I love the nix promotion

[Mitchell55]

Hes the main 1 responcible for Kelly, Thomas, Reed, our OL, Smith, and just about 90% of the 90s bills. He also drafted Rivers, LT, Brees, Merriman, Jamal Williams, and most of the Chargers. He drafted 6 players that have been on the hall of fame ballot and Brees, LT, and Merriman have a big shot at the HOF. His 1st year here the S he drafted was the only bills to make the probowl. Also he got Wood, Levitre, and Nelson

Bill Polian = 90s Bills.

[Crisis]

I like Nix, but I'm a bit weary of his obsession with the 85 Bears.

[BILLSROCK1212]

We love that you're back!!

Bill Polian = 90s Bills.



GM- Final word in draft, signs players, makes coaching contracts


Scouting- Finds college players and brings them to GMs attention.

Nix joined the Bills in 1993 after Polian was fired. He had nothing to do with drafting Kelly, Thomas, Reed, our OL, or Bruce Smith; he was brought in by Butler, once he was made GM

He followed Butler to SD in 2000. That said he did have a hand in building SD.

Rivers was drafted by the Giants and traded to San Diego for Eli...

That was more of a deal thing tho. Didnt SD only draft him bc NYG wanted to make a trade. I think Nix scouted Rivers to and thought it was fair. It all starts with his analysis

[Mr. Pink]

I think Nix drafted Ryan Leaf, so I don't like him.

[SquishDaFish]

He DIDNT draft anyone at any time. this year will be his first time. He was a SCOUT and Scouts dont draft. They recommend kids to be drafted.

I read somewhere that he is in the draft room

[SquishDaFish]

Even if he was its just so he can put his 2 cents in. Thats what scouts do but they dont make the selection the GM does

thank you guys, I've never had as much fun on this site as today.

No! Was it over when the germans bombed Pearl Harbor?!

Germans?

[Oaf]

He wasn't responsible for the players we drafted LAST year right?

[TrEd FTW]

A little off topic, but my favorite day in history: When Abraham Lincoln signed the Declaration of Independence and then gave his "I have a dream" speech.

[SabreEleven]

Germans?

Mahdi is the "Didn't get the joke" guy...

[Crisis]

Germans?

You're wrong..but that's nothing new. The Nix hire has actually been a problem and it is now starting to be reported as so. This was a Ralph hire and a poor one at that. It showed most people outside the organization that the Bills are probably going to operate the same way they have been doing and nothing is going to change.
