NBC Sports has identified Buffalo Bills executive Brandon Beane as one of the top 10 general managers in the NFL.
Continuity at the general manager post was something the Buffalo Bills long lacked before hiring Brandon Beane.
Donahoe was fired after the 2005 season and was replaced by Marv Levy, the all-time winningest coach in Bills history who, on top of being 80 years old at the time, had no prior executive experience. Levy stepped down after two years and was replaced by an even less qualified candidate—director of non-football operations Russ Brandon, an Upstate New York native who got his start in professional sports as a baseball executive.
Beane has transformed Buffalo from an NFL bottom-dweller into a perennial contender and is, thus, justifiably viewed as one of the league’s best general managers. This sentiment has been echoed by NBC Sports writer Patrick Daugherty, “. . . Although this is now a “post-hype” roster, it is still a strong AFC East favorite, one likely to win another playoff game. It’s just a question of how much longer that remains enough for Beane and McDermott as the clock ticks on Allen’s wrecking-ball years.”It’s perhaps a bit unfair to describe the Bills' recent rosters as “top-heavy,” as a team being headlined by objective superstars at several positions does not necessarily mean they don’t have depth throughout the roster.
