Re: Modrak out as head of Scouting
I wonder who will take over his job. Probably somebody already in the orginization.

Re: Modrak out as head of Scouting
'bout time...when many wanted TD fired there were those of us who claimed Modrak was more of the problem...
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.Comment

Re: Modrak out as head of Scouting
Yeah, this was definitely in the works before the draft. Probably months ago, in fact. The scouting process for this draft started over a year ago.Comment

Re: Modrak out as head of Scouting
This smells a good story behind it and I wonder who will get it out first.
From what I understand, Modrak reached out and got Nix back into One Bills Drive. But the announcement today have all the marking of a not happy divorce.
Don't under-estimate the impact of this move. Remember virtually all the acouts are hired by Modrak during his 10 years with the Bills. This is like changing your head coach of the team.Comment

Who's Haley?Originally posted by justasportsfan
If you mean Whaley, it's a possibility but he might be a little young yet. He's well known for scouting defensive players in Pittsburgh. Lamar Woodley, Polamalu are the most notables.Comment

Re: Modrak out as head of Scouting
Don't forget Buddy may poach now-Charger, formerly ex-Bill scouts who have been ingrained in the scouting style he wants here:
Mike Biehl was promoted to assistant director of college scouting in April 2008 after serving as a college scout from ’01. He scouts the Midwest region of the country and handles other key player assignments. Biehl spent the 1998-00 seasons working in the personnel department for the Buffalo Bills.
Biehl was born in Champaign, Illinois. He attended Paxton (Ill.) HS, where he played baseball and basketball, and he graduated from Illinois State University with a bachelor’s degree in finance and a master’s in sports management.
Mike and wife, Kim, have a son, Nathan, and a daughter, Kendall, and they make their home in Tolono, Illinois.
Gibbons evaluates college players in the Northeast region of the country. He was hired by the Buffalo Bills in 1992 as an administrative assistant in scouting and spent 12 years (1995-03) as a college and pro scout. Prior, he spent 1990-91 as a graduate assistant at the University of Pittsburgh.
Gibbons is a graduate of Indiana (Pa.) University where was a four-year letterwinner as both a linebacker and tight end. In 1989, he joined the Indians’ staff as tight ends coach.
Gibbons was born in Dunkirk, N.Y. He and his wife, Kristin, have two sons, E.J. and Thomas, and reside in Hamburg, N.Y.

Re: Modrak out as head of Scouting
I would seriously suggest y'all do it. I believe Hand is the one scout on the staff that hounded them and they eventually gave a job!Originally posted by mysticsotoComment

Re: Modrak out as head of Scouting
Why? X-Era would have drafted Gabbert.Originally posted by mysticsoto
And DB would have drafted a reach so that if xxx player worked out he could have one of those I'm smarter than everybody moments.Last edited by TacklingDummy; 05-04-2011, 11:32 AM.Comment
