BillsFan4 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Wow. Crazy. He’s going to be out of the NFL completely very soon, if he’s not already. Sad. One day he’s going to look back with an awful lot of regret. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bermuda Triangle Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I bet the same people who said that this was a solid, low-risk move for the Dolphins would have mocked the Bills for doing the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloRebound Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 But I thought Flores was gonna magically turn the kid around because he went to the same high school 20 years apart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know that I did some really dumb **** I didn’t even think twice about when I was his age, but I would change it in a heartbeat looking back now. anyway.... I just meant it’s sad to see someone throwing his life away, for whatever reason. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude is an idiot and one of the biggest busts ever but this is no risk. The Fins just to to him and saw we don’t give a crap where you were drafted. You are basically a 7th rounder. You don’t play well or do anything dumb, you are gone and will have the rest of your life to party because you will be done in the nfl. love this type of moves provided the guy is not an abuser or killed someone. Sometimes it takes get traded for a bag of rocks to wake you up. The trade didn't work. Lol On 3/10/2021 at 10:48 AM, Royale with Cheese said: The guy will be out of football in 2 years.

This was one of the more amusing takes I read on the trade when it occurred a few weeks ago. Thanks for the reminder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloRebound Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 That’s a $5m dead cap hit for a team that only had $11m in cap space. Awful trade. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Sad an entirely predictable. His NFL career is over, now the question is whether he'll get his life in order. Good luck to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiltonWaddams Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I cannot imagine being given this opportunity and blowing it so badly. I dreamt of playing in the NFL and took every chance to improve and be coached so seriously. I was not naturally gifted like him, so it drives me nuts to see talent wasted due to stupid decisions and a lack of effort and respect. The kid obviously needs help. 2 minutes ago, BuffaloRebound said: That’s a $5m dead cap hit for a team that only had $11m in cap space. Awful trade. I disagree.

That is the truth, opportunities on that scale don’t happen very often, I too have made a poor choice or two as a young adult, but never to the tune of millions of dollars especially after getting a second chance at said millions of dollars, sadly some of our fellow Americans never get it, as it were. Sounds a lot like to much alcohol and drugs over to long a period of time, it causes changes in the human brain, and not for the good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloRebound Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 As a 1st rounder, his entire contract was guaranteed. So if he somehow gets it together and gets another chance in the next 3 years, he’ll unbelievably make more money than he would’ve if he played out his rookie contract the next 3 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if he somehow gets signed by another team (doubtful), he'll be signed for the minimum and likely fail to make a roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor would they. Similar to a guy like Henderson in our past- you didn’t change your board in assuming he’d reach his potential but if he can contribute some viable snaps cheap it’s like found money at the bottom of your 53.
