26CornerBlitz Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 I would guess all season--NFL LBs regular wear numbers in the 40's now. Markus Golden and Myles Jack come to mind, and I think Hassan Reddick took 43 for Arizona this year. I thought Tanner Vallejo was 51? Deion Jones wears #45 in ATL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juice_32 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 As long as he's not 43 and he's not the mike. The thought of Brady shouting it at the line gives me nightmares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Nobody ever signs with the Bills. He's in 51 now Phew, I'm glad I read this before I ordered the replacement name plate for my old Poz jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloHokie13 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 When the roster's at 90 there are usually some duplicates. It'll be settled by the time jerseys are available in the store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 @SalSports Source tells me Gerald Hodges' deal with Bills is for the vet minimum for one year. That's a bargain for the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I am hoping that this is a guy we get extended Let's actually see him play before we Jauron him. Still, it seems like a great pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffAlone Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 @SalSports Source tells me Gerald Hodges' deal with Bills is for the vet minimum for one year. That's a bargain for the team. What a bargain. Hopefully it can turn into another contract offer after he plays well this year. On a side note, was there no better financial options for him out there? Im curious as to why he signed fairly quickly in FA on a one year deal for vet min..Does anyone have any insight as to why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a chance that he's a bit of a problem child. Got benched by the ****ty 49ers for violation of team rules. Honestly, with his play last year, I thought he'd sign long-term somewhere.

He signed almost three months after the start of free agency. Wouldn't say that's fairly quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevewin Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Not sure if this was common knowledge (I hadn't heard it before - tried slogging back through this thread but might have missed it) A league source has informed me that linebacker Gerald Hodges’ deal with the Bills is for the veteran minimum salary for one year. https://t.co/moHzBiaM6Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffAlone Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 (edited) He signed almost three months after the start of free agency. Wouldn't say that's fairly quick. My point was,there are STILL FA's out there, unsigned. I just wondered why the process went so quickly...regardless of what dates we are talking. He came for a visit, left, and signed rather quickly. So I wondered if there might not have been much interest in him elsewhere There's a chance that he's a bit of a problem child. Got benched by the ****ty 49ers for violation of team rules. Honestly, with his play last year, I thought he'd sign long-term somewhere. Thanks! I thought the same thing. A one year deal at vet min was a good get. Hopefully he plays his way into another contract Edited June 15, 2017 by BuffAlone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact I'd have a problem not punching his smug face repeatedly whilst laughing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Man that's a surprise. Bills are really going cheap with their offers, hope they don't do the same with Sammy when the time comes. Maybe they are going cheap with some of the offers so they can give competative offers to core guys like Sammy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsfanAZ Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I hope that's the case... Not picking up his team option doesn't give me much hope it is the case. Im not totally convinced they'll pay him even if he does have a great year and play all 16 games. Not picking up Watkins option has more to do with the injury guarantee than anything else. Maybe the Bills saw that Hodges wasnt getting the love that he thought he would from other teams. Or maybe he thought he had the best chance to get on the field with the Bills to earn his next contract. I get so tired of "the Bills are cheap". Beane said they wont be making big splashes in free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
