    If they are minority hires from the Bills front office.

     

    It's the same compensation for Head Coach. If both a Head Coach and GM are hired it's 3 3rd round picks.

     

    In theory if Houston hires Boyd and Boyd takes Frazier for HC, the Texans revamp their front office and on-field coaching with a transfusion of Bills culture, at the cost of making the NFL pay the Bills 3 3rd rounders in the next 2 drafts.

     

    Why wouldn't they?

    With all due respect this 3rd round compensation has got to be one of the stupidest rules ever.  If the guy is the best person for the job hire him.  If he is not ready and you hire a guy because he is a minority what will that do for him.

    The Sabres are the drought Bills of the NHL. If they don't make the playoffs next season they will own the longest postseason drought of all time

    Is that right?  Seems like they were in the playoffs 10 years ago..... maybe just wishful thinking

    I have browsed around there the last few weeks.  I find it interesting, because I recall leading up to the opener last season, how 100% certain nearly everyone there was that Darnold was way ahead of Allen and was sure to be onto bigger and better things.  I was confused as to how they could be sure, at that point it looked maybe 50/50.

     

    I like the banter about how amazing Allen is, it inflates my fan-ego.  I have to say a lot of them have a generally good and realistic view.  I do feel a bit bad for them.  Although I typically hate NYC teams, Jets fans have had it pretty rough for a long time.

     

    Many though think.... that a 1st pick QB is a magic pill that fixes everything, along with cap space to spend on shiny toys.  That is not true.  The QB is important (but this day and age seems to be fairly common).  The most important thing is the football CEO who is generally the coach, who works with a savvy GM.  Need to get decent starters in the draft, and need to find decent but not all that splashy FA signings.  Maybe can swing for the fences if an opportunity arises like the Bills did with Diggs and Cardinals with Hopkins.  The environment for the QB is just as important as the QB, and a crummy environment will ruin any QB.   The turnaround only needs to take a couple years if done correctly.

     

    Especially if so called qb pick would rather stay at school than play for your team lol
