Bills release Fred Jackson

@viccarucci: The #Bills have released RB Fred Jackson as part of their roster cut to 75, according to an #NFL source.

More BB kryptonite gone. Wonder if we'd be interested.

wow, i didn't see that coming. I think he would be a perfect 3rd down back.

He's a million years old. No thanks, but he was a real good player in his prime.

Cant hurt to bring him in for a checkup..

I'd kick the tires.

If BB thinks it's worth a shot and he can help, go for it.

I think the ship has sailed on that one.

We're all worked up over Goodell vs Brady. We'd be willing to kick practically anything. .

As for Fred Jackson, he hasn't really burned BB too much so I imagine there is only a little bit of interest.

This time of year is like an NFL yard sale.

Always thought he would end up here eventually but, we're loaded at running back right now. Have too many as it is.

I would rather have him than Cadet though.

Why? Cadet hasn't shown what he can do yet........probably a cut because of Pats RB depth. Is he PS eligible?

Love that 500yds Receiving from the Backfield last year Jackson have BB signing written all over him. Everytime I remember seeing Jackson is him catching passes against our LB's...sign the Beast!

He's always been a guy I've wanted to see on the Patriots. I'd bring him in for a workout at least.

Jackson's stats last year:

141 Rushes for 525 Yards
66 Receptions for 501 Yards

I'd take a look. He's never been to the playoffs, he'll be hungry.

I bet BB is on the phone with him.

i say there is close to 100% chance he signs with us

No. Shadow roster.

That is more yards Rushing and Receiving than the younger Shane Vereen last year!

Is this early release a "courtesy vet" move like BB does for "esteemed vets" that won't make his roster.
PS...Fred Jackson ====>Clock Killin 2.0 ??
