I wonder if the NFL “randomly” picks Bryant for a drug test twice a month. Just like major league baseball targets hispanic, especially dominican, players for “random” drug tests. 

Could you show me some proof where MLB targets hispanic players specifically for drug tests? Or are you just spewing random nonsense?

I generally don't like steelers fans but their organization knows what the fug they are doing. Giving away Martavis should have been a red flag to any team trying to trade for him.

That’s pretty dumb if it sounds like he’s going to be suspended. If Josh Gordon is his comparison, you’d still give up a 2nd or 3rd for 600 yards and 1TD in the last 4 years? Bersin has 400 yards and 1TD the last 4 years.

Giving up a 2nd/3rd after these current rumors would be a terrible move.

I can’t believe you wasted your time giving an actual response, I was joking. 

I would send over a 7th for a bag full of those gorilla masks though, this fan base needs to appear tougher. Smarts isn’t this fan base thing so we’ll have to go with the next best

There is no doubt that PEDs and steroids are rampant in the baseball culture of the Dominican Republic as well as other Hispanic countries. Read up on what Tampa outfielder Carlos Gomez had to say about the topic recently. 

Also, i absolutely believe in baseball and football, older players and players coming off injury are targeted for “random” drug tests.

Assets? I recall one person saying our 1st since we’d pick a WR anyway and most said 2nd/3rd. So glad we didn’t do anything. 

agreed.  a first round pick is an important asset

      Can we all admit it now?

      That's also in an era when DBs could press for 10 yards, Qbs could be hit, QBs could have players land on them, incidental contact could be made with the head etc. You can't compare bryce to players like this. What you can do is say who's done less over their first 30 starts and had more resources dedicated to them and at that point you're looking at like Joey Harrington.  At least with Joey there weren't morons in the fan base falling over themselves to compare him to players from the first year of the NFL merger.

      Brees had a pro bowl year in year 3. Phillip Rivers was drafted anyways and Brees went off for two more years before his shoulder was completely torn up in the last game of the 2006 season.

      Fly Over: Would this happen or is this fanbase too far removed to care?

      By ElkinPanthersFan · Posted

      The last time this franchise was in this much despair pre Tepper, the rumors of the banner flyover were met by the front office. They quickly worked with the disgruntled fans to quell any potential negative event occurring at the Stadium or TV. The real question is do we even have enough fans that care to get together behind a movement like this again or is our fan base too far gone that we dont care to revolt like this? Personally, I still go to games each year no matter how terrible it is, but it has went from something I spent all week looking forward to almost as enjoyable as yearly physical. We can count the blunders this franchise has made in keeping Head Coaches, General Managers and players too long. (Rivera,Rhule, Hurney, Fitterrer). Team wise we've missed out on Herbert, we didnt trade Burns for 2 1st round picks, we reached by taking Bryce who would have most likely been were we were going to draft anyway, and extended players who constantly underperformed like Ian Thomas. Even when we are gifted a chance like 2 first for Burns that we shouldnt have paid premium, we fumbled a chance to really jump start the franchise. So this is more to everyone as a whole. How much of your Soul for this team is left? Is it still there that if there was a glimmer of hope, you'd come right back or has the futility of this team negated your love for football completely?
