Whaley missed on EJ
mortgaged the future by using 2 first round picks on Sammy. Could have had Mack at #5 or sat at #9 and taken Odell Beckham or DT Aaron Donald and kept the second first rounder.
overpaid on long term deals for underperforming Dareus, Clay, A. Williams, Hughes. re-did shady's deal.
NOT in good cap shape for 2017
Whaley hasn't done anything special at all.
it's the guy buying the groceries...that'd be Whaley.

cleaning house = hope
hope = ticket sales
highly likely both rex & whaley are fired AFTER the season.
Pegula tried to hire Polian to run football operations last year. only the hall of fame stopped that.
highly likely Pegula executes that plan with or without Polian.
likely scenario...
whaley wants Rex fired.....Russ leaks it....
terry Pegula puts a halt to it...because he intends to FIRE BOTH REX & WHALEY after the season is over.
enter Bill Polian.
the only reason Bill Polian didn't take the job last year is because it would have reset his 5 year eligibility to enter the hall of fame.
could still happen.
highly likely he has a legit source inside...
obviously we have a fluid and volatile situation at OBD
anything could happen.
the person most liklely that doesn't want Polian is Russ

for starters we don't have a true NT to play the middle of a 3-4 defense. Dareus & kyle are both "penetrating" DT in a 4-3 defense. in a 3-4 they are both DE. there isn't a NT on the roster.
Q: How much responsibility do you have on calling the plays on game day?
A: Thurman: "A lot."
Q: Who is the coach in the booth that Preston Brown said was getting the calls in late?
A: Thurman: "I have no idea what he’s talking about. See again, you guys assume I know what’s going on. I have no idea."
