DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 @TheBillsWire #Bills GM Brandon Beane "doesn't know" if Marcell Dareus is on board http://billswire.usatoday.com/2017/08/31/buffalo-bills-brandon-beane-on-if-marcell-dareus-has-bought-in-i-dont-know/ I don't believe he is. this new regime is going to rid all of whaley remnants and it's more about that then his actions. how many HC/DC's has he been through now? regardless of player the writing has been on the wall with this franchise. spinning their wheels every two or three years. he'll go on to a contender, meanwhile the bills will go through yet another rebuild.

oldmanfan Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I don't think they get rid of players for the sake of getting rid of players. I don't understand why, when you have a guy that is consistently late to meetings and that has been suspended for violating league rules, it gets twisted around as a criticism of the front office. God forbid the coach and GM expect him to follow rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 *confetti* @john_wawrow #Bills Marcell Dareus is present and accounted for. @joebuscaglia #Bills DL Marcell Dareus was just out here warming up, and then had a conference with both DL coach Mike Waufle and the training staff.

3rdand12 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I have little hope for him and his future for the Bills.But i would push everydman button I could to kick start his rear.

LabattBlue Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 There is a certain amount of knucklehead-itis that every HC has to deal with, and obviously "star" players are given more leeway, but Dareus has crossed the line on multiple occasions, and just doesn't care. I guess 10's of millions of dollars will do that do some players. Other players deal with the riches without ANY off the field issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching since 1964 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I wonder how much knowing for awhile that it may come to a point where MD may have to be released factored into the FO not signing Gilmore and trading Sammy, since letting MD go would put a stranglehold on their cap for several years.

Punching Bag Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/marcell-dareus-7718/ Simple way: he retires and pays back bonus and Bills still have rights Then he unretires and Bills trade his rights.

None. They traded Sammy because they didn't want him looking at what DeAndre Hopkins (and soon OBJ) got and start asking for similar money. And they didn't feel Gilmore was worth it. Simple way: he retires and pays back bonus and Bills still have rights Then he unretires and Bills trade his rights. What are the odds you think Marcell pays back his signing bonus?

We are at a crossroads and I could see it going either way. If he responds, I'm all in. ALL IN, because he can make a HUGE difference. We just need the player to be all in too. Time will tell.

We just need the player to be all in too. Time will tell. To me, as long as he doesn't get suspended and takes care of his play on the field, I really don't care if he shows up late. I see why they're doing what they're doing, but at some point it becomes counterproductive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see why they're doing what they're doing, but at some point it becomes counterproductive. If he shows up late and breaks team rules he will be gone. That will not be tolerated, and I understand that thinking. Could he get a little slack is he's a first ballot HOF guy? Sure. But you have to show up in shape and dominate first, and he's not doing that part yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, as long as he's producing on the field, I give him slack. You're stuck with him and it's doubtful anyone is looking at him and saying "I should do that" when you have a guy like McCoy who is on a first ballot HOF path who takes care of his ****.

Just pray he doesn't get suspended again and move on when it's feasible. I'll opt for NOT moving on if he grows up and produces. How long did it take Bruce to decide he wanted to be great? At the current rate, this &%$* won't fly once it's feasible to move on. How much does he grow and learn to care before that point in time? Fill me in fellows, sorry I must have missed or not old enough, I'm going to say just missed it lol There's a Bill Murray/Richard Dreyfus movie titled What About Bob.
