Mel Kiper was one; he had Stout and Camarda ahead of Araiza. This breaks down more of the issues franchises had with him - hang time, yards per return, touchbacks and, of course, holding. https://www.sportingnews.com/uk/nfl/news/nfl-draft-matt-araiza-punt-god-bills/dgmyhjvtoiyxcwqqkdaajiez John Wawrow found two franchises out of five who knew about an incident at San Diego but didn’t know the details. Beane said in the press conference he’d spoke to double figure franchises, none of whom were aware.

Until the Titans throw a curveball and cut Stonehouse.

For this season, perhaps players would have Brady and Rodgers ahead of Josh as their QB. This is going to be unpopular, but remember he had a pretty average, at best, regular season last time round - it was only in the post season where he hit fantastic form. But, long term, Josh and Mahomes would be preferred because of their age (along with the likes of Burrow and Herbert).

Feel like I’m stuck on repeat - most mock drafts had him at third or fourth punter due to questions about his holding ability and hang time. He went where he was expected to.

😄 Very much after the Beane and McDermott era, though. Out of free agency I’d say Charlton is the best bet, but would still prefer Kern should the Titans cut him.

They would have probably preferred the Panthers game to be today, rather than Friday.

I presume injury hurt Charlton’s career - he seemed to do ok for the Panthers but has done very little since the back issue in October 2021.

He couldn’t be put on the exempt list for that reason. Think I’m right in saying he couldn’t be suspended or put on administrative leave because we do not have a good enough reason to do it - he has not yet been found guilty of anything.

I don’t think Moorman is seriously looking to make a comeback, to be honest.

I presume Graham was referring to the lawsuit, where it states Araiza admitted to having sex with her during the recorded phone call - albeit not in a direct quote?

Poor guy. Good to hear he is stable. Hopefully he recovers quickly with no lasting damage.

K-9's post was originally below Promo's reply. Now it has seemingly disappeared.

Apologies, that's right, it does. ETA - Think I'm finding it difficult to keep the statutory rape offence in mind as in the UK the age of consent is 16.

Yes, if I recall correctly from the lawsuit, the claim is that Arazia and the alleged victim had consensual sex outside and then he took her inside and joined in the gang rape with others.

But we know that? That has been the claim all along?

In the lawsuit for the civil case?

Thank you - so there may be a way we can keep Johnson without having him as part of the 53?

Should have noticed that! I fear for Duke Johnson, though think I would prefer to drop Stevenson to the practice squad.

Not so sure - surely that suggests she was incapcitated which implies she could not give consent? Though they'll have to rely on witnesses and the rape kit to get to the bottom of what happened. And that could be why the alleged victim's attorney actions are suggesting that Araiza is not to be issued criminal charges. If both parties agree they had consensual sex earlier in the evening, and there are no witnesses placing him in the room (which is what the defence attorney claims) then they would possibly struggle to acquire enough evidence to charge. I will add that the DA office obviously has all the evidence, and the above is piecing social media comments with the excellent post from an attorney made yesterday on here, breaking down the case. So I may be well off.

Releasing Howard would cost us more than $2.6m in dead money, and is $1.945m salary is fully guaranteed. I think he's staying.

Diontae Johnson has picked up a shoulder injury during Lions @ Steelers, and is sitting out the rest of the game.

Rumours on the Titans forum suggest he's happy to come here if he does get cut.

And that's why they made the move they did; they did not rate Haack and wanted to move on. But Beane could hardly turn around and say "We were happy to release Haack despite the other guy in his slot being implicated in a gang rape"

Thanks. To me, Kern seems the most obvious option for us unless a free agent really stands out.

Would Kern drop to us?
