Schefter: Michael Floyd "expected to face a multigame suspension from the NFL" in the 2017 season

[Bradyking12]

Goodell doesn't like anyone who can drink him under the table. Floyd's going to get suspended 4 to 6 games. But that will backfire. How nice will it be to have a receiver of his caliber show up with fresh legs halfway through 2017?

Anyone from AZ? From what I understand their DUI always are tough.

I'm assuming he will fall under the Extreme DUI statute.

Severe stuff and not to be taken lightly but 4 games for a 1st offense?

Why? So far there's nothing on his BAC.

I'm anticipating him having a very high BAC

Police report: Floyd changed story during arrest

Floyd refused the breath test, but accepted the blood test.

Thats strange, Why not decline both?

I have no idea what happened in this case, but they can get a warrant to force a blood test. Maybe that happened here.

EDIT: Someone gave the AZ State Implied Consent Laws, which give a far better explanation than I did, so that seems to explain what happened.

I'm driving a car right now that was given to me by my BIL and when he had it he fell asleep at a stop sign and coasted through it. He ended up running into a pole on the other side of the intersection. He was stone cold sober. My point is that it is very easy to fall asleep when you are tired. My BIL fell asleep at a stop sign where there is no waiting time as opposed to a street light where you have to sit and wait momentarily. I know a few people that have fallen asleep while driving and I often get drowzy in fact while driving and I don't drink and drive at all.

Obviously I am not saying that Floyd wasn't drinking at all, but I am saying is that we can't assume that he had a "pretty high" BAC. He may have had a very high BAC, but he may also have just been exhausted. I don't trust the NFL's judgement for anything.

I have called asleep at a stop light after a 36hour shift in my younger days. If it were not for the honking cars to wake me, it could have been a patrolling officer. I agree with SuperStang83.

Can't wait to see him catch a few TD passes in the postseason

Very little chance he is here next year. This is a rental for depth.

Edelman, Floyd, Mitchell, Hogan and Amendola might be the best receiving corps in Brady's tenure. And that could be the lineup in the playoffs this year. Wow.

Is Floyd active today?

No.

As soon as he became a Patriot, you knew it was coming. If he had joined the Jets, you can bet on Goodell's candyass that no suspension or penalty of any kind would have been forthcoming.
