Does not apply to PEDs but it looks like NFLPA played their recreational drug suspension card. https://twitter.com/ProFootballTalk/status/1235579426856775681

Ben (particularly asshat) Cutler (but in a good way) Mayfield Stafford (just the frat bro part) Leinart I'm obv forgetting some notable ones Regardless, Rivers is in the Dalton/Flacco/Eli group of goofy goobers IMO

I won't see them at least for a while because the whining arm flailing bullshit on the field makes me dislike the guy, and I figure that'll take at least a season of not seeing that lovely face pleading for a holding call.

So how long until the owners force an 18th game on the players because I bet it happens a lot sooner than the expiration of this new CBA.

Diva Cupcake posted:Does not apply to PEDs but it looks like NFLPA played their recreational drug suspension card. Any reason they can't still suspend them for "conduct detrimental to the team"? I feel like if the team or the NFL wants to suspend somebody they can do so at any time and without any reason whatsoever. I guess what I actually mean is will they stop testing for marijuana altogether or will they still test for it but then pretend to not suspend someone for the results?

They had to repay the players and FA's were telling the team to screw not to mention guys very publically saying they want out even after he was fired.

I feel like if the team or the NFL wants to suspend somebody they can do so at any time and without any reason whatsoever. conduct detrimental is subject to grievances, weed suspensions aren't. The player could just file a valid grievance and get their paycheck back and the team was without them for a game also I may be crazy but I don't think the NFL can suspend someone for conduct detrimental to the team, that's up to the teams. If Jared Goff rolls out of Rams practice and pops some weed gummies are they really going to bench and fine him for it?

I'll admit I don't know anything about the specifics of how/when players get suspended, it just seems like recently all the power has been with the team and league in regards to handling suspensions and not much recourse available to players. Sure you can appeal a suspension but then Goodell just says, "Nah, get hosed." So my question is still will they continue to test for marijuana or any other recreational drugs? And if so, why if not to use the results against the player?

Oh yeah I guess I totally forgot about other penalties besides suspensions. I still think it's dumb to even test for weed in places where it's legal now though.

At the very least I believe the new CBA limits testing to a two week window at the start of training camp, and thresholds are much higher. Meaning basically, they just need to abstain for a few weeks once a year and they can blaze on the rest of the year. It's still stupid but at least it almost becomes a non-issue.

Didn’t the Browns offer up their 1st last year and Bruce Allen turned it down? I still think he’ll fetch a 1st from someone.

Still, he's 32, wants all the money, has health issues, the tackle draft class seems strong and his relationship with the team seems unsalvageable.

They're not getting a 1st this year unless someone in the backend feels like paying him. A deep tackle class and renewed rumors that he wants a new contract took his trade value down hard. Late 1st at best more likely 2nd or even 3rd depending on how much Trent is looking for.

Dalton on the Pats intrigues me. - He takes to good coaching really well, which he'd get with Bill - He can be fragile, which is not something Bill has been known to nurture
