  1. Darnold is going to the Browns. It's a done deal. That's why they didn't draft anyone this year or last. Jets and 49ers are next. We might get the 4th best guy if we are lucky

     

     

     

     

     

    Well, the Browns took Kizer this year, so you got that going for ya.

  2. My question is: Do you think Whaley was informed prior to the draft that he would be released after the draft? Or do you think Whaley went in to draft thinking that a homerun draft could possibly save his job?

     

     

     

     

    Oh, i think Whaley knew that the executioner was a-knocking.

  3. All i keep thinking about is drafting EJ wayyyyyyyyyyyy too high and then being so stubborn to stand by his decision. I'm no scout, but even at FSU, the guy was a project. How anyone let Whaley even make that draft choice in the first is unforgivable.

     

    And then throwing 2 number one picks to get Sammy, who is barely and i mean barely, able to stay on the field each week, when it was a deep WR draft class..........that was the beginning of the end for me with Whaleys tenure.

     

    In the grand scheme of things, i'm sure that Whaley has done more good than harm to the franchise, but as a life long fan, some of his decisions were questionable and just down-right painful from a fans perspective.

  4. Pegula didn't explain the move very well at the press conference. I can't see this move being seen favourably in NFL circles. This is a brand problem of a different sort. Whaley had some credibility in NFL. He has relationships in the league. This is going to have an impact on attracting the best talent out there due to optics involved.

     

     

    So, it was the Whaley firing that turned this franchise into an unprecedented fiasco?

     

    I suppose a dysfunctional franchise with 17+ years of fail has nothing to do with attracting the markets best talent.

  5. Grade and discuss the overall Draft.

     

    Very happy with our picks this year and pumped to have a extra first rounder next year. I wasn't huge on the Peterman pick but loving it more and more. That pick might be the steal of the entire draft.

     

     

     

     

     

    The Bucs grabbing Howard at their draft position was the steal of the draft.

  6. If anyone has a problem with what is transpiring with the Bills FO lately, just think about it like this.........

     

    If you were a new owner of a sports franchise with 17 years of fail behind it, you'd probably step back a little and see how things unfold before you clean house, from the top on down.

     

    The Pegs are putting everyone on notice that no one is safe..........if you can't do your job, then you won't have a job.

     

    I love what i'm seeing these days.

     

    Break up the "old boys club" and start new.

  7. Whaley and the Ryan brother are probably all sitting around in a bar saying, "yep, i remember when i used to work for the Bills..........."

     

    I'd like to say that this firing affects me, but it truly does not.

    It's the same as any other job..........if you don't produce or succeed, then you're going home.

     

    No love lost here.

  8. I think the point is this.........if TT plays lights out this year and can prove that he is our future, then it's a major bonus for the team going forward, as the QB questions will be put to rest.

     

    However, if TT struggles during the season, then it's comforting for the FO office to know that they will have 2 first round picks for 2018 and can be a major player for a QB, if needed.

     

    You'd rather have options, than none.

    In years past, the Bills have handcuffed themselves in the drafts and through FA..........next year affords the organization some breathing room.
