Now that the DP Fired Murray and Bylsma Will the DP Fire Whaley?

OR just go frack us and go "dig another hole" while the Bills continue to suck under Whaley (just like Kim does)?

"After reviewing the past season and looking at the future of our organization, Kim and I have decided to relieve general manager Tim Murray and head coach Dan Bylsma of their duties," Pegula said in the statement. "We want to thank Tim and Dan for their hard work and efforts that they have put in during their tenures with the club. We wish them luck. We have begun the process to fill these positions immediately."

Doesn't matter. They'd only replace Whaley with an idiot anyway. For some reason it's just meant to go on and on and on in Buffalo sports. Maybe we spent all our sports karma on the 4 Bandits lacrosse championships and 10 division titles.

No. If it was going to happen, it would have happened in January. Early February at the latest.

The Pegula's have fired the Sabres GM and HC. Don't think that is the only GM they are going to release from his duties

That is what I am talking about.

AND when hiring a new Bills GM, Kim must not be in the interview.

I am starting to turn on Whaley.

This restricted Free Agent thing bothers. That said without Whaley we may have never had these guys on our team, so I am sort of stuck on my opinion.

Whaley is average to slightly above average in terms of draft hits, but his trade up for Sammy was not a great idea. Also only drafting one QB has significantly bothered me but that is not so much Whaley as a whole organizational deal.

Since 1983 the bills have drafted 10 QBs. Since 2001 (year after Brady so not counting Brady) the Pats have drafted 8.

Ron Wolfe was famous for saying you draft one every year and if you can flip a decent backup for assets you do it if you have a franchise guy. The league is a passing league and without a QB you will not win, so why do we keep passing on QBs. I am not saying early QBs every year but we should draft one in rounds 1-7 every year.

Hogan and Gillislee should have received a second round tendfer for the extra 700k. Hogan would have probably signed with another team this offseason but would have counted towards UFA lost to help with comp pick formula. With Mike we get a 5th back where we have had some success with RBs but man 700k.

I do not care they both went to the Pats it could have been any other team and this rings true.

I know our cap issues go away next year but there is some serious miscalculations going on.

Who do you think will own the team when Terry passes away. I say let her in everything so she learns and when that unfortunate day arrives she has learned what it takes.

^ if we could keep him as a lead scout and have someone else make the final decisions and contracts I'd be happy

I hope it is sold to another Buffalo area billionaire.

Firing Doug Whaley would feel great - temporarily - until we realize Russ Brandon has seized control of the entire team's decision-making apparatus.

That's when this team truly reaches new depths of failure.

Whaley is average to slightly above average in terms of draft hits,

That's pretty generous, IMO he's average to slightly below.

I would place him in the Poor to ****** category.
