    Why did we ditch Frank Summers and sign Felton?

    Are they pretty much the same guy?

    I think Felton is a far more accomplished lead blocker.
    Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

      Felton is considered one of the best blocking FB in the NFL.

      Summers isn't.

      That's all I can come up with lol

        Shady didn't like Summers.

        Felton coming in was Shady approved.

        one of the top blocking backs, where Summers was not.

          Yeah pretty simple, Felton is more established as a lead blocker. I know for one I am excited about bringing in the I formation and powering ahead instead of those stupid shotgun handoffs that never seemed to work under Marrone/Hackett

            Felton, is, hands down, one of the best blocking FB's in the league. Has been for years. Summers is average, at best. Nuff said. Felton is a very good addition IMO.

              I wish we still had the groan button.
              Shady approved the move !?!?! Which Shady? The poster or the RB?
              I dont care about the former and I doubt the latter was really asked, I mean asked in the sense of signing off.

                Because Summers kind of sucks.
                I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
                "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
                You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
                It was all
                true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
                He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
                mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

                    Shady (the poster) likes to talk like Bob Dole. http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-li...opening/n10910

                      To be honest, Felton is simply better at his job than Summers. There's no reason to disrespect Summers in here. He was a decent player who made positive plays the few times he would get the ball.

                        Summers got cut before the season ended. We ditched him before Felton was even available.

                          The biggest loser in this is Adrian Peterson.

                            If you ask me, Felton might be the best sign by the Bills. We will see in the fall.

                            He can do just about everything well as a FB. It is him, not the guy in NYJ, that is a threat to unseat Jackson.

                              One is a good blocker and one is not. Pretty simple reasoning.
