He also wrote a clause in the contract that he could opt out at anytime and still make all his money. What is it with you guys paying for players and coaches and go aren’t even there anymore. So nice try distorting the facts again. Bro y’all traded an all pro DT for a sixth rounder. For reference the Jets got a second and a wr for Sheldon Richardson who is on the last year of his contract and has less sacks than Dareus had in less games last season. How’s that for intelligent informed thoughts for you lol. 

Don’t comes to a jags board spreading “knowledge” or “cautionary tales” of how y’all couldn’t get an all pro player to produce after y’all changed the defense and his role in said defense and now wonder why he isn’t productive anymore. That’s football 101. That’s literally like putting JJ Watt at nose tackle and wondering why he can get 20 sacks again. Y’all screwed up. That’s all it is. Y’all mismanaged a high end player and couldn’t get max minimum value for him. Oh and by the way, y’all are still paying 10 million this year for him and 14 million for him next year? Y’all are carrying 24 million of dead cap over 2 years for a player not even on your roster and only got a 6th out of it. 

Yep sounds like a good ole fleecing to me lol. Now you can try and refute any point that was brought up with out dodging any point, resorting to name calling and shallow digs. Otherwise you look like the blind homer looking to “educate” the silly southern hicks. I guess the city slicker is all knowing. We clearly don’t know football. Der wees justa one horse town...

Good God man... you and your 'facts'...
What ACTUALLY happened, is the team was sold. He had an uncertain future.
This wasn't a surprise, and a lot of people didn't know what would happen. It was more an escape clause incase the team moved.
His agent decided to pull a fast one used this clause to make his client more $$. He could get outand get paid, BUT he also had bad info in that the Jets REALLY wanted him and if he opted out he would be a shoe in for the Jets job. He opted out for his $$ and then had a poor interview. 
Woody started talking to people in the Bills organization and realized if all these people had such terrible things to say about him AS WELL AS he was that willing to jump ship... maybe he should steer clear.
Thus, he overplayed his hand and ended up as an ast in JAX.
Qb situation is totally different and he didn't want ej...but Whaley did. They got Orton as insurance and ej was benched after a few games. Nothing to do w him leaving etc.
So, although I appreciate your revisionist history,  stick with revising your teams and heed my previous advice.
If you want a good laugh, Google why he's called saint doug!!
It'll also be good practice so going forward you can fact check your nonsense so you don't look so silly when you write this crap in public for all to see.
That explains all his issues here. Hopefully if mellowed him out a bit and he learned from his mistakes.

I see you completely failed to speak on the comparison trade of Sheldon Richardson on the last year of his deal for a second and a wr, not getting maximum value, changing the scheme and still footing the bill through next year...

Here are some articles discussing my point as to why Doug left:

"While it’s been reported that Doug Marrone opted out of his contract with the Buffalo Bills due to his objection to the trade the club made for wide receiver Sammy Watkins, in all likelihood it has more to do with his lack of faith in quarterback EJ Manuel."

https://fansided.com/2015/01/08/doug-mar...ej-manuel/

"Last year, it took Doug Marrone four games to realize that EJ Manuel was not a quality NFL starter. There was some backlash at Buffalo's former head coach but behind Kyle Orton and a stout defense, the Buffalo Bills finished with a winning record for the first time since 2004."

"[font=Aleo, serif]Marrone[font=Aleo, serif] spoke to the Los Angeles media Wednesday ahead of the Jaguars’ Week 6 clash with the Rams and said that he wasn’t thrilled with Buffalo’s choice to draft Watkins.[/font]

“It wasn’t the player for me,” Marrone said on a conference call with L.A. media. “[/font]

[font=Aleo, serif]http://billswire.usatoday.com/2017/10/11/doug-marrone-sammy-watkins-bills-rams-jaguars/[/font]

It appears it was either due to the ridiculous trade for Watkins but most likely he left because he was not solid on EJ Manuel. He had a clause in his contract to leave and when he didn't like the direction of the team, he left. 

The Jets stuff may have been a contributing factor but it appears the reason he left was the poor decision by the front office to draft either one of these players or possibly both. 

As you were saying...
