The question is what would a team be willing to give up for Dareus? Probably not much considering your talking about a player with questionable attitude, work ethic, drug suspensions, etc. So if you're trading him away for not much in return and on top of that you still have to absorb a ton of dead cap space over the next couple years, that's still a crappy deal for the Bills.
It's a really frustrating situation because there aren't any good scenarios except for Dareus changing his attitude, buying in, and really stepping up his play, but that feels pretty unlikely at this point.

Originally posted by Ed View PostThey might when you consider that all his prorated bonus money has to stay on the Bills books. If a team trades for Dareus, I believe his cap hit for next year would only be about $10 mil with about 7.5 of it guaranteed. After the 2018 season the new team would still have him under contract for another 3 seasons at lower cap hits then what the Bills would currently have to spend. And the new team would be able to cut him after 2018 without any real cap ramifications. It's still a pretty big contract that the new team would be taking on, but it would also be easy for them to get out of it.

Re: Dareus is being shopped & if not traded, will be cut this summer
Just cut his fat Alabama ass after this season and take the cap hit.
The cap will rise next year and we will have enough players on rookie contracts to balance it out.
Crap, next year we are loaded with early round draft picks.
Dareus, Glenn, Wood and K. Williams should NOT be on this team next year.
Let's move on.

Re: Dareus is being shopped & if not traded, will be cut this summer
Its pretty obvious McDermott likes guys who buy in and provide that extra effort, and for all his talent, Dareus isn't one of them. I wish he would figure it out bc hes very talented but his cap hit is just too high for a guy who doesn't play that much or that effectively.
