Dave Wannstedt Will Not Attend Senior Bowl

by Brian Galliford on Jan 23, 2011 8:10 AM EST in Buffalo Bills News

First thing's first on this Sunday morning: read this Dave Wannstedt article from BuffaloBills.com. It features several excellent quotes from the Bills' new Assistant Head Coach/Inside Linebackers, including several rather direct quotes about defensive coordinator George Edwards that should quell a few doubts about Wannstedt's presence in Buffalo.

One note from that piece worth mentioning here: Wannstedt will not be making the trip to Mobile, AL to coach in the 2011 Senior Bowl with his new coaching cohorts.

Instead of coaching up top 2011 NFL Draft prospects with Chan Gailey and the rest of Buffalo's coaching staff, Wannstedt will be in his office in Orchard Park, watching film and evaluating inside linebacker personnel, trying to get a firm grasp on Buffalo's defensive system and the players that run it.

"I’m going get in the office this week and get settled with the whole change over and transition and get to some things that I need to get done," Wannstedt told BuffaloBills.com.

2 things.....

I found the fact that they don’t know what their base defense should be next year very interesting. Our personel is sort of in between now.

And. did anyone cleary say who is in charge of the defense?

GO BILLS!

I think....

Wanny to an extent that he can concentrate on defensive game planning, while Chan focuses more on offense. I think that is the main reason of assistant head coach….

Went to my first "BB" meeting today... When I stood, introduced myself, and admitted I was a Billsaholic, the other members threw beer cans at me!!

Wanny is the Sam Weinbert of the Bills coaching staff

For my own personal sanity, I am officially banning myself from reading/saying anything about Cam Newton.... starting the day after the Bowl game until the start of the combine.
