LOVEMESOMEBILLS Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Fred is an ALL TIMER as a Bill but the time has come. Whaley has to put on his "Big boy" pants, make the move and take the flak. This board will explode, the crying and whining will be tremendous.......and life will go on. This move is as much about Whaley demonstrating his GM acumen as it is about Fred. and I LOVE Fred!!!!! If the Bills do that Bill Belichick and the Pats* will snatch him up in a second. Playing the Pats* is hard enough without Fred grinding first downs out with the clock expiring. I know Fred's time will come I just think it's after this year or next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockinon Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 somebodys got to knock the old guy off in camp Exactly. Fred is going to make the young guys better. Competition is never a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I don't believe the Bills are planning to cut Fred...they're just providing a lot of competition and paving the way for the future. Fred knows he'll have to prove himself worthy of a roster spot; the guy has never been handed anything. The chips will fall where they may.

#34fan Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 If there's anything at all right with this team, Fred will be wearing a coaching polo next July... This is his last year, but we CANNOT let him leave this organization. No way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffaloed in Pa Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 If there's anything at all right with this team, Fred will be wearing a coaching polo next July... This is his last year, but we CANNOT let him leave this organization. No way. Why ?? We let Thurm Bruce and Andre. Freddy was a average rb on a losing bunch of teams. What a joke. Hall of famers vs Mr. average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What a Tuel Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) Why ?? We let Thurm Bruce and Andre. Freddy was a average rb on a losing bunch of teams. What a joke. Hall of famers vs Mr. average. I thought we disproved this in another thread? Does a new thread mean we can rehash the same false equivalencies and baseless arguments? If you are attacking the cap number, let me know who we aren't signing because of Fred's 2.7 million dollar cap hit Edited May 3, 2015 by What a Tuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Is this still open? Fred is a valuable and shouldn't be going anywhere. wondering .... is there a will player X be cut for each position drafted? CB is this doom for Graham, Robey, McKelvin? WR is this doom for Woods, Harvin, Hogan, Goodwin, Easley? LB is this doom for P. Brown, Bradham? OG is this doom for Urbik, C. Williams, Cyril Richardson? TE is this doom for any of the 3 Gray, Clagg or Gray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanker Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I don't know anything about dignity and how sharp it is, but you'd better be pretty darn careful if you every try to cut Freddie with anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipster19 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) The biggest hint of Brown's tenuous roster status was Rex saying he'll remember his name when he stops fumbling the ball. That said quite a bit to me.I couldn't agree more and wasn't too happy when we traded for him. Who gets cut?? Let's see, a classic career overachiever who is integrated into the locker room, franchise and community and was evened personally endorsed by the owner himself or a career back up that has earned a solid reputation as a fumbler that we traded, a what, a 4th rd pick?? Hmm, I have to think about that one for a minute. I don't think that Whaley would like to make this an issue, he should go along with the company on this one and just try and get some kind of compensation for Brown in a trade. A 2016 7th rd pick from somebody will do just fine and mark this one up under the "Oops" column. In Fred We Trust! Go Bills!

While your mouth is running, don't forget Frank Reich! Fred can coach my running backs ANYTIME... A tremendous asset we should try keep in house... 16 years and counting, people.

vincec Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Probably just send Fred a text that he's gone. Then have his stuff waiting for him in the lobby in a couple of drawstring bags. I think that would be the best way to handle things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Has the time come? You know, I have very much enjoyed your posts over the years... but Fred is my favorite current Bill and Cutting Drew With Dignity might be the greatest name ever on here... so this thread offends me.

dezertbill Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Brown probably won't be on the roster come September. Either cut or traded. We'll probably have four: McCoy Freddie Dixon Williams Felton FB That's a definite upgrade from last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSBill Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Brown probably won't be on the roster come September. Either cut or traded.

BringBackFergy Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I love Fred Jackson. He reminds me of an older Rob Riddick. Stands a bit upright but powers through people for extra yards. It looks like Karlos Williams is like that as well. Time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QB Bills Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Fred will prove to be the best back on the team again this year. It's what he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProcessAccepted Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Fred deserves another year. He has earned it and he still plays at a high enough level. Like other posters have said if we cut him he would be snapped up by the Pats. I have already seen Thurman in a Dolphins uni, I really would hate to see Fred as a Pat.
