Real McClappy Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Give him some more time, we are paying out the A$$ either way we look at it. As Wayne said just let him be a backup if needed this year. I honestly have a feeling if he was benched a game or 2 it might spark the fire in his head.. I'm pretty sure he has never been a back up player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted October 4, 2017 Author Share Posted October 4, 2017 I wonder if Kyle has finally given up on trying to mentor him. It has to be exhausting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy in 4C Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I love how they are making him earn it. This is a complete culture change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangarang Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Dareus for any WR makes sense. Theres not a team in the world that will trade for that contract. Were probably going to cut him after the season over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 See my post above. Don't automatically assume he likes playing NFL football at this point in his life. I read your post and thought to myself, I don't like working at my job either! I bet 90% of adults would rather sit on their a$$ than have to get up and go to work every day... but your point is well-taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 There's just no reason to take the cap hit unless he's actively stirring up trouble or unrest in the locker room. Just let his contract play out and then let him go. He's still useful for spot duty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevewin Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 That thought came to my mind when I first heard read this thread title. I thought the same thing - not only his exhaustion with personally trying to motivate Dareus, but you know he must feel constant pressure from coaches/teammates to be the guy to get through to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Theres not a team in the world that will trade for that contract. Were probably going to cut him after the season over. The Bills would have to pay someone to take him, like the Texans did with Osweiler. It's just not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it probably pisses Kyle off though because he knows the talent is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved the pick and the way he played for us but clearly things arent working out anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannc Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 We all know this was a horrible deal by Whaley, but I'll go as far as to say it's quite possible the worst deal this franchise ever made. I mean can anybody think of a worse one given the circumstances? Yes. Drafting Dareus in the first place, with AJ Green and Julio Jones (among others) still on the board.

BobChalmers Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Trade him for an overpriced wide receiver. That would serve the Bills better. That really would be an amazing play if they can make it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobChalmers Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Heard them talking yesterday on ESPN about NE's troubles on defense and maybe they need to think about trading Jimmy Garoppolo would you trade him for Darius straight up? Assuming he agreed to an extension prior to making the deal. NE is maybe the one place that wouldn't be scared off by his salary and also the one place that may be able to straighten him out. I'm sure Gilmore could help him adapt! LOL - Bill Bellicheat could not possibly be stupid enough to take another overpriced bad attitude off OBD's hands, but wow that would be hilarious.

1st Ammendment NoMas Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 this is where the league needs to come in and the owners need to make a statement. In the NBA and NHL when you get cut, your contract is dead. You must live up to the money your are paid or get a contract that the market dictates. The NFL should follow suit and drop the guaranteed money bs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
