CodeMonkey Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Buffalo media is the pits, WGR not covering this, and the Buffalo News a joke of a newspaper. Why would anyone bother to cover a pre-draft presser? Are they expected to lay out their draft strategy and display their board? Geez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Why would anyone bother to cover a pre-draft presser? Are they expected to lay out their draft strategy and display their board? Geez Seems like a town that is buzzing about firing the hockey team's GM and HC could use a little distraction from being called a tire fire of a sports city. You would think that a decent PR person would at least TRY to deflect the attention about that news by giving the fans ANYTHING else to talk about.

You would think that a decent PR person would at least TRY to deflect the attention about that news by giving the fans ANYTHING else to talk about. But, it's just a bunch of BS anyways. These pre-draft pressers have zero info and just serve as time-wasters. Especially if DW doesn't talk and blow it like his end-of-season presser Edited April 20, 2017 by MiltonWaddams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Yes, but it's BS that I'd like to hear because I like football and eat up the garbage crumbs they throw to us. The draft is a week away, I want more news. Any news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Barbarian Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Promo and Teef at their draft day party More dysfunction at 1 bills drive. No I think everyone just wants to make sure it is over in time to be back on their couches by 4:20 what is 4:20 I guess Twitter is occasionally useful for some things. Joe BuscagliaVerified account @JoeBuscaglia 8m8 minutes agoMore #Bills HC Sean McDermott won't commit to which person in the draft room makes the final call on who to pick. "Group decision." Joe BuscagliaVerified account @JoeBuscaglia 2m2 minutes agoMore #Bills HC McDermott: It's a QB-driven league. Important position. We feel really good about the QBs on our roster. We scout all positions. Smokescreen beginning. indeed because all that is BS. McD is really making the picks because bottom line is if he really wants someone he gets the pick. However for all picks that are busts those are Whaley's And Sully embarrasses himself again by asking Tyrod Taylor about the Sabres firings @buffalobills "(Doug Whaley) and I are going to make the call on draft picks together. This is absolutely a team effort. He's still in control of the 53." Sure thing Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 We can all just assume McD runs the show right? I'm sure Whaley will give his input but the vibe I'm getting leads me to believe coach is making the decisions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffismagic Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 How about what actually is spoken straight from the source? Nah! Forget that! I don't believe in ideas that don't explain events well. Last year's draft looked like Whaley was playing fetch for Rex, that he had given in to Rex's vision. I expect Whaley to do the same this year with McDermott. You and I can both be right.

I am beginning to wonder if he is more the errand boy for the coach and the coach is calling the personnel shots in both cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
