YoloinOhio Posted January 5, 2016 Author Posted January 5, 2016 I wonder if Vic's source is Polian. I'm not kidding. I have had that thought before and mentioned it here, because of his agenda to get his son back into a GM role
Manther Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) Then why even bother with an extension? The Pegulas could easily wait to determine his fate if they were thinking along these lines. If things are to their satisfaction extend Whaley and if not his contract would be up anyway. IF that is the contract the Bills have with Whaley it is for the Pegula's to cover their butt. It prevents Whaley from skipping town for a different job because his contract expired and still not having to commit to him long term. Edited January 5, 2016 by Manther
3rdand12 Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 I think someone at the bills just leaked some false info to make the snooze look bad I consider this a real possibility. The animosity from OBD towards the Buff Media is starting to show in the pressers. How many times and how many players/coaches can be asked how many times about the spoiler angle in the Jets game ?
Manther Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 This is dumb. Not liking the Pegulas decision making thus far as owners. Why is it dumb? For what it's worth, I agree that extending Whaley is a bad decision. I was hoping that both he and Rex would be shown the door. Am I surprised? Not at all. Who gets the next big contract? Brandon? Whaley has been the best GM this decade and it is dumb to resign him?

3rdand12 Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 @WGR550 Source: Bills will sign Whaley to contract extension http://bit.ly/1O3F5VA Bravo! F5! !!
BuffaloBillsForever Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Why is it dumb? Whaley has been the best GM this decade and it is dumb to resign him? Whaley is the best at being mediocre. So what.
Kelly the Dog Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 In other news TBN is now reporting that the Bills will be using Leondard Hankerson as the spokesperson for their M&T sponsorship campaign this year.

dave mcbride Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 I have had that thought before and mentioned it here, because of his agenda to get his son back into a GM role That sounds plausible to me.
sir andrew Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 The timing of these conflicting reports is as hilarious as the poor timing of this ad: So that's where babies come from...
3rdand12 Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 I have had that thought before and mentioned it here, because of his agenda to get his son back into a GM role crazy talk, conspiracy theorist and certainly possible. Someone has been trying to break the band up, all the way back to Days of Marrone. i have said it before. Pegulas should hire someone to track this garbage down and expunge them. So that's where babies come from... and stuff...
Bill from NYC Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) Whaley has been the best GM this decade and it is dumb to resign him? First of all, thanks for the dialogue. My fairly strong reservation wrt Whaley is that he is a bit too free with the team resources for my liking. Hey, he certainly has hit a few home runs. Tyrod (I will credit him for TT), Darby, and my man Karlos were fine moves. Sammy, imo, while a ballsy move, was costly. And when the deal was made there was no Tyrod. In retrospect it was a good move but that draft was chock full of top wideouts. EJ was a major blunder, as were Bryce Brown and Kujo. Hiring Rex was a disaster too imo. There were others, such as the McCoy contract. Badol will disagree with me, but imo draft choices are worth more since the rookie salary cap was implemented. No more spending 36 million on a Donte Whitner. I prefer getting more to giving them up. Hey, jmo. If I owned the team I would not let him be reckless with trades and contracts.

Sammy and McCoy are still good moves in my eyes. EJ is a big bust on him, Kujo the same. Bryce Brown? Ah well we will live without that 4th round pick.
YoloinOhio Posted January 5, 2016 Author Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) @tydunne Parameters of the extension still need to be presented to Pegulas, but they're getting a deal done. Team trusting patience, continuity. That's going to be the theme of the off-season, too. #Bills will emphasize re-signing their own. Belief within is the talent's is in house.

I can dig this facet of critique. Doug got a bit out of hand with the win now motto. As he has said recently though, expect little activity in FA. Sign the developed players. Hope he doesn't get all antsy in the draft again and fall in love ! Sammy is turning up up roses without question But from a sound business perspective , that was nuts. @tydunne Parameters of the extension still need to be presented to Pegulas, but they're getting a deal done.

Trying something new eh? sounds fine by me.... for now....
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 I believe it is at either FSU or Clemson. They registered for safeties and LBs and a gift card so they can get a QB later, if needed. Shoot. I was hoping Alabama was the place!
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Whaley is the best GM we've had since Polian. This is great news.
