He would be a great leader for our two young backs to learn from in the room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nester Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I like him a lot, but that roster spot value… would rather give a young guy a chance to prove himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoTom Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I see a pretty steep drop-off over the past few years. Only 25 touches last season. I'm not sure there's enough in the tank to get him to the next gas station. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d go there before Fred. Seriously, on Shady, it’s over. It’s been over for awhile. We wore him out in 2017, and now it’s time for him to retire. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Nice to hear but at this point Breida is more valuable as he has a much better chance of actually contributing on the field. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 He has gotten a Super Bowl ring in his last two stops, could he make it 3 in a row, there should be room on the practice squad for him. Or hire him to be a Running Backs coach with a possibility of signing him as a Running Back if Singletary, Moss and Breida all go down. Plus I've heard of him, what could be better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornAgainBillsFan Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 We love you, Shady! You'll be a legend in Buffalo for life. But the only way you're getting on that Bills sideline is by standing next to Jim Kelly in civvies, cheering our current boys on. The time has come. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you - time to open the strawberry jam, because he's toast. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Tom, maybe if you change you’re profile to a young hottie, and a good resume, can get into his party. What a joke that one was when it blew up in his face. I’m happy he helped our team and in 2017, he was part of the end of the drought. Josh needed someone to help him.

DrDawkinstein Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 The only value of bringing him in is as a good luck charm since he has 2 rings in the last 2 years. He is great in the locker room. Wouldnt expect a single yard of production from him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StHustle Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 He averaged 4.6 ypc in his KC season before going to Tampa and only getting 10 carries all year. It's not like it's for certain he couldn't contribute a bit on the field as well bring that superbowl winning swag into the locker room. I would approve this move. With that said. I don't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, we really need to focus on developing players in order to sustain success. And Shady's problem his last season here was dancing around looking for a hole that wasn't there instead of plunging in and getting what he could.

Because he’s a 12 year vet going into a 13th yr. making more than $1.1 mil. If we sign him prior to opening day and has done nothing for two years in Tampa and KC. That’s a colossal waste of $ when we have Breida who could actually do something for us. Every old washed up guy is not worth even bothering just like Walker, the TE. They are done. Desperate losing teams make these decisions, not one that has one of the best rosters in the NFL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herc11 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 (edited) Honestly, I'd rather have shady starting over Singletary. Shady averaged 4.6 yards per carry two seasons ago and just wasn't used last year. I think he could, at the very least, match Singletary's ceiling is at this point. He could also bring intel on the both the Bucs and the Chiefs offenses. I know its not gonna happen though. Edited July 16, 2021 by Herc11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
