ChevyVanMiller Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I was thinking about this today and I have to concur with you. I can't imagine that Nix would take total autonomy with a draft when he knew that he was stepping down and Whaley's future would be, at least in part, decided by how these players do.

26CornerBlitz Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I think it was. As we know some of these boys have not been fine young fellas. Straight from the Bills, they have said that Whaley "managed" the draft process this year. Tells me all that I need to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Personally I think Marrone had a huge say in this thing. http://www.buffalorumblings.com/2013/4/24/4263542/2013-nfl-draft-rumors-doug-marrone-likes-ej-manuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannc Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Straight from the Bills, they have said that Whaley "managed" the draft process this year. Tells me all that I need to know. Yep. Obviously, the Bills have known for some time that Buddy was leaving very soon after the draft, just as they have known that Whaley would be replacing him. Does anyone think any organization (even one as bumbling as this one) would allow a lame duck to decide which players the team was going to draft, especially when one of those choices is the expectant franchise QB and especially when his replacement is already on board? I expect (and hope) that Buddy had little or no influence on the Bills' draft this year. What I can't figure out is why the team played this charade. The only thing I can think of is that there was a clause in Buddy's contract that would have required the team to pay him more money if they terminated him before the 2013 draft.
