Bucs,Lions,Steelers,Ravens first four games....one rotation D.E already suspended and our starting D.E probably looking at four games also.Secondary who has never played together except for the upcoming preseason. Very important for this team to start off strong and not get behind the eight ball early. A rookie will have to start along with Allison and Horton. I am hoping that R.R. and S.M. will pull something together to compensate for this problem. Here we are worrying that the offense will be struggling early due to the OL and a whole new WR corps, while our true strength will be playing with one arm tied behind it's back.What do YOU think they need to do.

I don't see Hardy getting a suspension until after the jury trial. It's not entirely impossible we have him for 16 games let him walk and then whatever chump gets him will have him suspended some games next season.

From what I have been reading he won't get that jury trial until early 2015.....doesn't happen over night. He was convicted and the Commish will want to make a statement (along with Rice).....no way they are waiting that long.

Call me fuging nuts but I'm just gonna say next man up and score more points than the other team. They're professional athletes and they need to adjust quick.

This..

I don't know what to think about Hardy's status. That whole NC bench trial first vs trial by jury muddies the water in regards to suspensions and NFLPA definition of fair and equitable ( just my .02 which may be way off). I think Alexander will be missed but can be back filled. Will hold out full comment until I know Hardy's status and Ealy's progression.

I think the talent we have outside of Hardy and Alexander can mask some holes so I don't think all is lost.

The commish almost has to wait. If they suspend Hardy and a jury finds him innocent then Hardy can sue.

I'm not sure...you really think they'll send down a suspension before the new trial? If he's found not guilty by the jury then essentially they just punished a man who was ultimately not convicted of a crime.

I have no idea how that works with the NFL. Just feels like they would wait until the entire process is finished.

Intersting..even with a conviction that is still the case? I'm not a lawyer, but I can see if he was accused (with no conviction in a court of law) of him being able to sue for damages.Hope you are correct for the teams sake.

If Goodell suspends Hardy now, then Hardy is found innocent by a jury, Rosenhaus/Hardy will sue the living crap out of Goodell & the NFL.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious.

      We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
