I don't understand. The bills want to shake up the front office immediately after the draft?

That GM already wasn't on great terms with ownership and I'm sure McD is trying to leverage the situation to get "his" people in the building. It's a snake in the grass approach, but it's likely the smart approach.

But why not do it before the draft? I highly doubt McD had the ability to just draft anyone he wanted, and if him and the GM weren't on good terms, why not do it before hand?

Conspiracy theory: Beane leaked our targets to the Bills 

It sounds juicy and the Bills trading to jump in front of us multiple times certainly lends it credibility, but I just can't imagine that it actually happened. I have to imagine that's the kind of thing that would get you blackballed around the league if word got out about it. No one wants that type of guy in their building or wants to work with that type of guy.

      Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.

      It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?

      I can't see a world where the money goes down, but maybe your lottery odds are now your contract numbers you can offer.  Thunder? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 20 million.  Hornets? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 80 million.  Some form of a system where the money is still there, but so is the freedom of choice (on top of bad teams getting *some* competitive advantage to signing them).
