His salary plus game bonuses equal $8.3M, I believe the new team would be on the hook for half of that since it's midseason. I also believe trading him would be a net positive for the Bengals cap. I already answered but yes. We would be on the hook for 4.5 million in dead money but would free 6 million (prorated out) in salary for the year so a net gain. My guess would be anyone trading for him would be looking at him as a one-year rental and potentially a restructure next year if he is decent.

He played more snaps in the earlier games, and sucked. He is putting zero effort into this year. This is ALL on him no matter how much people want to put it on the coaches. If he put forth some effort, he would still be atop the depth chart. I am not saying Dunlap is playing great. I am saying it is comical that people are acting like the coaches or other players are doing any better. Dunlap has a long solid history in the NFL. he has a good resume and has earned some respect. Zac Taylor and his staff are a bunch of clowns who have never done anything, and right now they are on a run for one of the worst records in NFL coaching history. I realize it can take time to turn a team around, but in two years we have shown zero progress. Even if we were not a playoff contender this year we should have shown some improvement over last season.

The anti-bullying guy bullied the team into trading him. Coolio.
Everything in this post is my fault.

Reader brought it to stop the run, injured and gone for the season Linebacker corp- Younger, faster, playing better and is improving with each game Defensive Backfield- IMO Better with the addition of Alexander. Waynes is still an unknown, but his pedigree says he will also be an improvement Offensive Line- Bad when he got here, still bad, but Williams is a bright spot. QB- Way Better!!! Running Backs- Mixon and Bernard signed to long term deals - Improvement TE's- Uzomah is out for season, so injury regression WR's- Higgins will be a star in this league for a long time. AJ is AJ, playing his way back... Boyd plays like a man with his hair on fire. Improvement It's not happening overnight, but like I said, building for the future. A couple of more hits on the OLine and Dline, and this team is a contender. Dunlap is just mad he's not going to be a part of it and knows it.

Lol
Once again the Bugles are DOING IT WRONG You work out a trade BEFORE you announce anything like this, or you just release him and avoid this drama. They run a Football team so hilariously; it's like every decision is calculated to be the wrong one.

So we should keep him playing even if he can't/doesn't give a shit about performing this season because he used to be good ? OK :andy:

The coaching staff decided to play Sam Hubbard and Carl Lawson over Dunlap because both were playing better than him. Dunlap threw a hissy fit and and was a problem so he has received less and less snaps each week until we are here.... Dunlap is the issue here not the coaching staff.

The results of the team are what they are, but not sure how one can use that as any justification for Dunlap's actions or this upcoming move. What Dunlap has done the last few weeks is Antonio Brown levels of self-destructive behavior. |
