aka Future GM once Nix decides to retire. Congrats to Whaley. I hope he starts bringing some of that Pittsburgh success to Buffalo.

Re: Heads up: Bills to officially promote Whaley

he was already assistant GM only thing that changed was they dropped the pro from personnel so now he is director of all personnel pro and college

so basically before he was doing John Guy's job and helping Nix

now he is doing John Guy's and Tom Modrak's Job and also helping Nix

Re: Heads up: Bills to officially promote Whaley

i'd like to see him bring in a solid free agency team when the lockout ends. they don't have to be studly names. they just have to be good depth at places and maybe a starter here or there to allow rookies to learn up.

no more kawika mitchells.

Re: Heads up: Bills to officially promote Whaley

While I don't think it's exactly unexpected, confirmation of his 'advancement' gradually, is a good thing. There's now even more obviously a decent guy in place, to take over whenever Nix decides to step down - which I hope is no time soon.

This is good news. The Bills got a young up and comer for the future in their administration, other than Russ Brandon. Buddy Nix has someone that he can groom to take over for him when he's ready to retire.

Whaley basically just got Modrak's work added to his current job. He will now be in charge of scouting the top prospects at the college level as well as scouting Bills opponents on the teams schedule. This dude just got himself a full plate. I just hope he can handle it all.

Stability is key and he obviously sees eye to eye with Nix & the scouts.

Re: Heads up: Bills to officially promote Whaley

Excellent. We all know Ralph won't hire people he doesn't know so this gives Ralph time to be familiar with Whaley when Nix is ready to leave.

Re: Heads up: Bills to officially promote Whaley

Typical in-house promotion from a cheap owner...Whaley's been here a full season, so he no longer is the new guy on the block but rather part of the old guard. Same old, same old.
