Mr. WEO Posted November 1, 2012 Posted November 1, 2012 "Draft position becomes irrelevant after contracts are signed. Fodder for revisionist historians." Ryan Leaf fixed.
RuntheDamnBall Posted November 1, 2012 Posted November 1, 2012 his role here is......Who knows in Wanny's scheme. In a normal 4-3 it would be to plug the run and eat up the O-lineman to free up blitzes and LB's. Here, it's like "stand around and see what happens." Actually, in the Wannstedt D, his role is "fit the gap, execute, and see what happens."
It's in My Blood Posted November 1, 2012 Posted November 1, 2012 Does anyone know if he went home during the bye week? Maybe having some time with friends and family will help with the grieving process. I don't have a brother but could only imagine losing my mother/father or one of my sisters and what that would do to me. I would need at least a few weeks to grieve as well as months to accept it. That being said being away from home and not being able to help your family cope is another huge burden. I'm hoping he got to go home. I'm also hoping he comes back with some rage and takes it out on opponent's offenses! (hey I can't be Mr. Niceguy ALL the time ) I believe Dareus and Stevie Johnson went to London last week to rep New Era ( I think ). Regardless, being away from it all might have helped him.
thebug Posted November 1, 2012 Posted November 1, 2012 Can we at least learn how to spell the mans name right? D. A. R. E. U. S. Actually it's Dareus. No periods in his name.
McBeane Posted November 1, 2012 Posted November 1, 2012 Actually it's Dareus. No periods in his name. I had to type slowly so some people could follow along
Trader Posted November 1, 2012 Author Posted November 1, 2012 No one will ever be the equal of the great Bryce Smith or Jim Kellie, that's for sure. Frankly the Bills along with the spelling of their names are not as important in my life as they used to be.
Trader Posted November 2, 2012 Author Posted November 2, 2012 Darius Rucker is a cool dude for a Dolphins fan. As far as Marcell Dareus goes ... he gets a pass for the entire season, in my opinion. If I lost a family member like that, I would be a complete mess. So taking what he's gone through on a personal level into account, along with being part of an antiquated defense being run by an incompetent coaching staff - I'd say if fans should lay off of anyone, it should be Dareus. Go Bills! So how does the extended berevement leave work? Is it just for Pro Athletes or do Air Traffic Controllers,, Crane operators, Bus Drivers, Airline Mechanics, Pilots, Homeland Security people, Navy Seals, and Middle Managers get cut slack too?
Dragonborn10 Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Watt looks like he is on roids. He will flame out in a year or so... And I think Mr. Rucker has nothing to prove...

DrDawkinstein Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) Dareus was, and still is, the correct pick there. Id rather be the Bills than the Jacksonville Jaguars who traded up to pick Blaine Gabbert at 10 and have JJ Watt go 11th. That will always be a "Could've Should've" for their fans. (If the Jags had fans) Edited November 18, 2012 by DrDareustein

bills44 Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 No one will ever be the equal of the great Bryce Smith or Jim Kellie, that's for sure. you forgot about Andrew Reed and Thurman Thompson.
Rico Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 Texans took a big gamble and got very lucky. No way would I go high-motor lunch pail at #11, let alone #3. I'm still very happy with the Dareus pick
Section242 Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 Wade is the best DC in the league. The game has passed Wanny by. If the Bills had at least average linebackers I think Dareus would get more recognition. Instead he'll probably have his 3rd DC in 3 seasons next year.
