    Bills Should Offer Darius To Dallas

    They lost their NG to retirement this week and are hurting on D.

    We know Jerry Jones is very impulsive. I realize the conversation may be brief but Bills should try. Get another pick for next year and continue the long term build while dumping his salary. Don't know if it even fits.

    Yeah. For three of their offensive linemen. Make it happen.

      I’d ask for a first and settle for a third.

      I’d shop him to the league for that’s price.

      Somebody would bite

        I give you credit. This is one trade idea that makes sense. Do it.

          Do we have the cap room to eat his dead cap if we moved him?

            Why do we eat cap if he's traded? His contract goes with him.

              I think we'd have to eat all of his signing bonus

                Yes, guaranteed money. We've paid something like 10.9 out of something like 27 million we're on the hook for before 2019. Like if we trade him this year, we still pay his full yearly salary. Sad thing is, Night Train is right anyway. More sad thing is it would probably be conditional, he'd get suspended again and we'd end up with a 6th. Saddest thing is that we might still get better production out of the 6th while paying the money anyway.

                  Who hated us so much to draw that asinine contract up?

                    Dareus is a pro bowl first round pick, we’d get a first & get killed on his salary bonus. Maybe Dareus kneels & we can fire him.

                      Only if we throw in Peterman & up the demand to Dak Prescott and Dez Bryant.

                        I'd be grateful just to take their Right Tackle.

                          It would be 37.7 million in dead money this year to trade him. When you figure in what you save from not paying his salary it would be about a net loss of 21.5 million. Next year would be 21.5 million in dead money with a net loss of 5 million. As soon as we can afford to dump him we will, until then we are stuck with him and Marcell knows that and he's playing like it

                            You could have had him for a 7th rounder a few years ago. Whaley thought a 7th was too much to risk on a disgruntle player.

                              Even if some team was dumb enough to trade for Dareus, we’d have to throw in a pick. Doesn’t it remind you of when Houston traded Osweiler to Cleveland?
