vincec Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) Devin Hester is still out there if it's ALL about PR... Would have been a better signing, IMO.

26TrapDraw Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Is it me or does it seem like Reggie Bush has had a nice helping of humble pie? He seems like the comfortable veteran already and i think he will be great to have in this backfield with Shady especially in a two back set and on 3rd downs. Roman must be licking his chops as he has to be accounted for coming out of the backfield even still as he can still run. Liking it a lot good low risk pick up.

The Frankish Reich Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 @AdamBenigni #Bills Reggie Bush: "I had to remind some people that I still got it." Interview and story at 10&11 @wgrz I think I need some more reminding. I have to say I haven't paid a whole lot of attention to Reggie Bush over the last few years, so when I saw that the Bills signed him I instinctively thought "well, at least he'll add a big play threat." But then I looked at this: longest gain from scrimmage by year (I won't count last year): 2014: 28 yards. That's on 76 rushes and 40 receptions 2013: 77 yards 2012: 65 yards 2011: 76 yards And his last kick/punt return of over 16 yards was in .... 2010. That's a long time ago (but admittedly very few attempts since then too) So while I'm not going to get all worked up about signing an aging 3rd down type running back and occasional (and probably not very good) punt returner, I'm definitely not expecting a whole lot from a 31 year old back coming off a major injury who last showed any explosiveness in 2013.

machine gun kelly Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 We all love Fred, but come on, Thurman was an all-time great. Well said. Fredex is the only jersey I own, but I'm fine with Bush wearing 22 if that is his number since college. The only number I'm aware we retired is Bruce's number. I'm not sure how to even search other numbers retired by the Bills. Let's just hope he can have some electric punt returns and maybe once worked into Roman's system can add a couple of interesting plays with two back sets.

BillsFanForever19 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 The Fred Jackson ship has SAILED. Let it go! As for #22 - he's not Thurman Thomas. I respect Fred and he gave us some good years. But in no way was he a "retire the number" player. I'm not even sure he's 'Wall of Fame' material. He made something out of nothing. But he never had the quickness and shiftiness that Reggie Bush has. Even at the age Reggie is now. If he went to Seattle last year and managed to play well, i'd understand. But he proved Whaley's point. Marshawn was hurt and Fred still slid down the depth chart. He's done. The team was done with him well over a year ago. Move on.

I think you could have left out 94 though. You just named three legendary Bills, and one guy who quit on the team. I doubt anyone around is nostalgic over the number 94. Great talent? Yes.

KDIGGZ Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Man, you must have been fuming then when Lee Evans wore #83 CBF Andre gave permission: When Lee Evans came to the Bills as a number one draft choice in 2004, he was issued number 84. Having worn jersey number 3 at Wisconsin, Evans knew that was not an option by league rule for a receiver. But being Lee Evans III and having worn 3 in some form on his jersey his whole football career he wanted 83. "Basically we don't use those numbers again until we check with Mr. Wilson," Hojnowski said. "After getting the okay there I also did have to place a call to San Diego to Andre and tell him myself, 'Look as a courtesy I'm letting you know that we're issuing your number.' So he asked me who and I told him it was Lee Evans and he said, 'Okay, he'll do the number proud.'" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
