Revised Drug Policy = Frank Alexander Back?


DOMOMAN

Recommended Posts

The new policy does not loosen the stance on PEDs. 

 

From this statement he made you can assume it was related to PEDs

 

 "I recently learned that I tested positive for a substance that is banned by the NFL. The NFL policy is strict, and I have chosen to take responsibility,"

Hats off to Addison and Horton, and Gettlemen for drafting Ealy.  our pass rush is our bread and butter, and we have a lot of bread and butter.  Alexander could be released when he is activated--I am guessing, but he may not be better than the boys just mentioned.

I must admit I am very interested to see Alexander play after all the preseason hype. If he has improved he will be a beast and probably our starter if we loose Hardy.

If Frank does do well he could end up being our starter for years and it could mean bye bye Hardy.

Frank was not suspended for PED's.  It was for substance abuse.

If it was for PED, he would be back depending on when the test was according to this "One note on retroactive discipline here: Players who had a violation after the last game of the 2013 season arising from a first stimulant positive test will have suspensions immediately lifted and will enter into the substance abuse program."

However, from a recent article on ESPN, Frank Alexander is not on the list to be reinstated.  http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/11535705/five-nfl-players-reinstated-new-drug-policy

    • It shows how short the actual span of a NFL career actually is.  We get caught up with the few guys that play until 40-years old, but that's an extraordinary tiny fraction of the League.  What you may or may not have intentionally done there is show how we quickly move off guys like that but are stubbornly hanging onto Bryce.  His new running mate, Kenny Pickett, drafted just one year earlier is already on his 4th or 5th team.  Kenny isn't horrible, but he's not good enough to be a franchise QB.  Some franchises get it, chalk it up as a miss and move on.  Others double down on trying to make things work until the relationship completely deteriorates. *cough* Dolphins and Cardinals *cough*
    • Winner of 7 vs 8 seed game gets 7th seed. Loser of that game plays against winner of 9 vs 10 seed game. Winner of that game (loser of 7 vs 8 against winner of 9 vs 10) gets 8th seed. So in reality if you make it to the 7 vs 8 game, it’s win and in for your team. Lose that game and you get another shot at getting in. If you have to play the 9 vs 10 game, lose once you are gone. Win the first game as a 9 vs 10 competitor and you still have to win again to get in.
    • DJ Chark, Hayden Hurst, and Bradley Bozeman all started for the Carolina Panthers during Bryce Young’s rookie season. All 3 have announced retirement after two years.  Scott Fitterer was that bad.   And his #1 receiver Thielen also just retired
