Did Reggie Bush even play in the NFL last season? I thought he was retired.

Did Reggie Bush even play in the NFL last season? I thought he was retired.

He actually had a pretty good year, I'm surprised you didn't notice him. He had 3.5 yards per carry and almost 5 yards per reception, which translated to 28 yards rushing and 19 yards receiving on the season. He was targeted nearly a dozen times through the air.

He played for the Niners last year, which is one of the few teams where you could say that this move would be an upgrade for him.

I don't see Bush or anyone else they could have brought in having that big of a role, so I don't think it matters that much. McCoy will still get the bulk of snaps, and I still think Jonathan Williams and Gilislee get more carries than Bush.

If true, I (still) don't get it.

Where does Reggie Bush fit and how many running backs can you carry? Not to mention if they signed him before the season starts his salary for the year is fully guaranteed.

Am I missing something? Do they plan on cutting Karlos or Jonathan Williams?

I don't expect his suspension to be more than 1 game and it may not even happen this year. It usually takes a while to get through the legal and review processes.

We'll have to see how Bush looks in TC and preseason, but I don't see his role being that significant unless the other guys start getting hurt or he looks really good.

Bush gives us a guy who can catch out of the backfield and serve as our primary punt returner. So while not a great feature back option he's a good depth signing.

Am I missing something? Do they plan on cutting Karlos or Jonathan Williams?

For starters, Karlos is going to miss the first 4 games, so another back is needed. That represents 25% of the season right there. If Karlos does not appear to be motivated to return to last season's form, he could be gone after that.

At the rate of attrition we had last year, it is possible that there could be injuries that prolong his stay.

Or, they could easily cut Gillislee - after all, they found him on the Dolphins practice squad. Or, if they feel that Bush really does not have much to offer then they could part ways with him instead.

So what? Why should that mean anything?

Lots of good-to-great players were on teams' practice squads early on. The Bills had Jason Peters on their practice squad. Guys like James Harrison, Arian Foster, Kurt Warner, Rod Smith, Cameron Wake, etc.

Gillislee was a fifth round pick, just like Jonathan Williams and Karlos Williams. Just like Kyle Williams. That doesn't matter either.

Point taken.

My take was that we picked this guy up late season when no other team thought enough of him to give him an active roster spot. The Dolphins let him go from their practice squad (I mistakenly thought he was on it when we signed him). Then (according to Wikipedia) the Cards put him on their practice squad and he lasted 4 weeks before being released. Again, that might not mean anything, but the Cards are a fairly successful team with some astute coaches who seem to have an eye for talent. It is hard to dismiss their evaluation out of hand.

He could turn out to be a ball of fire - a talent that was completely mis-read by teams for the past 3 years that had a good long look at him. Or, he also could be a scrub who played well on fresh legs when 2 of the defenses that he faced were poor to begin with (Washington and Philadelphia) and had gone through a long season and were worn down. If Bush is 80% of the player he once was, then he is probably better than Gillislee. I think that, given how little the team has invested in the guy, he is expendable.

Shady McCoy, Mike Gillislee, James Wilder, Johnathan Williams, and Karlos Williams (despite suspension). Additionally, he's coming off of an acl tear that he suffered less than a year ago. He's facing an uphill battle. That's what I'm talking about. It's hard to expect an impact out of a 10th season back, let alone one that is coming off of an acl tear.

Nobody is expecting Reggie to be an impact player. He's backup insurance while 2 of our RBs are (possibly) gone early in the season. His place on the roster will have to be earned like any other and they'll take it from there. If he proves useful, possibly as a 3rd down back (he does have decent hands), he'll remain. If not, with (hopefully) Karlos getting back in shape, he'll get bumped out.

Does Karlos not take up a roster spot since he is suspended for the first four games? If so, I can understand this move. But even then, if you cut him after the fourth game, you've paid him for a full season anyway.

The Bills having some veteran depth at key positions, vet QB will be needed soon. Cardale is raw as heck, EJ loses games in minutes.

I was told that they had points they agreed to on the contract and Bush was signing the deal, I have no idea why it hasn't been announced unless he had to go for a physical. I knew that was coming up but there's HIPAA regulations, so we should see how it all works out soon.

This source is not my relative like usual, so I'm getting this info from a not as well known. I'd call them mediocre versus poor.

I was also told something else today that I cannot mention at all, it's not good and I hope it doesn't come about. We have more trouble coming if it turns that way, OP will be in his F-in glory.

Uh oh. If Mitch's source is legit, which it looks like it is, there might be some bad news.

I find this pretty exciting news. Yes, all the issues bring up with Bush are true. However, our guys saw places he could add value and went out and talked him into signing here and going through our process. It indicates we are doing proper due diligence to make the team better. The injury history and his ability to rehab is certainly a question but his body has not had the same punishment of a 10 year back with his skills and abilities either.

I suppose my idea of due diligence would have been finding a younger more versatile back and not skimming the surface for shiny retread, but hey. I think people think they're getting young Reggie Bush when they aren't.

I don't think there's anyone here thinking we are getting a young Reggie Bush. Natty Hackett is not the OC, and we won't be sending Reggie between the tackles on 1st and 10.

I think everyone is pretty much meh, but he could be an asset if used creatively.

I'm not overly excited, but it is what is is and I'm fine with it.

Whatever.

I think more of the idea is to use him mainly on Special Teams on a regular basis, particularly as a punt returner. That's one thing that isn't settled on this team yet. We already have a crowded backfield at RB, but they may just use him in certain packages as a pass threat out of the backfield, and not really have him actually run the ball so often.

The Bills may want him as a veteran presence in camp so McCoy doesn't meaninglessly overdo it in practice this year...they've said that they want to be more careful about that this year across the board. Remember when like all of our running backs were out last year in training camp? Like what, five of them?

I gotta say that this move doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me even considering what he may be used for. Maybe it'll work better than we think, but at least the risk is very low as far as I understand. The potential payoff may be worth it, as long as we look at it for what it is. He hasn't even made the team yet, really, so I'll go along with it. Another thing to be interested in seeing how that plays out, to me. The man has skills when healthy for sure, even now IMO. Let it play out, I says.

I think they did it just so you could finally get the **** over the fact that Fred Jackson is not on the team anymore.

Do you think his number should be retired? jeez.

Bush probably asked for the number when he saw which ones were available. There was 22 and 29...that's it for the 20s.

So what?

Expectations are not that high, Vegas has over under at 8 games but our odds of winning the conference are the 13th longest. So that extrapolates to 6 win (4 wins / 8 wins), just to be clear. This didn't even factor in all our injures and suspensions when I last checked on it a few weeks ago, so since then it hasn't gotten any better for us.

I'd take the under 8 wins all day and Sunday if I were you guys, it'll be a miracle if it's any better.

I've lived in Vegas, and it's obvious you don't know anything about gambling...at least going off what you say.

Where does this strange brand of reasoning come from, exactly? The odds of the Bills winning the conference are so low because we have the Patriots in our division. I don't think too many people are going to bet against the Patriots to win the division anyway, much less the conference. Even with Brady's suspension. Win the conference for the first seed? Please. A conference bet is an entirely different thing as opposed to overall record.

None of this equates with the Bills' winning six games as a stretch. I have news for you: Vegas is not on the up-and-up. Their goal is to take your money, not to set fair spreads or predictions. Most gamblers hate the Bills now, especially after this offseason.

So bet on the Bills under 8 then. Go ahead. What's stopping you? That goes for anybody else who is so sure the Bills won't get to .500. Easy money, right? Bet the freakin' farm on it then if it's already a foregone conclusion. I dare ya.

Eh?

I'm not saying that the Bills will have a winning season...just ask LardFat on that one. But if you aren't willing to bet on outcomes, then your opinion means very little. Lacks conviction.

There's a way of getting close to how it's going to turn out or pretty close, unless something extraordinary happens. Tyrod becoming a star would be one event to get us out of this pattern, you never know but don't bet on it.
