NoSaint Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 @JaySkurski Brandon Beane on Marcell Dareus: "Obviously a guy with his contract status, you would hope that he would be a better leader than that." More Brandon Beane on Dareus: "Hopefully he learns from it and moves on and continues to be a Buffalo Bill." #Bills His 22m in dead money NEXT year. 38m if cut this offseason. The "continue to be a bill" line probably is not productive.
YoloinOhio Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 @jasonlacanfora Beane said this is a team-only matter. He'll talk with coach McDermott about further discipline after the game
Perry Turtle Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 You can't let the inmates run the asylum. Some say. Do you think these constant screw ups would be tolerated in belichicks system ? Belichick is more than happy to tolerate Gronkowski's insanity and distractions. He drafted and played a guy who was convicted for murder. He signed Randy Moss when no one in the league wanted anything to do with him. He signed LaGarrette Blount to his team twice, the 2nd after was suspended and then basically quit on the Steelers. Belichick as a disciplinarian is a myth. His only measurement of a player is how they perform on the field. McDermott is following in Dick Jauron's footsteps, not Belichick's.
NoSaint Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 I hear ya. I've historically liked and supported Dareus. I wan't him to dominate. But man it's a struggle with him lately. It is. I agree. I just don't know that this regime has proven themselves either though. It'll be an interesting situation to watch. It's possible they came in with a target on him given their process and his history and this wasn't incredibly serious from his end.

hondo in seattle Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 Jason La Canfora @JasonLaCanfora · 38s Bills new regime doing yeoman's work trying to change culture here. Loosey-goosey Rex Ryan days long over. Dareus long been an issue I see this all the time. Bad leaders suffer the bad consequences of their loosey-goosiness all the time. Good leaders are principled. They're fair. They're caring. But they're firm about their standards and unafraid to law down the law. I don't know what Dareus did but I'm glad we have a coach who's going to stand up for what he believes in and not let the inmates run the prison.
MAJBobby Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 (edited) Showed up to the Stadium at 5pm Every other player already on the field when he showed up Edited August 26, 2017 by MAJBobby
baskingridgebillsfan Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 Translation: he is a good player so I'll find a way to ditch him. But we aren't tanking. that makes zero sense. did you want them to ignore him being late. it is not a reg season game
KellyToughII Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 Showed up to the Stadium at 5pm Every other player already on the field when he showed up This kid doesn't get it. Make the moves needed and trade his ass already.
Helpmenow Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 Showed up to the Stadium at 5pm Every other player already on the field when he showed up Getting guaranteed cash
MAJBobby Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 This kid doesn't get it. Make the moves needed and trade his ass already. Maybe he didnt want to play in a fake game. Not justifying him, but if he is going to be selfish rather he do it now when these games mean nothing. You really have no out with him anyway until end of Next year. Such a horrible contract.
bobobonators Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 He's missed 9 games the last 2 seasons and has a total of 5.5 sacks in two seasons (23 games). BRUTAL.

Not justifying him, but if he is going to be selfish rather he do it now when these games mean nothing. You really have no out with him anyway until end of Next year. Such a horrible contract. Any idea why he was late, given that I'm sure they traveled together and were at a team hotel? Seems odd. Was it a barely missed the bus ala Hughes last year and Uber hit traffic? Or he totally MIA all day?

One would hope that after missing so many games last season for being an idiot, he would be amped up this season to redeem himself.
KellyToughII Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 If we trade him now its a 4.2 mill cap hit with 20 mill in dead cap. We can deal with that with moves, restructures, etc. I trade his stupid butt right now. I for one am sick of this guy already

Showed up at 5 and most of the team already on field stretching.
