The Dean Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) Not the biggest Florio fan. Love his site, but most of his "takes" are inane and he seems to be VERY full oh himself. But credit when it's due. Ok. One more time https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/04/08/bills-g-m-brandon-beane-joins-pftpm-for-extended-chat/ Edited April 9, 2020 by The Dean Bad link.

Lurker Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 I have a social distancing policy when it comes to Florio... 1
Chandler#81 Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Thanks, Deano. Hope you & yours are well and hibernating. a couple takes; -Dan (Dean?) Evans is on the hot seat as Brandon’s in house tekkie to assure an error free Draft. Hoping he doesn’t become infamous.. -OL who live in apartments don’t have access to a ‘MUST’ service of heavy lifting. -NFL has hitched its lifeblood to ZOOM -for better or worse. I imaging there’s going to be multiple setups to stay dialed in on the Draft events and chat privately with his team. -Draft seems destined to be the most dubious in history, given how much insight the team gets with mtgs at the facility for prospects. -We’re not moving back into Round 1 (my take from Brandon’s comments) -Are those Pall Malls in his ears or Lucky Strikes? -Brandon has a 17 y/o Son? ? Was he 12 when he became a Dad?

CaptnCoke11 Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Someone show Beane how to wear AirPods properly!

stuvian Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Florio's elevation to football expert is the triumph of marketing over knowledge. He knows no more than anyone on this board 2 1

Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Does anyone who is criticizing Florio actually watch PFT Live with Chris Simms? It is great. Florio is not full of himself at all, and he doesn't pretend to be an Xs and Os guy. He's very fair and has a lot of input on the business/labor side of things. Best football talk show on TV, IMO. 1 hour ago, stuvian said: Florio's elevation to football expert is the triumph of marketing over knowledge.

Good for him. 2 1 1 2

JP's Voice Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Makes sense that Beane asks everyone in the organization to give their input on how the recruit reacts. Reminds me a story I came across a few years ago. Great leadership from Beane. https://www.businessinsider.com/charles-schwab-ceo-takes-job-candidates-to-breakfast-messes-up-their-order-2016-2 1

Good for him. I watch it. I don't hate Florio but he is regularly down on Allen and the Bills. Simms on the other hand loves the Bills.
