thebandit27 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Wow...Beane is assembling a very interesting crop of personnel people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted May 17, 2017 Author Share Posted May 17, 2017 @BuffaloBillsPR Bills GM Brandon Beane was very pleased to land Boyd for his pro department. “He was my number one choice,” said Beane. “The first guy I targeted. I appreciate (Arizona GM) Steve Keim letting him come over here and interview. It was very kind of him because he was under contract. Malik is talented. He won an award in 2014, the Fritz Pollard Scout of the Year. They don’t just throw those out. He earned it. He’s going to be a great influence on our pro staff. He has a high ceiling.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Looks like another good hire. I do like the way Beane appears to be empowering the guys beneath him to be in charge of their areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie Muellers Ghost Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 (edited) 2014 NFC scout of the year. When you look at that defensive squad over the lasts 5 years it might tell you what direction we are going.

JoeF Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 (edited) Everyone of the scouting/personnel staff had other jobs. Pegula investments and Beane's recruiting power...a great combination so far... Edited May 17, 2017 by JoeF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted May 17, 2017 Author Share Posted May 17, 2017 @SalSports The Bills are hiring young people who aspire to be GMs themselves one day. Giving them opportunities to prove it. This is a clear plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Lightning Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 The pattern of younger guys ready to take the next step is emerging. From McD, Beane on down. Could we be getting it right at long last? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
