No one has a problem with the way the Bills handled the situation and agree they had no choice but to move on. But he did make the team after answering questions prior to the draft in that pre-season game. It was only after doing so that the accuser/ her attorney went public with the allegations.

I told you before that Gilleon is hoping for a jury of people like you, who believed the allegations and that he was guilty from the outset, who don't care about the facts of the case. There is simply no other explanation for him to continue this charade with such a loser of a case. And if the judgment goes against Araiza, teams likely shy away because the court of public opinion will lead to a team that signed him prematurely getting "heat" as you came around to above.

Joke is like that as well. Plus he's senile.

So all that matters is that he was accused? That's it for him? Just because he's a punter?

No it's not irrelevant. He'll get his chance after the civil trial is over, maybe this year but at the latest next year.

The distraction...of being falsely accused and then cleared?

Kaep's SB years were long over. He was no longer a good QB but wanted to be paid like a top one. I have nothing in mind. Other people might. This isn't hard. Just wait until the civil trial is over. There is no rush to have to sign him. Yeah, he had no experience holding for FG attempts because he was also the K in college. He posted videos working on it and showed he could in that pre-season game. And he boomed an 82-yard punt, allaying concerns over snap-to-punt time. And you don't see the juice being worth the squeeze...for the Bills or any team? If you mean the Bills, they have Martin locked-up for the next 3 years so yes, I agree, that ship has sailed. However if I'm another team looking for a punter, I wait until the civil trial is over and sign him.

Who knows what the public was swayed by? But after the civil trial and Araiza is (still) in the clear, there's nothing more to be said or done. There's no need to rush into signing him. And unlike with Kaep, Araiza has shown promise and will cost the league minimum.

And I don't see the reason to complicate things for the rookie by having him learn more than 1 position, much less opposite to the side he played and dominated at in college. Maybe a move next year to the left side might be in the offing, but for now, KISS.

Bates is the fallback for Morse. And good thing that Edwards is being paid like a backup.

So I'll put you down for fat jeans.

Better than wearing fat jeans.

Which is why teams are waiting on the outcome of the civil trial. Again this has nothing to do with criminal or civil court, just the court of public opinion as you stated.

Lying or dementia, neither is good.

What are you saying then? You've admitted he's been cleared of wrongdoing and if there were anything implicating him it would have already been presented, so nothing will come out during the civil trial, right? Yet you wonder why he hasn't been signed and started talking about him being the 3rd punter taken. That suggests you think he's not worth even bringing into camp as competition, despite, again, answering many of the questions about him prior to the draft.

Russian. Collusion. BOO!

I'm surprised the NAACP hasn't declared all of the US racist...

Pretty much sums up the libs: if it sounds believable, believe it no matter what.

Yup. The lengths they've gone to excuse/protect him says it all.

Beats "he was the 3rd punter taken so he sucks" as the reason why he's not signed. Talk about heavy lifting.

The fact that Q Wallet put out that notice...

It's bizarre. There are so many other ambiguous things to make up, why lie about his height and weight, which are easily verifiable?

True. But that doesn't mean you should put, say, Penthouse magazine in a kid's library. Hmmm, let us guess...

You asked me why he hasn't been signed and the only explanation I could give was because the civil trial is still ongoing and maybe a team/teams think something could come out there. I have no doubt he's free and clear. And yes, he's just a punter. But last time I checked, all 32 teams use one and there aren't 32 good ones in the NFL, much less 50+ including camp legs, and he showed tons of promise last pre-season.

"Suddenly shaky?" LOL! I've been rock steady with my prediction that he would be exonerated ever since I heard she claimed to have told him she was 17. I just didn't know how much evidence there would be against her, to probably even sink her case against the other guys. No WEO, you're the only one who's shaky. No doubt you're holding out hope there's something against him that Gilleon has. But his case is a loser mostly because his client is one. He just has to keep up the charade. How long do you?
