'ZONA DUMPS ON DONAHOE

As a follow-up to our story from earlier on Tuesday regarding some harsh opinions as to Bills G.M. Tom Donahoe, we're now hearing that the Arizona Cardinals are unhappy with the manner in which Donahoe has handled the potential trade of tailback Travis Henry.

Per a league source, Donahoe "totally screwed up the deal." Apparently, Arizona was offering tackle L.J. Shelton and a flip-flop of second-round picks. During those discussions, Donahoe "was swearing up and down that he had offers from . . . Philadelphia and Tampa Bay . . . for straight third-round picks."

So "the Cardinals called [Donahoe's] bluff and both the Bucs and Eagles took [running backs] in the draft."

Per the source, Donahoe "lost all credibility with [the Cardinals] when he pulled that crap. He never once said he didn't like [Shelton], he just said he had better offers."

Since the draft, Donahoe has suggested that the Bills never wanted Shelton.

As a result, the Cardinals were chuckling when Donahoe was left holding the bag, and the source says that we can now add one more organization "to the list of teams that know [Donahoe] is full of sh-t."

Sounds like sour grapes from a team that screwed themselves.

We'll see who's full of ***** when Arizona doesn't have a capable starter in their backfield on opening day.

IT's a BS article look where it's from!

its BS

[Dozerdog]

I don't think I've ever seen a positive Bills story on PFT ever.


I honestly think they slant this **** because of some bias against the team. Florio must have lost some money on the Bills once.

Until I see a single story attributed to a real person, not an un-named source, it's all made up garbage.


If you beleive it, you got to be an idiot.

Florio has had a woody for Buffalo ever since BBI pissed him off.

I talk to florio once in a while on AIM. He doesn't have it out for the Bills, or any other team. He just passes on what people tell him. Some of it is wrong, some of it is dead on accurate. You guys paint a pretty negative image based on a whole lot of assumptions.

[Dozerdog]

You know what's odd?

According to the Cardinals, major media insiders (Clayton, Mortensen, Kirwan, Glaser...ect) and even the Bills- the Cardinals never returned the Bills calls after friday.

If events went down as they did in this piece of horse **** journalism - you think that all of those guys would have reported otherwise?

What a ******ed website.

I think we should make PFT the only site to which we block links.

Riiiight. He passes on info from his best buddies- Mr No-Name insider and Mr League Official.


He's got nothing. Only saps that buy his drivel.

Why? It's like beating up on Weiler. It's kinda fun.

His "league source" is Brian H. My sources inside PFT tell me so.

PEople could still paste the article, I just hate driving traffic to that site because that's exactly why PFT makes crap like that up.

I mean seriously, Donahoe goes on a number of Media sites before and after the draft- (as well as Denny Green) and pretty much says that the Shelton for Henry (plus the swap of picks) was the only deal.


Why would he turn it down?


It makes zero sense.














Unless you're into all those conspiracy theories- TD makes moves based on ego, power trips, and other Macheavelian reasons instead of making moves based on sound football management principles.
