yardbird? Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 And keep Talib. Not official yet on Ruud, but it's looking good for those of us that have suffered with his play for years. GM Mark Dominik commented that those looking for a big Buc presence in the free agent class will be disappointed, and said any activity will be to target starting-caliber players, and Paul Posluszny of Buffalo, Nick Barnett of Green Bay and Stephen Cooper of San Diego fit that bill..Nick Barnett should be top priority, we can't start rookie Mason Foster at a key position like MLB.Keeping Talib was never an issue.....dude is good.

I am sure the idea of getting rid of him after that whole off field incident was pondered... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure the idea of getting rid of him after that whole off field incident was pondered...Probably was, but until he's convicted of something, why not keep him? Everyone's waiting to see what action the warden Goodell takes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yardbird? Posted July 27, 2011 Author Share Posted July 27, 2011 Goodell blows...I'm no attorney, but considering Talib has a trial pending, can Goodell legally discipline him at this point? Could discipline represent the "power of suggestion" and possibly taint a jury? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could discipline represent the "power of suggestion" and possibly taint a jury?No Goodell is an outside source, if the jurors learned about it, it would be through the media and jurors can't be exposed to media coverage of the trial they're deliberating on.

The only alternative is to select a jury consisting of 90yr. olds that never watch football or open the sports page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GODell can try to act at that time.Semi related...I have to believe there was some discussion about him during the CBA talks, but I haven't heard it mentioned. Anyone know?
