Ryan mentioned numerous times how broke he was and how he can't afford this or that. Clearly this decision was a financial one for him and had nothing at all to do with statement he made regarding Allen. I’m sure his decision had much more (or all) to do with this than the drafting of Allen. But he did play it out that way. After they took him he didn’t come to work the next day (maybe already had the day off) and they commented he was MIA. He also tweeted right after something like “I really did like this job” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDingus Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Well, he stood by his words. I may not agree with the logic behind it, but unlike all those morons who say "I'll move to Canada if _______ is elected!" he actually followed through. So hats off to him for not being a liar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockpile233 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Shocked how gullible some people are calling him an idiot like that was literally the reason he is quitting. From what I hear the pay is garbage and I take this as a funny troll job on the way out, which was happening with or without the drafting of Allen.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 He definitely was planning on leaving. Radio money sucks starting out. It's tough to move up. Takes a lot of butt kissing.

Seems rather silly, but he's got other opportunities elsewhere. But just the fact that he's doing what he threatened to do , I must say he's a man of his word...even tho I do see it as comical lol ..perhaps a GoFundMe page is in order to keep him outta soup kitchens and standing with a sign at your nearby Interstate exit?......

starrymessenger Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 People change jobs all the time. Nothing wrong with that. But saying he would quit if the Bills drafted Allen was stupid. Doubling down and ostensibly actually doing it is doubly stupid (whether it's the true reason or not). I wanted Rosen but Allen is full value as a legit early first round pick with a chance to be great. So I question his judgement and ability as an evaluator of football talent as much as I question his behaviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude... we're talking about Josh Allen... not heisman winner Lamar Jackson, not NCAA title winner DeShaun Watson, not Heisman Winner Baker Mayfield... we're talking about Josh Allen who's being compared to EJ Manuel(who had more success against better competition then Allen). It's not hard to evaluate Josh Allen & stake your job on it cause it should have been a no brainer to NOT draft this guy in the 1st. But all you need is one team to fall for the banana in the tailpipe... & of course the Bills would be that team...smh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JA is demonstrably capable of executing in a way that EJ never was. Never. Forget the stats. Look at the tape. I never wanted EJ. I entirely agreed with Bud Elliot's pre-draft evaluation of him in Tomahawk Nation (a nightmare that came true). I agreed with the Patriot's board that had EJ slotted as a a fifth round pick under the caption "athlete". Josh Allen is 100% legit as a high first round pick. Allen can do what EJ never could. He just needs to do it more consistently. That boils down to coaching and patience. The only thing that EJ and JA otherwise have (had) in common is that they are (were) both raw and in need of refinement, but you can say that about all college QBs. Not saying that JA will fully realize his potential, but he has a chance. EJ never did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
