TSOL Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 It's like buying a $160,000 Land Rover then selling it for $18,000 four years later because it needs a $7,500 catalytic converter. Heck, we've all been there before. Amirite?
MJS Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Very surprised any team was willing to take his monster contract. Multiple off the field issues, poor play for years now, he's always had motivation issues, etc. Â I thought we were stuck with him for at least one more season due to the dead cap hit, but I suppose this regime views that as a sunk cost and just wanted to move on.
Wayne Cubed Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Marcel goes out on high, pun intended. Â Gets last tackle of the game against Bucs!
YoloinOhio Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 @mikerodak The Bills will save $5.73 million off their 2017 salary cap and $2.375 million off their 2018 salary cap. 2019-21 years get wiped out.
K D Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 I'm not sure why they HAD to trade him this year. Aren't we on the hook for his contract this year either way? I'm no salary cap expert but how does trading him now vs in the offseason help?
YoloinOhio Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Â @spotrac The #Jaguars acquire Dareus w cap hits of $5.7M, $10.1M, $11.5M, $14.6M, & $14.65M. $7.35M of 2018 salary is GTD.
Guest K-GunJimKelly12 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 The only thing I'm concerned about is I don't think we have the cap room next season to re-sign Matthews, Gaines and Kyle Williams.
YoloinOhio Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Â @albertbreer As for the Bills, theyd been looking at unloading Marcel Dareus and his contract for some time. Another culture-related move by new regime.
WMDman Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 this board is craaazy, majority wanted 99 gone and now he is and y'all complain about it. Â of course they couldn't get much for him he hasn't produced in the past 3 years, hes older, on an awful contract and has suspension problems
MJS Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 @mikerodak The Bills will save $5.73 million off their 2017 salary cap and $2.375 million off their 2018 salary cap. 2019-21 years get wiped out. Not much, but better than having a player you don't want taking up a roster spot and distracting the other players with all his issues. Â Kyle Williams doesn't have to be a babysitter anymore. I bet he's happy.
Kirby Jackson Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Don't be an idiot. We still eat the dead cap for a friggin 6th rd pick. I'd much rather have him playing DT here than a 6th rd pick when we still have the cap hit. Â Guess you'd be happy with a 4th or 5th for Glenn too? This ^^Â I dont care if hes an idiot you should have just kept him through next year. $14M in dead cap space next year is absurd.
YoloinOhio Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Â @allbrightNFL Jags took on an impressively bad contract, for a good not great player.
stevestojan Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 So I guess Im the only one OK with this. The current management has given me no reason to judge their decisions. That said, for those saying ONLY A 6th??!! Do you really think we didnt shop him before that? Im confident there werent teams knocking down our door to give us a 2nd for this lazy !@#$.

Â ...that's not really that great considering we only get a 6th round pick. This is such a tough spot to be in for the Bills. It was lose-lose.
Guest K-GunJimKelly12 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 This is team is re-tooling. Come 2019, we will have a ridiculous amount of cap space with a ton of young players on the roster.
Bronxbomber21 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Didn't Buffalo trade a 7th for Wr Clay and we cut him this week ?? That's how bad this trade was
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 They should have gotten Lee back or at least a WR that we can use now. I dont care about getting rid of him but we didnt get anything
Kirby Jackson Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 The only thing I'm concerned about is I don't think we have the cap room next season to re-sign Matthews, Gaines and Kyle Williams.We have a ton of cap space next year.
