Jerry Jabber Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 Whaley seems to be just like another GM that came from Pittsburgh, Tom Donahoe. “Buffalo’s draft classes have produced inconsistent results, but Whaley has shown the ability to find talent in free agency. Daugherty mentioned Taylor in his blurb on Whaley and two of his most inexpensive additions last year, Lorenzo Alexander and Zach Brown, both had career-years with Buffalo.” http://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/index.ssf/2017/04/buffalo_bills_doug_whaley_listed_as_worst_gm_in_league_by_rotoworld.html Donahoe had terrible drafts, but had some good pickups in FA. So far, both Whaley and Donahoe have around the same results, both of which have produced only one winning season each 9-7, followed by numerous losing seasons. I think the Bills should stop trying to poach the Steelers organization for people to run theirs.
billz4life820 Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 he is worse than donahoe... atleast donahoe knew the importance of the qb position

KellyToughII Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 he is worse than donahoe... atleast donahoe knew the importance of the qb position And tried. Funny Donahoe was considered really good until he went to work here... hummm....
Billy Zabka Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 At least Donahoe was constricted by the budget/meddling of Ralph. I think Whaley is worse.
jeffismagic Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 We don't have a GM in Buffalo. We have a group decision that can involve ownership, scouting, the coaching staff, marketing, and business guys. This is what Terry and Kim want. And who could argue with the results?
PolishDave Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 Where would you like them to start poaching people from? A dive bar in Cheektowaga? There are no dive bars in Cheektowaga. Bite your tongue.
Jerry Jabber Posted April 18, 2017 Author Posted April 18, 2017 Where would you like them to start poaching people from? A dive bar in Cheektowaga? I'm sure there are plenty of people from Cheektowaga that could do better than Whaley.
Rodrigo Borgia Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 I'm sure there are plenty of people from Cheektowaga that could do better than Whaley. Like you?
C.Biscuit97 Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 he is worse than donahoe... atleast donahoe knew the importance of the qb position TD: 31-49 (39 winning %), finished 8-8 or better twice in 5 years Whaley: 30-34 (47 winning %), finished 8-8 or better twice in 4 years. Great, informative post though.
Jerry Jabber Posted April 18, 2017 Author Posted April 18, 2017 Like you? I'm not from Cheektowaga, but I'm very confident I could field a better roster than Whaley.
Rodrigo Borgia Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 I'm not from Cheektowaga, but I'm very confident I could field a better roster than Whaley. Fine. Then prove it.
Wagon Circler Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 Whaley's tenure has been constricted by a stupid football coach that by all accounts, he did not hire. Let's see what he does with a new coach. I believe that he is a much better GM than the ole Losman grabber. If he can find the right QB, watch out!
Jerry Jabber Posted April 18, 2017 Author Posted April 18, 2017 Fine. Then prove it. I'd love the opportunity to be an NFL GM.
C.Biscuit97 Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 I'm not from Cheektowaga, but I'm very confident I could field a better roster than Whaley. Sure dude. I'm sure you're awesome in Madden. Keep sending your resume to NFL teams.
Rodrigo Borgia Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 I'd love the opportunity to be an NFL GM. Then send your resume to the Pegulas and do whatever it takes to get a meeting with them to show that you, and ONLY you, can bring a Lombardi Trophy to this team. Do you need someone to hold your hand while you do it?
JM2009 Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 Sure dude. I'm sure you're awesome in Madden. Keep sending your resume to NFL teams. No other NFL organization would hire Whaley as their GM.
C.Biscuit97 Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 No other NFL organization would hire Whaley as their GM. Another worthless unprovable post. We hired him from the Steelers, where he was an hot candidate
JM2009 Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 Another worthless unprovable post. We hired him from the Steelers, where he was an hot candidate He wasn't a GM when Nix hired him. Nix hiring him should have flashed red lights to begin with. He's not GM material.
Jerry Jabber Posted April 18, 2017 Author Posted April 18, 2017 Sure dude. I'm sure you're awesome in Madden. Keep sending your resume to NFL teams. Think of that one yourself? Actually I'm a Contract Manager and deal in negotiations. I know I would need the scouting experience. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what makes an NFL team successful. A good QB, a good O-line to give him time in the pocket. At least two quality WR's. Then send your resume to the Pegulas and do whatever it takes to get a meeting with them to show that you, and ONLY you, can bring a Lombardi Trophy to this team. Do you need someone to hold your hand while you do it? You want to hold my hand? I'm not looking for a date pal.
