Beane also has no ego, so top guys want to work for Beane Bills because they know they can further their careers without Beane preventing them. Beane is genuinely happy for these guys. I'm surprised that this isn't talked about more on ESPN or NFL Network. What?

Can you provide a list of examples of people who passed on other opportunities to take a parallel opportunity with Beane's Bills. Or is this just something you imagine to be true.
Ittakestime Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Seems like a big jump but good for him. Feel like he skipped the director level.

I'm not allowed to have an opinion? What roles with other teams did Mr. Gaine and Mr. Allen pass on to join the Bills? You presented your other post as a fact, not an opinion. My question was whether or not it was demonstrably true, or just an opinion. You have clarifed that it is just an opinion.

Yes, to clarify, it was my opinion. If I presented it as fact, I would have backed it up with a link. I did read (can't find a link) that Brian Gaine joined the Bills because he wanted to take on the challenge of a rebuild so he would have that on his resume for future GM openings.

That makes more sense though if he was the director at one point.
turftoe Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Seems like this should happen after the draft, then again, maybe we wouldn't want him in our draft room if he knew he was soon to be leaving.

JohnC Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 2 hours ago, GunnerBill said: I think we all said when Beane first put this front office together that it was an impressive group of guys. This is the second one to get promoted out already after Brian Gaine. It's really impressive that the Pats have lost so many front office staffers and scouts and they continue to grind on. They bring in young scouts who work themselves up the ladder and become appealing targets for other franchises. The departures of Allen to Miami and Gaines to Houston is a good sign that our front office is bringing in talented young staffers who have distinguished themselves. That's more of a good than a bad sign. 4
