Bills not alone. Colts releasing director of college scouting T.J. McCreight and others from scouting department, per league sources.
I thought the Colts did okay in the draft?

Apparently letting scouts go is common after the draft. I was shocked but the Eagles did the same last year. Apparently, scouts are on a year to year contract and new regimes/GM's sometimes keep the old or current scouts until the draft and then release them. Thinking is that they have done all the leg work so why introduce new scouts when you can use what they have done.
I assume this is in response to what I said.
I don't think the Denver D was historically good or considered legendary. And you forget the Bucs did the same. With hat in mind, the Chiefs offense isn't as bad as those teams you referenced. Smith is better than Dilfer, Boller, Johnson, and yes better than Manning in his last season.
I see the Chiefs more like the Seahawks when they won. Or the Flacco Ravens.
Dominant D and the weakness was an inconsistent offense. Short of signing or trading for a top 5 starting QB, the best they can to improve a 12 win team is infuse more and more impact talent at RB, WR, CB, or DE. Not trading away valuable picks to get a QB who may or may not be the next franchise QB in 3-5 years.
And Reid the QB guru has netted only 1 real superstar in McNabb. His replacement Kolb was a joke. Foles was coached up and only did well under Chip. Alex Smith was "fixed" by Harbaugh and Reid traded for the finished product.
The only impressive work Reid has done with a QB not named McNabb is Vick that one year where Vick went on a great run.
How did Buffalo give him a chronic foot injury?
Or because you don't want the outgoing scouts to leak the draft board. You can still relieve them of duties even if they're on contract. The contract just means you have to pay them out still.
Scouts all knew they were getting let go after the draft. That leaked a few days ago.
Smith is better than those QBs. All of them during those runs in fact. Chiefs defense was nowhere near as good as any of those.
The Bucs and the Ravens are also in that top ten with other teams such as the 85 Bears, who had a much better situation on offense.
The Bucs and the 2015 Broncos are the two best defenses against the pass since they started keeping track. The Broncos are #2 but are in some ways more impressive than the Bucs because of rule changes, back in the Bucs day corners and safeties could basically mug receivers.
That Ravens team was HISTORICALLY great on Defense and down the stretch HISTORICALLY bad on offense. They went multiple games in a row without offensive touchdowns.
Looking at the list of FA CBs left: http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/cornerback/
There are some young CBs who either never lived up to expectations or were salary cap casualties.
The Eagles need to bring one of these guys in. Should look at Flowers, Verner, and McCourty.
Our boy Boykin is still out there too!

Remember when he was BFFs with Trejo...how did that end up?
Manning and Wilson are not bad QBs. Manning didn't have the arm talent, but he was able to protect the ball and make smart plays. Smith isn't in their league.

Not during the Super Bowl run, Manning was dog shit that year, Defense were saving his ass game after game
Both turned Dallas away as well so you should feel extra happy
They benched him for Brock.
Of course. They want that Vrabel coaching
Well that and not living in southern Oklahoma

Holy fuck I'm hungover from the draft. Aside from the QB pick, satisfied with Lynch's first draft.

President Donald Trump is a huge fan of former Iowa quarterback and San Francisco 49ers draftee C.J. Beathard.
Back in January during Trumps primary campaign rally in Iowa, the Hawkeyes football team was there. He then referred to Beathard as the next Tom Brady.
Weve got the next Tom Brady right over here, the quarterback, hes going to be the next Tom Brady, Trump said via The Gazette.
The next Tom Brady, come on. And I know Tom, and hes a great guy, I want to tell you.
:')
Blonde hair, blue eyes, white skin that's all trump saw.

I'm sure Dylan Cole did, Joe Mathis was supposedly going to workout with Dallas
No shit Manning isn't bad. But his last year and Wilson early on, they weren't carrying their teams.
The D was. You can with Alex but need to load up. Can't sit back planning for the future and then when they come up short again lament that they can't get it done

Eh. I knew before the playoffs started that they were toast. Should have traded Griffin when they had the chance.
They had to create more time to shoot all state commercials.
I think I saw that same mock.

I never understood the hype with that team.
Maybe because I never believed in the CP3 hype. Talented PG? Absolutely. Guy you build a championship team around? Hell no.
This does not sound like JCB behavior

Young man needs to learn, can't be saying any where but Cleveland, what if in 2 years they are the only team willing to give you a shot, because you failed in Texas..
Didn't research the draft as much as have had previous years due to life being busy at the moment but major thanks to Mech, Chris and Hindl and others for the knowledgeable posts as well as others who put out work in for the draft here.
Think the Raiders did well. Love the Obi pick the most. Scary that Jenkins and Lee might start at linebackers though.
