The Buffalo Bills are hiring former Texans director of personnel Matt Bazirgan for their senior personnel executive job, according to a league source.Bazirgan previously worked closely with Bills executive Brian Gaine in Houston when Gaine was the Texans' general manager.Bazirgan was hired by the Texans in 2018 after working 14 years in the New York Jets' personnel department. 

Bazirgan worked in a leadership role with the pro and college scouting departments in Houston. 

With the Jets, Bazirgan was director of college scouting after previous stints as director of pro personnel and assistant director of pro personnel. 

A former starting quarterback for Bates College, Bazirgan was previously an area scout, college scouting assistant and intern for the Jets.

Unless I missed the news somewhere, this must be a preemptive move by Beane to replace someone that Schoen and the Giants are going to poach for their front office since they recently dumped some long time scouting folks after the draft.

 

But I also share the concern that this might not even be a great hire looking at the Texans and what a dumpster fire the entire organization is right now.

would not have happened with the insights and recommendations from Gaine who worked closely with the candidate who has 22 years of experience.
they interviewed others so had the ability to compare and contrast candidates as well
this is the Schoen replacement on the management team ?

Texans & Jets? Yikes! Only missing the Jags. Don't do it Beane!!!! Run away!!

He’s not the owner or the GM.  He can suggest a lot of players but the GM and, it seems in those 2 places, bad ownership can say no.  Or players can choose to go elsewhere.  Or coaches didn’t do a good job developing players acquired.

 

The guy has experience, knows how the league works and is in a better organization with an owner who will spend money and an elite GM-HC combo.

 

Relax.

Even though you know absolutely nothing about the guy.  I’m sure this guy was part of the problem 🙄

No offense, but I will trust Beane's judgment on this hire vs. your concern.

Jets and Texans the teams on this guy's resume....

 

I hope he's looking to make a change because those teams didn't listen to his advice.

If they did the exact opposite of what he said, this guy will be a rock star

Lots of quality folks work for dumpster fires.
