McBeane Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 http://www.xx1090sandiego.com/common/globa...io/40/18380.mp3 Haven't listened to it yet. About 12 minutes. Enjoy. Just listened to it, he mentioned that we never looked to move out of 9 and that we were never going to draft Tebow (as we already knew). Basically said most of the same stuff that he said in the post-draft presser with him and Gailey. It is interesting though, and who doesn't love listening to Buddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 Apparently Buddy was a fairly regular guest on this show when he was in SD. Buddy compliments the Buffalo weather. Talks about drafting "blue-collar guys." Says you need mentally tough players to play in the cold weather. Says he didn't talk with A.J. Smith at all during the draft (rumors that SD wanted to trade up for Spiller). Talks about his reluctance to trade up or down in the draft. Talks about Tim Tebow. Talks about the Bills QBs...with an interesting mention... Buddy seemed unclear on how Langston Walker left the Bills last year... Talks about his "retirement" and how he never anticipated being a GM and how long it took for him to make the decision to accept the GM job. Buddy did buy a house here in Buffalo... Talks about Terrell Owens who he recruited and coached in college...whether there's any chance that T.O. will return You guys should listen to this...can listen to it while reading other posts... The show hosts make some interesting comments after the interview is over about Nix and A.J. Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Good interview. Buddy is diplomatic but he does seem to let on more inside stuff than say a Marv Levy or John Butler would. A little bit of honesty is refreshing when all you usually get is blah-blah. The way he jumped in with Brian Brohm's name when they were talking QBs tells me he is getting more consideration as a starter than most folks realize. He also made a good point about how f**ked up the Bills offense as just two weeks before the season and how it's hard to judge the QBs because of it. I also think, in a back-handed way, he was saying that guys like T.O. don't play hard enough. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others have pointed out that Buddy is like Polian in that neither seems to like to trade around in the draft too much (too early to say with Nix, but he said as much in this interview). And they're also similar in that Polian is very open and honest for an NFL GM. Polian doesn't smokescreen and he gives honest answers to questions. Buddy seems like that too. Also, the San Diego radio hosts seemed to imply that A.J. Smith got too much of the credit for their drafts...and that maybe Buddy was a bit short-changed.

symbiant Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I like how the host basically implied that Buddy had an axe to grind (something to prove) and was going to "get medieval". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 It was a good interview, and Buddy obviously has a rapport with these guys. I could listen to Buddy all day long. Now, if only the Bills would bring back Dwight Adams . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PTR Buddy Nix didn't want Brohm left out of the equation or the discussion (why would he) and its his job to encourage his players to compete. The interview to me points towards Trent Edwards in my opinion. Note: The way I see it Brohm may see action this coming up season because its very possible he will slip to 2nd on the depth chart and would replace TE if he continues to struggle or sustain injury.

sullim4 Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 The most interesting thing in this interview was his dig at the previous administration - how can you cut your LT, offensive coordinator, and put AVP in charge a week before the season starts?

The show hosts make some interesting comments after the interview is over about Nix and A.J. Smith. Very interesting interview. I really think Buffalo has struck gold here with Buddy. There are going to be the naysayers here on this board but after listening to the interview, Buddy is definitely a guy that is going to tell you the way it is, like it or not. The interviewers did seem to think that Buddy has something to prove after possibly being the man behind the scenes with AJ Smith in San Diego. They seemed to imply that it might have been Buddy building that team but AJ was getting all the credit, to the point where AJ had a PR guy doing the praising for him. Buddy didn't have that. All in all, after listening, there is definitely hope after years of Donahoe, Williams, Mularkey (though I think his hands were tied), Levy, Brandon and Jauron. Buddy has a simple direction and is going to get there, his way. It's nice to know that there finally is a direction with this team instead of the endless wandering that has been going on for the last 10 or so years.

The interview to me points towards Trent Edwards in my opinion. I have that feeling as well -- provided he wins the QB competition in Chan's eyes over the Summer. If and when that happens, I fully expect that there will be some on this board who will spontaneously combust before our eyes just like the Spinal Tap drummers.

If and when that happens, I fully expect that there will be some on this board who will spontaneously combust before our eyes just like the Spinal Tap drummers. Gailey/Nix are a bit pressed because of TE's contract status to determine if he's our Guy. Given that, TE's intelligence, his lightning quick release, accuracy and high completion rate, it appears to me Trent Edwards would be our leading candidate. I like Brohm and Fitz for that matter, I could see Gailey designing some plays that would suit Ryan Fitzpatrick's running capabilities because the guys got some wheels and he's fearless. The jobs still TE's to lose though in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny I didn't hear Edwards name at all. I did hear Brohms and I did hear Gailey gushing over Brohm on Sirius. Funny how fans try to hear what they want to hear even though it wasn't there.

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 The most interesting thing in this interview was his dig at the previous administration - how can you cut your LT, offensive coordinator, and put AVP in charge a week before the season starts? I think this shows a good leadership trait. My take is it's less of a dig at the previous admin and more of a boost to the players. He is going on the record saying the O failures were not about the players, most of whom are still on the roster. This reinforces why he didn't chase the FA market for every WR, QB and LT out there and he lifts the blame from Fitzbbrohmwards to give them a clean slate.

The jobs still TE's to lose though in my opinion. He has lost it twice already how many more times does he have to lose it? Brohm is the guy the administration keeps mentioning. They also mention a strong arm and good decision making skills, neither of which Edwards has. I have to really ask, are you related. I am serious here because anyone with just a general interest of the Bills knows this kid doesn't have it. Did you not hear the boos when he hit the field last and the cheers when he got hurt and left the field? The majority of money paying fans dont' want to see him again and this front office does need to sell tickets. Brohm will be the starter, it is his job to lose and I just dont' see that happening.
