All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
No it means that he may not have recovered enough after injuries to get a position on final roster. Fullback is one of those discounted positions in NFL and teams are phasing it out.

There's the kind of post I was waiting for. Nice job.

I see no reason for people to bash players for being cut. Crosby was a standup guy and was very accessible to fans from what I heard. He did not want to leave Buffalo but signed with teams because Bills did show interest in him. I understand bashing players who do not want to be here and whine or are paid big bucks to be stars and then do not perform but not players like Crosby.
One player that I thought would make it in the NFL was cut by the Titans, Vontez Duff. I knew a lot of people felt he was overrated but I thought he had a chance.
I agree, Crosby was a good egg and I think a pretty fair FB.
I noticed on several occasions (not sure what this says) two seasons ago that Gilbride (offensive genious that he is) had an entire sheet of plays drawn up just for Crosby.....and then, predictably, never used any of them....
Someone in the Bills organization had a hard on for him at one time....wonder who it was?
Men are clinging to football on a level we aren't even aware of. For centuries, we ruled everything, and now, in the last ten minutes, there are all these incursions by women. It's our Alamo. ~Tony Kornheiser
=========================
I have seen women walk right past a TV set with a football game on and - this always amazes me - not stop to watch, even if the TV is showing replays of what we call a "good hit," which is a tackle that causes at least one major internal organ to actually fly out of a player's body. ~Dave Barry

I saw Crosby throwing an option pass in training camp. Pretty good ball for a FB/RB. Too bad he did not get to develop more with Bills but I still hope he does well elsewhere except when he plays us. Here's hoping he gets another job, hopefully in NFC.

And a really good special teamer, too. G.Host may be right in that Crosby has never fully recovered from his injury. As I remember, he was close to beating out Gash before he got hurt.
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?
I agree with the not recovering from the injuries part. I though he would have a solid future here with the Bills, but obviously that was not the case.
There's truth to the saying Buffalo is a drinking town with a football problem, where a passionate fan base believes it has more answers than Ken Jennings on "Jeopardy."
