The Bills have made several changes to the team's player personnel development.


The Buffalo Bills today announced following changes within the team’s player personnel department.

Kelvin Fisher has been named Player Personnel Advisor. Prior to coming to Buffalo in 2013, Fisher spent 13 seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers after joining the team in 2000.

Pete Harris has been promoted to College Area Scout. Harris, who is entering his ninth season with the Bills, spent the past three seasons as the team’s BLESTO Scout. He spent time as a scouting assistant for the team during the 2011 and 2012 seasons. A native of Kenmore, NY, Harris joined the Bills in 2007 as a scouting and coaching intern before a three-year stint as a coaching assistant (2008-10).

Bo Taliaferro has been promoted to BLESTO Scout. Taliaferro is entering his fourth season with the Bills after spending the previous three seasons as the College Scouting Assistant (2013-2015) where he assisted with day to day operations of the Bills College Scouting Department.

Ryan Hollern has been hired as the team’s College Scouting Coordinator. Hollern joins the Bills after spending seven seasons with the New Orleans Saints organization, three as an Area Scout and four years as the club’s Combine Scout.

Collin Dotterer has been hired as a Player Personnel Assistant. Dotterer will be entering his first season in the NFL with the Bills in 2016.

On an unrelated topic, does a crap sandwich taste any better than a crap wrap?

Does anybody knows these guys. Is that good or bad?
In general, considering that we sucked for years, any changes I consider an improvement. But I know nothing about these guys.

My apologies for the omission. Allow me to play the role of Bills fan boy, even if I'm tardy

Kelvin Fisher! Good signing!
Pete Harris! Richly deserved promotion!
Bo Taliaferro! An up and comer!
Colin Dotterer! A young talent!

We'll look back at these moves as the start of a Bills dynasty! Woohoo!

Bo Taliaferro sucks, the guy is a joke. Still, it wouldn't matter who we hired as our next BLESTO Scout, as long as Russ Brandon is employed this team will never be competitive.

How the hell would anyone know anything about these people, especially here. The teams hiring them barely know anything about them.

Been a while since I've been impressed by their college scouting. Seems like they find a lot of brittle, flawed guys, "potential" guys that flounder while you wait too long to see what happens with them, guys that you always hope will have a better next year for one reason or another. Doesn't really seem to me that they come up with small college gems anymore. or too many quality UDFA's. Seems like they keep to certain schools and areas and conferences, like either they have weak affiliations in some areas, no personnel or just don't care to investigate them....or for that matter, I can't even tell if my perception is wrong and the guys are just misused, ill suited for possible use, snakebit by injury or otherwise squandered.

Thing is, there's no way to tell what, who or where the perceived flaws come from, no way to tell if these guys are/have been plus or minus, if it helps or hurts. Maybe Saints guy brings something to the table and new guy is an up and comer, and the three promoted guys were the good ones. Maybe not.

I have no clue.

I have no clue

That should be printed on every t-shirt you own, put on your night table on a nice wooden plaque and officially trademarked as your life Mission Statement.

Then again, I have apparently become an angry butthole rather than an unpaid comedian.

Oh, are now free to come to Hamilton for a CFL Tigercats game or do I need to keep the waterboarding going?

I like to think of you as an angry butthole unpaid comedian, sad that you fail to appreciate my humility. I do of course have a clue, and know exactly how these moves will turn out, but every once in a while I like to pretend so people will feel better and not be overly intimidated by my uncanny foresight.

Unfortunately though, my uncanny foresight still has me stuck on call 24/7 for multiple properties and it's unlikely to change before the Fall (which I'm hoping for because this is getting awfully old).

Some day, hombre. I'll even bring you a couple spare clues you can have on hand for your posts.

You have me confused with Victor.

There is no next year -- I am operating on the theory that the world will not exist in 2017.

Get off your ass.
