[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 590478"] Manual might get another shot. GM Whaley drafted him and it looks like Whaley will be kept on, which is a good move for the team in my opinion, if not for Whaley, considering the following circumstances. The new owner Terry Pegula may already be cr*pping the nest. According to local reports he's having Whaley screen coaching applicants while Pegula and his ex-cheerleader trophy wife Kim will be involved in the interview process. It's reported that Kim will be involved in the executive management of the ball club in some capacity. To make matters worse, it's been reported that the new head coach once hired will report directly to Terry Pegula. In all of this, one wonders what the head of football operations, Russ Brandon, is supposed to be doing. They tried to get Polian to come back as a consultant for the new hires, but when Marone quit and Orton retired, Polian backed out because, in his words, the job now looked like too much "heavy lifting." Maybe he got a load of Kim, too. If one could picture Dan Snyder with two heads, that's what this is shaping up to be. The Pegula's bought the Sabres in 2011 and, with Terry and Kim holding the reins, managed to get them into last place 3 years running with a trial-and-error revolving door of front office personnel and coaches. The Pegula's are huge fish in the relatively small Western New York pond. They're billionaires with local roots. They've had a big hand in downtown redevelopment. They kept the Bills out of the clutches of a Toronto consortium. So nobody's willing to call them out on their team management clusterf*cks. Doug Whaley has put together some excellent drafts in recent years and made some very good free agent signings. The Manual pick was a risk that did not work out; then again how many decent QBs have come into the league in the last 5 or 10 years? He's in the vast majority in failing to score in the QB crap shoot. I would hope Whaley's exploring other options if his contract permits. The Packers appear to have an opening for head of Pro Personnel with Wolf's promotion. It would be a step down for Whaley, but what price sanity? [/QUOTE]
