Bringing you another Pittsburgh Steelers’ interview courtesy of our good friend Ron Lippock of the Pittsburgh Sports Daily Bulletin. Today, Ron talks with Doug Whaley, who served as the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Pro Scouting Coordinator from 1999 to 2009. He was named GM of the Buffalo Bills in 2013.

In the interview, the two discuss the two Steelers who helped Whaley early in his career, how the team’s draft process worked, and how Dan Rooney made Willie Parker a Steeler.
