Patriots DT Alan Branch is being suspended four games for violating drug policy, sources tell ESPN. Tested positive for marijuana. Appealing

Things just keep getting better for the defense

On the dope, apparently...appealing

Whiskey Tango Uniform, over?

Did they use the "eye test" to test him?

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

Dope

Whelp. OK, rest up, big guy. Just don't chill out TOO much....

Seriously, what a dummy. Argh.

Well, arguably he COULD take the suspension now, and be back in time for the playoffs.

Alternately, he could appeal, and maybe hold off the suspension until next year.

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

What an idiot. Wasn't he suspended before? Just great. Some big games coming up

Probably. That's what they used to suspend Tom Brady.

I think Belichick is losing that locker room...

Obviously, the best for the team is to delay until next year, if that can be assured. The team understands how to deal with 4 games suspensions at the start of the year.

Oh, if he can push it to next year should definitely do that...who knows what a year would bring. But otherwise, just get it over with. Unless there's a way to sidestep the Denver game.

No he should not. It hurts his FA value next year big time.

Not based on this...guys smoke all the time, you just have to be careful about it. He doesn't want to be suspended 4 games.

I meant from the Pats standpoint.

 

[oldrover]

So who can we get to replace him? Is Adalius Thomas available?

They hate their coach so much that they're smoking weed during the season! Ay dios mio!

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

Can they bring anyone in? So they have Brown, valentine, who else?
