Jiminy Christmas! Shoes! posted:Why did they let a regime they want to fire be in charge of the draft? This confused me, too, but apparently the Bills have done it a couple of times before. Which means it is definitely a good idea.

It's really insane to me that the dated rear end, unpopular views of septuagenarians still are such a dominant force in our society.

Whaley was, sadly, probably the best GM the Bills have had since the beginning of their playoff drought. He didn't give lucrative extensions to marginal white defensive players over Jabari Greer and he didn't draft Aaron Maybin. But he was still bad. EJ was, obviously, a massive whiff and Whaley was physically incapable of acknowledging Manuel should be a sunk cost. He gets a lot of credit for finding talent in the most obscure places (Lorenzo Alexander, Zach Brown, Chris Hogan, Mike Gillislee), but he was unable to retain most of said talent and his drafts were low-key disastrous. And, I mean, he somehow managed to burn through two coaching staffs in four years.

Grittybeard posted:Someone remind me what the Bills did in free agency this year if anything? They didn't cut Tyrod at least. Keeping Tyrod was the marquee move. They lost Gilmore and Gillislee to the Patriots. They signed Micah Hyde. https://twitter.com/optimumscouting/status/858682680430526468

Gumbel2Gumbel posted:If Ground Control is to be believed Gillislee could turn out to be something special, too. He was insanely good when McCoy was in the lineup, less so the couple games when he was the starter. But he'll be an absolute stud in New England.

GobiasIndustries posted:Why wait until the day after the draft to fire the dude and everyone responsible for it, was it something to do with free agency and bad timing? They put it as "it was the end of the scouting season". Theoretically they didn't want Bills opponents to about the much coveted Whaley intel. I think probably, though, they originally planned on giving Whaley at least one more year until McDermott entered the picture. McD really won over ownership and convinced them that Whaley was bad at his job (see the hubbub around Taylor, Tyrod). National media outlets labeling Whaley as the worst GM in e league probably didn't help his case.

FizFashizzle posted:Benjamin for Watkins straight up It's rumored that the Bills are not going to pick up Watkins's fifth-year option, so they might not! (As a quick aside, I personally think the Watkins "injury-prone" narrative is overblown.)
