I haven't listened to it yet but Patrick Moran's podcast Talking Buffalo yesterday interviewed Dunne about his interview with Beane.

 

It's free for anyone 

Does Patrick Moran's interview of Tyler Dunne's interview of Brandon Beane discuss Beane's interview of Keon Coleman asking questions of Sean McDermott?

I think this is a key quote:

 

Anyone have any doubts that Beane is talking about Diggs here?  Because back-to-back playoffs, he did disappear.

I think he is certainly one of them, but they had a number of passengers these past two years he could have been including.

You win the thread.

But what's Beane's excuse?  Beane is known to hold a grudge, remember the Washington fiasco. 

 

McDermott may have forgiven Dunne but Beane didn't have to help that guy out. 

 

I get the impression that Beane and McD aren't just coworkers, they're friends who talk a lot.  Maybe daily.  So I'm guessing Beane told McD that Dunne wanted to interview him and McD raised no objections.  

 

If McD was against the interview, I doubt if it would have happened.

Sometimes a pay wall is a great idea

Let the rich people pay for that crap.

I doubt it on the "price of keeping quiet"

 

I believe after the initial shock wore off and the season ended, McD probably did drill into the piece, not as a "report card" but in the principle of continuous improvement

 

I do think one issue raised by McD might have been "if you're writing about me, why not ask me for an interview?" to which Dunne's answer would be "I'm not credentialed and have no access".  Then McD/Beane might offer to trade some 1:1 access for Dunne agreeing to reach out for their take before writing another such piece.

 

Agree

McDermott and Dunne sat down and spoke at the combine
