Orton's Arm Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Article by: John Doe On the Monday morning after the draft, I drove to the corner of Abbot and Bills Drive to interview Jauron. Instead of taking me into his office, he sat down with me in a quiet corner. Interviewer: Could you touch on the Bills' plans for Toronto? Jauron: We just want to keep our options open, rather than painting ourselves into a corner. Interviewer: Describe the preparation that goes into the draft. Jauron: We send scouts to the four corners of the earth to search for football talent. Interviewer: How soon before some of those draft picks become regular contributors on offense and defense? Jauron: Big days from our draft picks are just around the corner. Interviewer: What's the one thing you look for the most in a draft pick? Jauron: When you talk to him, does he look you in the eye, or do his eyes wander to every corner of the room? Everything else is secondary. Interviewer: You've gone 7-9 in each of the previous two seasons in Buffalo. How do you think you'll do this year? Jauron: I think we'll turn the corner. Interviewer: The Dolphins have improved themselves in the off-season. How do you think you'll do against them? Jauron: We've got them backed into a corner. (The corners of his mouth curved upward in a smile when he said this.) Interviewer: Describe your relationship with Bills' fans. Jauron: I'm glad they're in our corner. Interviewer: Head coaches get paid pretty well, and it must be nice to be able to afford any car you want. What's the single most important feature you look for in a car? Jauron: How well it handles corners. Interviewer: Your attention seems to be focused on a particular position. Would you care to elaborate on that? Jauron: No. Interviewer: Why not? Jauron: Because I'd feel like I was cornered. Interviewer: What's your least favorite shape? Jauron: The circle. Interviewer: Why? Jauron: Because a circle doesn't have any . . . oh, never mind.
