Re: Run Defense since Dareus Trade
Yeah, it's clear that even when Dareus was half-assing, he ate up blockers. Still a good trade though; you can't pass up a chance to dump that contract when it comes up."Miami played pretty damn good today and still got their ass kicked."

Tbh, I get the losing the contract side of things, what I don't get is the fact that the deal was done without a proper assessment of the consequences for the run D. Which have not been insignificant.

Re: Run Defense since Dareus Trade
Funny, Dareus was "dogging it" and the Bills reward him by making him the only player on the team at that time that will BE GOING TO THE PLAYOFFS! He got to be laughing his ass off. "They really showed me."

If we traded Dareus because we are rebuilding, it makes no sense to give up assets for a WR receiver now, who won't be under contract in 14 months. And you don't even know who his QB will be until then.
Those moves are not coherent with each other.
If the move to get KB was for a playoff push this year, then Dares should still be here too.
If we are rebuilding then they shouldn't have given away draft picks for a short term receiver.

17 carries for 29 yards (1.7 ypc) against Cin
30 carrier for 87 yards (2.9 ypc) against the Chargers.
Looks like when they dumped Lynch on Seattle.
