Donte Stallworth anyone?

I wouldn't object to giving him a chance in training camp. It's not like he was a locker room cancer or anything. He just happened to make a mistake. He's paid the price, so he at least deserves another chance. Plus we need help at his position, so I don't see why we couldn't be the ones to give him that shot.

No he sucks.

All Speed, no hands.

even that would be an upgrade. We have jarrett who is all hands, no... everything else. Even if he's number 4 he's and upgrade.

I wouldn't penalize him for his mistake, apparently the victim was a little at fault too. Just like vick if he's paid his debt to society I say give him a break. Even though I really do not like vick.

I haven't seen Stallworth play, but if that's the case.. then no f'ing thanks. I want a receiver who can catch a ball. Want an example of a receiver with speed but horrible hands? here.

for every big play he might make, he fugs up 5 others.

Yea Stallworth paid the price, the price tag the family gave him. He wasn't sentenced to prison like Vick was, I don't want a dog killer on this team none the less a murderer. Money shouldn't be able to replace a persons life, or a dogs life at that. Vick served his time Stallworth wasn't sentenced so who got off easier??? Stallworth should be behind bars right now. On that note hell no to him coming here...Id prefer to pick up Dante Hall if we were going for a receiver with speed.

You do know the man was crossing MacArthur Causeway in the middle of the night right?

The drunk driver hit and killed the man, he didn't go to his home and shoot him.

That being said if his tag is cheap, and he try's out I have no issue, but if he's expecting to break the bank especially with his track record no thanks.

Yea but the difference for me is that Vick had the intention to torture and kill those animals. Stallworth, although negligent did not want to kill anybody I'm sure.

If you've ever looked or read the details of the case you'd realize that a completely somber person would've probably hit the man too because he walked out into traffic right in front of him. There was basically nothing Donte could've done. That's the reason he didn't get a tougher sentence, because there was basically nothing he could've done.

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
