30dive Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Russ Brandon and Tom Modrak would make an outstanding front office team at One Bills Drive. Brandon, who has been the VP in charge of Business Delvelopment and Marketing has obvioulsy done an outstanding job in that arena at Buffalo. Modrak has stated on many occasions that he would rather scout and evaluate talent than sit behind a desk and play office boss would give us a person who's sole job would be to evaluate talent and negotiate with palyers and their agents. This combination would provide the Bills with the best of both worlds. There would be a clear division of duties allowing each of them to concentrate on their areas of strength. Basically Brandon would fill the seats and Modrak would fill the roster. IMHO we need a Manager/VP who will spend his full time dealing with football only issues, and a Manager/VP who will spend his time dealing with business (read daily operations) and marketing issues only. Modrak would not be distracted by the non-football issues that TD has had (read chosen) to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 That is likely what's going to happen and have no problem with the Brandon part. My only concern is Modrek certainly had a big hand in putting the Bills roster together, so will there be an improvement? Granted he did do pretty well in Phil, but then again TD did well in Pitt too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30dive Posted January 3, 2006 Author Share Posted January 3, 2006 Modrak has been a big question mark in my mind as well. I am hopefull that without TD around and Brandon taking care of his side of the shop we just might be OK. It also buys Wilson some time as to weather he wants to keep MM or bring someone else in, certainly Modrak can live with MM, but he could also ride his options out a wee bit longer.

The Quebecer Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 We might want to add Marc Ross to that front office! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
