Just when I started to like McBeane atleast for their effort and willingness to try and make this team better. Yeah. Signing a top 5 all time running back still producing at a high level to a 1 year deal for peanuts. How dare they! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Very disappointing. Gore? Sure, as well as so many need positions being snatched up around the League. Its Buddy Nix part 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ngbills Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Gore will be a huge recruiter as well for the Bills. He was already overheard recruiting some of his old teammates - Shockey, A Johnson, Portis, McGahee, Ed Reed, D Hester just to name a few. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness, Gore has still been productive, even at his relatively advanced age, and the cost is minimal. 722 yards last year with 4.6 ypc. Clearly he's no longer a heavy duty back, yet he's been amazing to this point. I would still be looking for another back unless maybe Ford can prove himself in camp and preseason. I'm not a Murphy fan though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Long Beach Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 One more competent player to have going into training camp competition. I'm totally fine with it. I was underwhelmed by our young running backs last year, and I suspect we'll throw a low draft pick this year. But we don't NEED to this year. This is the Bean way, have a team before the draft. Not rely on the draft to get a team. Are we a little better? I think so. Massively better? probably not. But why all the hyperventilating? We have to sign 40 people to bring us to 90 for training camp. We have to sign a LOT of people and Gore played well last year. As someone has already said, this was agreed to a while ago. This isn't taking up any of our time or money to chase other players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatdrought Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 I think something to realize with the Gore Signing is this: Supposedly, this past weekend we got spurned by a "star" (read: egotistical baby with an overdone sense of self) who said he didn't want to play here (this has been debated, but the rumor is there non-the-less and with it comes the bad optic) Today we signed one of the OG stars left in the NFL. One of the truest professionals, a guy who is widely respected in the league and who, even at his age, commands and deserves respect. I think it makes sense really. Not sure if they were thinking that way, but I like it. Plus, someone posted where we can cut Ivory and essentially we get Gore for 400k. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 The news that the Bills are getting Frank is good. But lost in that singular transaction is the news that Shady McCoy has been working out with Frank.

Harrison, proprietor) I wanna give you props because way back when people here were metaphorically high-fiving each other over Donohoe's brilliance for drafting McGahee, you repeatedly reminded everyone that McGahee only started for the U because the better RB (Gore) was injured. Gore is currently 521 yards behind Barry Sanders for #3 all time, and I'm betting he gets past him if he stays healthy. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmsmystic Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Frank Gore is an NFL Icon, respected by players and coaches. He's the kind of guy you'd want in the locker room.

BillsFan4 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 http://www.nfl.com/videos/san-francisco-49ers/0ap3000000503709/Frank-Gore-s-impeccable-pass-protection he definitely adds an aspect the team was somewhat missing. He’s a better pass blocking RB than anyone on the roster. And he’s been around + seen it all. I don’t see where it will hurt Allen to have Gore in the huddle (assuming he makes the team). Plus he’s a model veteran (and eventual hall of famer). The guy has a legendary work ethic and is very willing to mentor young players. IMO the bills should really draft/sign a young RB this year and take advantage of having 2 future Hall-of-famers in the RB room to mentor them. It’s possible neither are here after this year. May as well take advantage of what they have to offer a young player while you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the fact that more people are also starting to be willing to take an objective look at McBeane instead of assuming everything is awesome. These dudes got a lotta' proving to do.
