stirs 7,126 Report post Posted February 24, 2013 That means we can definitely write off one of the top 3 DT's, since now there only 2 top DT's. Means also that the 3 OT's will be gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rayzor 13,170 Report post Posted February 24, 2013 yikes. not cool for him. i mean this isn't just something that could cost him a couple million...this is something that could cost him a career. good thing for him is that they found it at all. if it wasn't for this process, it could have gone unnoticed and may have been something to cause him serious troubles down the road. for us it just means that less talent will fall to us, but we'll still have a stud with the first pick.
