Alan Branch Suspended?

Brown
Knighton
Kuhn
Valentine

fine

 

[BradyFTW!]

Time for Malcom Brown to step up. I'm optimistic that he and Knighton can hold down the fort, will be pleasantly surprised if Valentine can chip in a bit. Won't have the depth/rotation that we'd hoped for, but Branch can add that when he comes back.

His 2014 DUI was supposedly settled with a two game fine as opposed to any suspension, so it's probably something new but you never know for sure given the recent disciplinary decisions.

This would save a roster spot presumably as we hit the cut down dates?

 

[bbobbo]

are there any teams that haven't had a player suspended?

So one more suspension and we lose another 1st round pick. Even thought the fuhrer will not confiscate a pick from the Bills. Can't wait, Can't wait!

Can you expand on that?

 

[Wheelman]

Can you expand on that?

I thought someone said on here that the NYJFL* is going to start taking draft picks away from teams that have at least 3 players suspended?

I'm sure the Commissioner's statement will begin with:

"It's more probable than not that Alan Branch was at least generally aware of the inappropriate ..."
