-- Bills Eyeing DePaul? --

The Chicago Tribune reports Bobby DePaul, the Bears' director of pro personnel, is being mentioned as a possible candidate for the general manager's job if Buffalo fires GM Tom Donahoe. DePaul has been one of the chief architects on GM Jerry Angelo's staff. No team has asked permission to talk to DePaul. "When you get good people, you don't want them to leave," Angelo said. "But there's the other side of things and he is certainly deserving of a shot." DePaul has coached with Richie Petitbon on Joe Gibbs' staff in Washington and worked in Philadelphia when the Eagles went to four straight NFC championship games. "There have been some things that have come up [in the past]," Angelo said. "He has done such a tremendous job for us. It's not surprising."
