26CornerBlitz Posted September 24, 2017 Share 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 ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Big-money Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus has one assisted tackle through two games. He'll miss Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos because of an ankle injury. And with all the changes made by the Bills' new regime, Dareus' future here seems anything but certain. Yet when I asked Bills coach Sean McDermott this week if he's feeling the urgency he wants from Dareus, McDermott's response was tepid. "At times. I'm going to be very honest about it -- at times. At other times, not really," McDermott told me. "This bus is moving and at the end of this year, we're going to have a pretty good feel for who's on the bus and who's not, and everyone knows that, I would hope. So, I would hope they've seen that from the moves we've made and the direction we're heading, the mindset we're embracing and the devoted mindset you need to have to win in this league. We're going in a certain direction for a certain reason, and we play and do things with a purpose. People that have that common purpose and want to share that common purpose, they'll be here."

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 24, 2017 Share 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!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ganesh Posted September 24, 2017 Share 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. If we are already not getting any production from Dareus and we ware still doing good, why will this become a huge need. I think Washington can step up.

Green Lightning Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Tough call. Trade him for a pick and there's another hole to fill, a big one. Right now he isn't doing jack. Got to let it ride the year I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paup 1995MVP Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 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.

Best Player Available Posted September 24, 2017 Share 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. I doubt even the two year major cap hits. Would stop Pegula, etc. from cutting "tokes" lazy lard butt. Now. Through two games a single assisted tackle? i suspect some highly motivated backup DTs can match that with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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!

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.

Chandler#81 Posted September 24, 2017 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hemma Posted September 24, 2017 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan in Chicago Posted September 24, 2017 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpsredemption Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 A waste of talent. Hope your next organization will find the tools necessary to motivate you.

BillsSbSoon Posted September 24, 2017 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billykaykay Posted September 24, 2017 Share 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.
