Leroi Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Jackson will be cut as a cost savings measure. Our waterbug will not be back, obviously. 1. McCoy 2. Brown 3. Dixon Imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I think Freddie is the relief guy.....and would fit well in that role sitting behind another star RB. but When was the last time Fred was actually able to stay healthy for an entire season even when platooning? This is where Bryce Brown comes into play. As for as Boobie Dixon? AWESOME special teams and short yardage player. I think all 4 will be kept.....for one more year.

CSBill Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 All four, and after McCoy, I think it is just a rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixon Imo Jackson will not be cut. He may be gently removed at best. and i would be surprised Bills don't draft one and make a strong effort get him into the rotation. If OTA and camp go well enough. whos the FB ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they may give the dignity of retiring but he will NOT be back for camp. 2.7 m is a big cap hit. Imo Edited March 5, 2015 by Leroi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Yeah, they may give the dignity of retiring but he will NOT be back for camp. Imo Thats fair. I hope they do it decently. he has earned every bit of that. Its time for Fred to move on. sad but true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not at the table Karlos Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 This maybe jackson # 2 due to good pass blocking and catching abilities. true. I've been hearing that shady isn't the best pass blocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 (edited) I get the sense that Mr. Jackson will be coaxed into "retirement." I dunno. Just a hunch. Yeah, Fred should not be cut. Retirement may well come and if not, I see him going on IR at some point in the year. Boobie helps on special teams. We spent a draft pick for Brown so why cut him and gamble on another pick lost? Let's hope other teams are picking RB in a deep year at the position, leaving some studs at other positions for us.

Tampa Bob Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I assume that you expect Fred to be #2. I wouldn't count on that. Fred is barely going to be on the field assuming he is even on the team. Best case for him is to be #3. And thank god. Maybe our offense can move the ball a little bit better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QB Bills Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 This is absolutely ridiculous if true. The fact he hasn't spoken up on twitter recently makes me think something like this might happen. Fact: Fred was way better than Bryce Brown last year, and now we're going to cut him? Yes, he's old in terms of conventional running backs, but he actually has LESS career carries than McCoy. This definitely makes the team weaker next year. So much for the win-now mentality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Nails Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Boobie is making this team. Special teams prowess keeps him around. Two blocked punts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew you'd be here spewing that. Fred did look at bit off last year but people have been saying Fred is done for literally for years. I will believe it when I see it, he has been injured the last couple of years, I just hope he can stay healthy. Shady too since our eggs are in that basket now.

HalftimeAdjustment Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I think if they draft another RB then Fred is in trouble. Also get the sense Whaley is not a fan based on what he said about the run game under previous staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
217014170 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 McCoy and Dixon are a lock to be 1 and 2 in 2015. Dixon is a FB and his special teams effectiveness makes him valuable. The draft will dictate where Brown and Jackson will be. Because of the RB depth in the draft they still could pick one late in the draft if the value is there. 2015 will be a "best player available" in areas of need for the Bills. The draft will focus on depth and development as there will likely not be an impact player of need available at the Bills CURRENT draft position in Round 2. TE is the most likely position to be drafted first. They will draft a QB. The priority will always be on keeping the inside strong so beyond the obvious needs on the OL some may be surprised by the focus placed on the D-Line. David Harris is a lock at LB and Revis or McCourty will likely end up in Buffalo. I really think the Bills will go after Iupati and continue to develop last year's draft picks on the OL. You do not trade for McCoy and not spend to maximize his value by getting buys to open holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Front Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I don't see freddy getting cut at this point, he did manage to lead a pretty ineptly coached offense in receptions, and 1,026 yards rush/receiving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
