Rigotz Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Out of curiosity, I was taking a look at previous Whaley regime drafts. What a mess. 2016: 1st Round: Shaq Lawson - declined 5th year option 2nd Round: Reggie Ragland - traded for 4th round pick - no longer on team 3rd Round: Adolphus Washington - practice squad player - no longer on team 4th Round: Cardale Jones - traded for 7th rounder - cut - no longer on team 5th Round: Jonathan Williams - practice squad player - no longer on team 6th Round: Kolby Listenbee - never played - no longer on team 6th Round - Kevon Seymour - traded for Kaelin Clay - both no longer on team Everyone misses picks, but damn...
Wsam4031 Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 I was looking at the whole draft earlier and the whole draft was a bust. A few players came out of it but overall not good
mannc Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 One of the worst drafts ever...thanks Whaley (and Wrex).
Albany,n.y. Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Why Whaley wasn't fired immediately after the 2016 season ended is beyond belief. He was already gagged and told never to speak to the media after his disaster of a final press conference. 1
Rocky Landing Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 To be fair, though, all of those guys, with the exception of Listenbee, are currently on an NFL team. 3 1
Doc Brown Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Can we just refer to that draft as "That which must not be named." 3

Seasons1992 Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 All regimes after John Butler were really terrible.

Wait a minute, now... 2018: Round #1 Josh Allen Tremaine Edmunds Round #3 Harrison Phillips Round #4 Aaron Johnson Round #5 Siran Neal Wyatt Teller Round #6 Ray Ray McCloud Round #7 Austin Proehl Even as recent as it is, you'd have to be pretty cynical to call that a terrible draft.

YodaMan79 Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 (edited) Before this group of executives came in, I routinely would tell anyone who'd listen that the average fan the watched college football that had access to an over the counter draft guide and scouting reports would have out performed previous Bills regimes. The fans here (Philadelphia) would laugh and give a cursory nod, but looking back at so many misses from the late 90's to 16 it seems like couldn't have done worse if they tried. And I thought Chip Kelly was bad... Edited June 20, 2019 by YodaMan79
njbuff Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Sean McDermott and Brandon Beane aren't the new HC/GM combo for nothing. They are going to get their chance to fail miserably too. Let's just hope they are the exception to the rule for Buffalo.
17islongenough Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Why does everyone forget about Reid Ferguson?

Buffalo86 Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 Too bad Whaley never got to choose his own HC. Or draft his own players. Or cross the street without someone holding his hand.
