    I love this board! I think one year of his leadership and part time play wouldn't hurt.
    Part-time play might help, but leadership? Today's NFL players are in it for the jack.

    Re: Fred Jackson plays his last season in Buffalo?

    LOL, the Bills led the entire league in rushing this year.

    Buffalo not only gained the most rushing yards, but they also were first in yards-per-attempt in 2015...all without Jackson.

    So what should we do, go after the oldest running back in the NFL? Freddie STILL is that. Some of you people slay me with the over-the-top Freddie love. Everyone's already mad at Rex for fixing what ain't broken, yet some are encouraging that here.

    Also, the Bills went nowhere for nine years with the ultra-magical Freddie leadership quality. Leave it alone for crying out loud. It's over, and this is a stupid idea.

    I like Mike Gillislee. He's 25 years young, 5'11 219 lbs and played great last year for the Bills.

    http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/...mike-gillislee

    Not to discount Gillislee, but running backs are a dime a dozen in the NFL.

    I hope Fred retires and starts to focus on life after football.

    Sign freddie for a day, let him retire a Bill, and get him on the wall of fame someday. Any guy who played that many years on a crap team and still was able to be positive and productive and CLUTCH (lost track of how many 3rd downs he converted) needs to be on that wall. Not to mention 100% class.

    It's hilarious. These guys are ****ing nuts. You want him for leadership? Make him an assistant coach. He's too old and slow to be on an NFL team.

    Well said.

    Unfortunately, in todays society and especially today's NFL, fans want to hang onto their heroes. Even when it's better if they just hang up their cleats.

    Re: Fred Jackson plays his last season in Buffalo?

    If you want to argue that Fred can't help in a part time role I'm ok with that. Like I said I was the first one here who said we should move on from him. That was only 10 months ago when you guys all cried like whinny little babies. So you all owe me an apology based on the responses in this thread which completely contradict what you guys were saying 10 months ago.

    On the leadership point. Please tell me who the leaders are? Dareus, McCoy, Tyrod. You guys are missing that we don't have a leader in the locker room.

    Re: Fred Jackson plays his last season in Buffalo?

    I've been pretty consistent with my comments regarding Freddie, maybe it's you that owes me an apology considering one of the factors used as justification for not cutting him to begin with was locker room leadership, which you now admit is missed.

    You want an apology? OK, I'm sorry you're being an idiot.

    Sign him to one of those insignificant deals and let him retire a Buffalo Bill. Then make him an assistant rb's coach or something like that. This locker room needs a Fred Jackson in there.

    Why? You're not loving the Rexy inspired penalties ?

    FJ might just teach Rexy how to be a prodessional instead of a clown. Do we want that?

    Actually some of us agreed with you that it was time for Jackson to go.
