oldmanfan Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Yes good idea - let's keep shedding star players and using draft picks to replace them. Then if and when those draftees become good players, we can turn on them and replace them, too! What could go wrong? Dareus is not performing like a star player. That's the point.
Mark Vader Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) We can draft Maurice Hurst #73 from Michigan to replace him. The Wolverines D this year is lights out. As for Marcel, sure someone will pick him up but he will be the same player wherever he ends up. He is always out of shape and plays soft. Not worth big money anywhere he goes. I think they will stick with Marcel for the remainder of the season. After that, he's gone, despite the big cap hit. Maybe Kyle can be convinced to stay one more season. Then the Bills will sign Star Lotuleilei, then draft someone like Christian Wilkins or Maurice Hurst. Edited September 24, 2017 by Mark Vader
Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 @AroundTheNFL Bills coach Sean McDermott: 'At times' we see urgency needed from Marcell Dareus, @TomPelissero writes: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000849593/article/sean-mcdermott-at-times-we-see-urgency-needed-from-dareus Um yep,
Chandler#81 Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Wasted talent. If Sammy was jettisoned for not fitting McBeane's player profile, then I'm convinced Dareus will be gone after the season and we eat the cap hit.
nucci Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Don't think you're gonna see much urgency from Dareus any time soon
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Don't think you're gonna see much urgency from Dareus any time soon ....this guy makes a lousy stool sample.................
hemma Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 If he gets nailed again for some drug variant, I believe he gets suspended for 10 games. Would that reduce our cap hit if we cut him as soon as he gets suspended - or no effect? The cap crap is a lot confusing to me.
Fan in Chicago Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) Its only a matter of time at this point. DT is going to be a huge need once Dareus gets cut and Kyle retires.Dareus has reached the end of the rope. He has used up all excuses. His contract is the only reason he is here.To your point, I think KW plays out 2018 and then retires. MD likely cut/traded (!!) Next year and Bills eat dead money. Next draft will be interesting due to some of these uncontrollable circumstances and self inflicted wounds (Watkins, Darby) Edited September 24, 2017 by Fan in Chicago
Jpsredemption Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 A waste of talent. Hope your next organization will find the tools necessary to motivate you. Disgusting that this clown would piss on the Bills when they handed him the contract they did, misguided or not.
BillsSbSoon Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) Ive about had enough of him. Its always something. He can never play through an injury yet denvers Lt was on a cart last week and is gutting it out today. Tbh i dont think dareus even wants to be here anymore either. I expect him to keep pressing mcds buttons in small ways the rest of the year to force his way out. He knows that even if hes released, somebody is going to pay him Edited September 24, 2017 by BillsSbSoon
billykaykay Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Mr Big Puff don't care. He gets his money either way! Thanks Whaley One way or another, we will be paying him. That being the case, why not trade him & pick up his salary. We are still paying him, but now have either a player received in the trade or a draft pick.
Scott7975 Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 mcderm isn't lovin some MD99. But are there any good or reasonable options? I imagine it's a horrible cap hit, tough to trade a guy you've called out for effort, even if the contact was reasonable. So what can one do? Rip the band aid off, cut him for nada and suck up the cap hit. You know he's signing immediately after clearing waivers!! He's a vet there are no waivers for him. Yes good idea - let's keep shedding star players and using draft picks to replace them. Then if and when those draftees become good players, we can turn on them and replace them, too! What could go wrong? They aren't good players if they collect their check and only give half effort.

Bill_with_it Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 If he's not doing jack there's already a hole. And getting rid of him wouldn't make the hole deeper.Bingo.
Straight Hucklebuck Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Its only a matter of time at this point. DT is going to be a huge need once Dareus gets cut and Kyle retires. Harping on it once again... 2006 - McCargo and Williams 2007 - No DT 2007 - No DT 2008 - No DT 2009 - No DT 2010 - Troup, Carrington 2011 - Dareus, Jasper 2012 - No DT 2013 - No DT 2014 - No DT 2015 - No DT 2016 - Washington 2017 - No DT No DT selected in 9 of the past 14 drafts.
Fadingpain Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) Mr Big Puff don't care. He gets his money either way! Thanks Whaley You got that right! What a P.O.S. this guy is! Still can't get over what this moron did to that F430! Criminal! Edited September 24, 2017 by Fadingpain
JerseyBills Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Its only a matter of time at this point. DT is going to be a huge need once Dareus gets cut and Kyle retires.Adolphus can play.We can easily grab one in FA and draft. Not many holes on that D
John from Riverside Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 no way we cut him with that kind of cap hit...... I think people need to realize the bills D pretty good......and people would not be complaining about Marcel as much if our O was holding up its end in these games
Bangarang Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Adolphus can play. We can easily grab one in FA and draft. Not many holes on that D Havent seen much from Adolphus that makes me think hes anything more than depth. I like Worthy a lot more but his concussion seems to be a real issue.
