That is vastly inaccurate. 

Pretty sure it isn't though but it's hard to know what the fug is what

How does anyone make sense of that vague poo. I don't' even see where Ian Rappaport gets what he said from. I think the delineation is civil vs criminal

This post is top level scumbag douchery even coming from you.

I wasn't saying it was my opinion.  It's what I'm speculating is happening/will happen.  The NFL doesn't care about morals or ethics.  If the video of Ray Rice never came out, he would have played the rest of his career out like nothing ever happened.  The NFL only acted because they had to with the video being leaked.  Prior to that, they had already "dealt" with it and elected to essentially do nothing.  Same with the Zeke example, he honestly probably wouldn't be suspended if a video hadnt came out of him groping a woman.  Donte Stallworth killed a man while drunk driving and still came back and played in the NFL.  Chris Johnson is rumored to have had the guys who shot him and his associates assassinated as all part of a much bigger drug operation - he still played an entire career in the NFL.  Roethlisberger more than likely raped a woman and was allowed to play an entire career AND be a face of the NFL.  Pacman Jones had a lengthy rapsheet early on in his career and also was able to finish out his career.  The NFL doesn't care about character.  They care about money.  Period.  Owners don't care about character so long as it doesn't inhibit them from winning and making money.  Period.

And I was unaware I was a scumbag before, but nice to know.

Another CB, of course!  We are going to usher the in golden age of "double-dime".  You heard it here first...3 down linemen and 8 DBs.

2 straight off seasons dedicated to stacking this defense but still have more holes? Do they really need anymore young players to be great? Experienced players is needed more now and develop who you already have.

I'm not sure Robert Kraft's situation compares. His was with a willing participant. Albeit, a paid participant. But sex work shouldn't be illegal anyways.  

We don't know that she was willing.  A lot of women are forced into that work unwillingly.  I get what you're saying, but again, with money comes power, and those with power get to tell the stories.

The morality argument for any NFL team is laughable at best...

I don't want Watson anymore but if his lawyer makes that stuff go away he'll be back in the league, most likely. I'd much rather suffer thru more Sam and get a better draft pick than sign a guy who's an alleged predator to save the season when we shouldn't have had high hopes anyway, just would be a total dummy move ESPECIALLY when you're already getting bad press for roster mismanagement and people are questioning your competency as coaches of offense.

Well he’s probably asked people in the league office if they plan on placing Watson on the Exempt List assuming he’s traded…

Hmmm, not sure you know the entire story, the ethnic workers at that "spa" were supposedly human trafficed.   Again, not his fault, but he should not have put himself in that situation especially given his status.  Regardless if YOU think it should be legal or not, where it took place, it WAS illegal.  He should have went to Nevada if he wanted to get his freak on with 'immigrant spa workers' legally.  Then again, the arrogant bastard didn't think he's get caught either, until he did.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
