Yeah. Rex drafted him. Rex was well aware of his off field issues and re-signed him to a 100 million dollar contract anyways. Rex was well aware of his off field issues and demanded a stipulation in his contract that allows him to receive future guaranteed money if he is suspended. It is all Rex's fault.

The franchise will be a circus of dysfunction, chaos and a culture of losing until the Pegula's begin to identify that Russ Brandon and Doug Whaley are part of the larger issues surrounding the Buffalo Bills organization.

If this is true it is some of the most egregious contract language ever to concede to a player. But should be of no surprise to anyone when Ralph's puppets (Brandon, Whaley and Overdorf) still run the show at One Bills Drive.

When they make that article and talk about how they haven't made the playoffs in close to 20 years they should have a big ol' picture of Russ Brandon.

With all the news coming out recently Tyrod was pretty smart to take this contract. With the previous contract he didn't have the luxury of the Bills being bad this year and still getting paid. Now he doesn't have to worry about that outcome.

Whaley and Brandon are the key figures here that had complete information on Marcell. This is where I lay blame the most within the organization other than the idiot Marcell himself.

and this was all well known before Rex Ryan became head coach and Whaley gave him that monster extension. I put ZERO blame on Rex here with regards to the situation the Bills are in with Marcell.

They were just as bad with Doug Marrone with penalties as head coach. Part of the problem is the cast that Doug Whaley assembles too! This issue starts and stops with Doug Whaley.

Rex Ryan has NOTHING to do with Marcel Dareus. He was drafted by Whaley/Nix prior to Rex even being here and Marcells problems were evident and was resigned by Doug Whaley anyways prior to Rex's first full season as head coach. If any issue could be associated with Dareus it is with Doug Whaley, Jim Overdorf, Russ Brandon and Terry Pegula for putting these people in their respective positions to make these decisions.

Another red herring....

The President, GM and head contract negotiator of the Buffalo Bills are Ralph Wilson hires. What do you expect?

FWIW Field Yates Verified account ‏@FieldYates Field Yates Retweeted Adam Schefter FWIW: Dareus' contract does not have void language of guaranteed money tied to a substance abuse-related suspension.

Jerry Sullivan ‏@TBNSully 4h4 hours ago Bills' statement nails it by saying Dareus "put himself first." Much like the other $100 million defender no longer on the team Bravo Jerry!

This argument is nonsense and a red herring. Certain allergy medicine is also a banned substance per the NFL. If Marcel is dumb enough to put known, blatantly obvious banned substance in his body than there are NO excuses.

If anyone wants to get on that 5-11 train I called 4-5 months ago you are more than welcome.

Jerry Sullivan ‏@TBNSully And why I stand by my suggestion of two years ago that they cut him before handing him a $100 million contract.

Yup! Ralph was ALWAYS crying poor but he didn't do the easiest and most obvious thing to generate an extra revenue stream and that was selling the naming rights to the stadium! He would rather scare Bills fans into buying tickets and conning the city of Toronto in (not) getting a team.

Totally agree. I don't want the names Ralph, Wilson or Ralph Wilson in any of the new branding of the stadium.

If you were a die hard old school Bills Fan you would call it Rich Stadium especially if you went to games and was around that prime atmosphere (tailgating and watching football) in the 80's and early 90's when it was named that.

Things will only change when the owner is able to identify people to properly evaulate the franchise and player personnel. When Ralph's garbage still runs the show (Brandon and Whaley), the more things change around the Bills (ownership, coaches etc) the dysfunction to no surprise still stays the same!

Not hope. Wilson was just a terrible owner IMO. One of the worst NFL owners ever IMO. Also, Russ Brandon and Whaley being retained under the Pegulas shows me he fails to identify proper people to run this franchise just like Ralph. Ralph's stink still lives on and the Bills are just as poorly run with Pegula as they were with Ralph.

Trump has a MUCH better shot at winning the presidency than the Bills even sniffing a wild card birth!

I will refer to it with anything other than having Ralph Wilson in the name. The proper analogy with this would be Rogers Centre will always be the SkyDome and the Ralph/New Era will always be Rich Stadium.

Whaley is a top 5 GM. Pegula is one of the best owners in football. and Russ Brandon is a genius.

On to the CJ thing...hope not...Tyrod dat man.
