Eagles Director of College Scouting Interviews for Bills GM Job

Eagles director of college scouting Trey Brown interviewed for the Bills' vacant general manager position on Saturday, the Bills announced. 

Brown, 32, has been a quick riser in the scouting community. He was named the Eagles' director of college scouting last May after holding the assistant director of college scouting title for one season. He started his time with the Eagles as a West Coast scout in 2013-14. 

Brown is the third candidate the Bills have announced so far in their search to replace the recently fired Doug Whaley. The other two are Brian Gaine (Texans) and Brandon Beane (Panthers). 

Brown's scouting career began with the Patriots in 2010 as a scouting assistant. He played cornerback at UCLA and was signed by the Bears as an undrafted rookie in 2008. While he didn't make the Bears' roster, he spent 2009 with the New York Sentinels of the UFL. 

In the last week, the Eagles' scouting department has reportedly been getting shaken up. According to 97.5 The Fanatic's Geoff Mosher, the team fired Chris Shea and David Hinson and according to Neil Stratton of Inside The League, the team parted ways with senior scout Marty Barrett.

With Joe Douglas in control of the personnel department, those changes aren't very surprising. But now it looks like the Eagles could lose another big piece of their scouting department whether they want to or not.
