mabden Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Considering that any contract Jackson signs is a one year deal. And the team he signs with does not make it to the Super Bow. I believe the Bills should sign Fred Jackson to a two week contract, so he can retire as a Bill with a Super Bowl ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uffalo Ills Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 (edited) Considering that any contract Jackson signs is a one year deal. And the team he signs with does not make it to the Super Bow. I believe the Bills should sign Fred Jackson to a two week contract, so he can retire as a Bill with a Super Bowl ring. That would be hella classy. Not sure if that's legal tho (FA officially starts much later, so I'm not sure if he qualifies). /sips koolaid Edited August 31, 2015 by Uffalo Ills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Player Available Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 fred is a man of integrity.

MarkAF43 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 The fact this is a thing and people are supporting it is sad. I get it. Fred was easily one of my all time favorite Bills. My wife has his jersey and is heartbroken. But ultimately the Bills were left with no option. It wasn't in their plan to keep him this year and beyond, so the Bills did what they had to do. It's sad but it's a business and any player can tell you that. Fred has given a ton to this area and we should all be grateful, however we still have a good/very good team to watch and root for.

Because my view of it is set in reality? Fred was everything we wanted out of a Bill. He didn't fit in the plans. My comments are aimed at people wanting to protest at Rex's house and start petitions and all of this ridiculous over the top crap. There's nothing wrong with being upset by it. I know I am.

boyst Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 what is more graceful and professional? cutting a guy who has been on the roster for a bonafide reason to give it to someone who was not on the roster or bringing back a figurehead of the team of ten years?

Fred is my all time favorite Buffalo Bill. I'm not quite old enough to remember vividly the Super Bowl years. My earliest clear memory is Todd Collins at QB. So I caught the decline of Andre, Bruce and Thurman. My wife owns a Fred jersey. In fact, we JUST bought it at the Carolina game. But I would never, ever, as an adult able to function in the real world, think picketing outside the home of the head coach was a good idea.

Chandler#81 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Yes, we'll dig up his remains and parade around him at the 50 yrd line while handing the Lombardi trophy to every fan for a lap around his carcass.
