Let's say the outcome of the Hernandez trial ends in a not guilty verdict should we try to re sign him? He's still very young and has years of football left in him. We know the guy is extremely talented and was once considered part of the best TE duo in the league. He might learn not to be such a head case after this ordeal and settle down and let his playing do the talking. I see him as still being an elite TE if he is exonerated and IMO might be worthy of a second chance here.
Nobody will want to take this question seriously but I don't mind taking a crack at it.
From everything I've read, the Aaron Hernandez case is largely built on circumstantial evidence, the minority of it being strong, the majority of it being weak. The prosecution has also, so far, done a really crappy job. It's possible the state won't have enough to convinct him of murder, but I only say that based on what few media reports I've read, and I know better than to take the media seriously about anything.
Whether it be Weapons of Mass Destruction, or Deflated Balls, the media is just always full of absolute **** in this country.
That said, it's pretty hard to say that Aaron Hernandez is a good person, no matter what the final verdict is regarding the murder of Odin Lloyd. Video tape apparently shows him going somewhere with 4 people, and returning with 3. The guy is just guilty. He might not have pulled the trigger, but he surely didn't just "lose someone." It's not like any 911 calls were made by Aaron Hernandez reporting that his friends just shot a guy. Something obviously went down.
That man is not a good person, and no matter what his lawyers get him off the hook for (if anything), his NFL career is absolutely over.
