RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is showing some signs, the problem with most running backs though , is that sometimes there is a pretty sudden drop off. It could happen this summer. This will likely be his last season. But he is special, I wouldn't count him out. Edited March 4, 2015 by klos63 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtDart Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I have to say Boobie. His special teams ability makes him more valuable that a here and there running back. Boobs becomes the 2nd, Fred will sustain another injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But dudes still a beast with atleast two years left. Plus what he provides the locker room is invaluable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there's no proof on the field that he's slowing down. Not saying he's gonna last forever, but he has atleast 2-3 years left. Buffalo Joe, i respectfully disagree. i love Fred as most of us do. I love his leadership. My only jersey I've ever owned in 47 years is Fred's. With that said, he looked slower last year. He just didn't have that burst he's had in the past. You can postulate a RB best friend is Guards as they create cut back lanes, so I'll give you that as we know we had the worst Guards in football outside of the Bucs. I just see Fred having his swan song this year, goes out with pride, and on top. I see him announcing his retirement, and if we win that last game, I see his teammates carrying him off on their shoulders as they should leaving like "Rudy". I hope that's the way it ends and he retires vs. keeps fighting. If we get Lupatti, and with Incognito, we end up having a much better running game, and it wasn't him, great, but I doubt it.

KDIGGZ Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 McCoy and Fred as it stands. Although I'm hoping they draft a guy in the 3rd. I don't think Boobie should be carrying the ball unless it's short yardage. Brown hasn't shown anything as of yet to even be on the team unfortunately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Wow I am shocked at the level of Brown dislike. I love me some Freddy, but I have to agree with Kelly. Fred definitely seemed slower and he didn't pick up the tough yards the same way as previous years. I think he falls during camp and possibly gets cut.

DrDawkinstein Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Boobie has already played in a Greg Roman offense, and he basically played FB. So I think it'll shake out as 1. McCoy 2. Jackson 3. Brown. But really it'll be more like 2a and 2b, keeping Freddy rested for the long haul of a season and the playoffs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Cat Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I get the sense that Mr. Jackson will be coaxed into "retirement." I dunno. Just a hunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
