Buckhalter for Back-Up

[Romes]

Pasquarelli mentioned Buckhalter as a back up option if the bills traded Henry in one of his past tip sheets.

If the Bills trade former starter Travis Henry, as anticipated, they will need a backup tailback to play behind McGahee. One possibility is Correll Buckhalter of Philadelphia, who has suffered season-ending knee injuries in two of his four league seasons. When healthy, the star-crossed Buckhalter is a very solid back.

We seem to have luck with guys that have had knee problems. He is a solid hard nosed runner. He would be a great #2 option behind McGahee.

He is the best solution to our back-up RB problem assuming Henry is traded.

I wouldn't mind that!

[Stewie]

That would give us two good knees out of two backs! I'll take it!

I swear I've read this post at least twice yesterday.

[TheBrownBear]

Sounds good to me.

You are right. I did a search it was posted on 2/18. My bad.

[Mr. Miyagi]

No problem. I thought it was just me.

Is Buckhalter a FA or is he still attached to Philly?

[Romes]

he is an unrestricted free-agent

[Jan Reimers]

If we could keep him healthy, he'd be a great backup. The good news is that because of those injuries, he has very low mileage.

Lets get this deal Done

I just hope he's not so good when healthy that we create another RB controversy.

[Mr. Miyagi]

Nah. Like I said before, it smells like another Olandis Gary to me.

I'm not very familiar with CB, since he's mostly been a commitee style back in his days in Philly w/Duce and Westbrook. But from what I do know, he seems to be a good back-up option.

So who will be the odd man out at RB if the Bills do sign a back-up? Joe Burns, I suppose?

[Mr. Miyagi]

Burns had a couple games as starter to strut his stuff, and he sucked. Cut him.
