RobRyanFan Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Anyone know anything new about his injury? It would totally be that sort of luck that the Bills have that he is out for an extended period of time after cutting Karlos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 (edited) There was a sighting of him at the Mighty Taco, get there ASAP! Quaffing down a few MAX Buffitos, no doubt. Too bad Dizzy is dizzy. Might be time to kick the tires on some old retread, because our depth at RB is looking thin again.

Kelly the Dog Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 If he gets hurt and is out for an extended period of time (it would have to be a couple months) then cutting Karlos was a most Billsy thing to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 RBs aren't disposable but it's the most dime a dozen position you can find in the NFL. Guys like Shady are special with their explosiveness...

Because if any of those four guys get hurt for an extended period of time in the next six weeks, which is a very reasonable possibility, when Karlos came off suspension they could use if not need him.

Huge assumption that he has the maturity and discipline to be in shape and not use again while away from the team in the suspension period. You expect the Bills to place that trust in him given his debacle of an offseason? No way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't need a roster spot for him for four weeks. If one of the guys gets hurt and he gets his **** together he's the best alternative in the league. If he doesn't you are where you are now by cutting him. If none of them get hurt and are playing well you cut him then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaMilBill Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 (edited) I'm kinda bummed about this. I think gillislee might be the best RB at running the ball on our roster. He's fast, gets downhill and doesn't go down on arm tackles. Hope he is back soon. When he runs, he reminds me of faster Fred Jackson. Runs upright but can wiggle through tight spots Edited August 21, 2016 by VaMilBill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he's great in the passing game too, but that isn't what makes him special. He's on another than gillislee at running the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#34fan Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 You are really embarrising yourself Thanks gramps, but I'm not the one who told the fanbase "get ready, 'cuz we're goin" (to the playoffs) only to have the team flame out at 8 wins... I'm not the one who proclaimed "we won the off-season", only to have the roster collapse in a firestorm of injuries, and suspensions.... I'm not the one who proclaimed "we're NOT giving up on Karlos" only to have the kid cut just days later... I'm not the one who gave Rob Ryan a job after he 'coordinated' one of the worst defenses in NFL history.... Embarassing, you say? -This whole situation is embarassing... You don't feel it because your'e one of the unfortunate sheep being taken for a ride by Rex, Rob, and Doug... Bottom line: It's a sad day in my life when I care what a guy like you thinks.

Bubba Gump Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I was at the game and awhile after Gillislee went to the locker room they put an injury update on the jumbotron. It said "Gillislee knee possible to return" to which I immediately thought, even if it's nothing major, why take the chance on letting him come back out.

If he doesn't you are where you are now by cutting him. If none of them get hurt and are playing well you cut him then. The timing is odd. It seemed little to no downside to sit on him until October --- unless he's given new reasons (like the assertion his weights going back up) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everyone needs to take a deep breath, we are very deep at RB. With KW's weight, pot and concussion issues, it is probably for the best, but the timing is a little off. Oh, and stop watching Rex's pressers. They are for the media anyway, not Bills fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 (edited) LOL. Don't let logic get in the way of a good anti-Bills, we always make bad personnel decisions, rant.The point he was making is if we are down to 3 of those top 4 guys, and lose anothe in the first month - karlos would cost nothing to hold as a just in case, and if the light comes on he would be better than Boom. If the lights out, you cut him at the close of the suspension to avoid the roster spot needed for his return Which is incredibly reasonable, unless there's more behind the scenes (very possible) Edited August 21, 2016 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
