[GM Doug Whaley has been fired]

You are right, my mistake. I do think he was fired at the same time as Ryan, what other explanation is there for the last four months?

But why not hire a replacement? Other teams that fired their GM, hired new ones in Jnauary. This just continues to scream the Pegulas are clueless. Good luck hiring a GM, with a coach that has been given total control for 3 months already in place.

[Hogan and Gilly Prove Bills Scouting Superiority]

I'm neither bashing or rabidly supporting our GM, however I must point out that gaining 2-3 contributors in a draft, every year, is the minimum of what a team should get, its nothing to celebrate, and it does not put DW in the upper echelon of any GM rankings

 

Except we didn't get even that last year, so DW drafting failed us in 2016, and it reflected in yet another unsuccessful campaign, true by 2017, 2018 and or 2019, we might look back at last years draft, and longterm the anyalsis might be rosier, just short term it was an abject failure

 

As for DW having a year to prove his worth, talk to me when our team wins 10 games, until then his record is nothing but potential, the kind of potential a CJ Spiller once had, you know one great leap in 2014 with a 9-7 record, but since then, its a nothing burger, could be out of football soon, all the off season moves and so called scouting brilliance amounted to less success not more, lots of hype, no end delivery, no real dividends, not much return on capitol yet...

 

Just saying

..and we have a winner. For a franchise that hasn't won, Whaley takes too many chances with his draft picks. To summarize last years:

 

Shaq- Many teams were scared away by his bad shoulder, the Bills "knew it wasn't an issue" until he needed surgery

Ragland - bad luck on his leg, but teams were scared away by an enlarged aorta

washington - suspended for his bowl game for solicitation.

Jones - Defintion of project

Williams - too early to tell

Listenbee - Out for season, but drafted anyway.

Seymour - Contributed.

 

How do you defend a GM that needed talent, to chances on 5 of their 7 picks?
