NoSaint Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) Not that surprised from what I had heard about him. Though he avoided arrest or headlines for a bit the rumors I was getting involved the same nonsense he was getting into here. Shipping him out was the right choice. Kid will be lucky if he ever gets his head on straight - definitely has drug/alcohol issues, maturity issues and too much money for his own good from what I gather. It's a shame as he has a lot of potential on and off the field. Edited July 17, 2012 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Vader Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Then we can count on Phil being a crappy psychologist ... lol  As for the subject at hand, this is the main reason why we got rid of Lynch.  People thought it was foolish of us to trade Lynch, and while it's true that he is a good RB, he was too much of a problem off the field.

Â It was a misdemeanor charge for domestic, which could simply mean a loud argument that someone called the police for, and they were forced to bring someone in. If it were a felony charge or multiple charges, perhaps I'd feel different. I've seen plenty of domestic charges like this thrown out pretty quickly. Â Lynch's BAC was over the legal limit, pretty open/shut case for him.... again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â This was just a matter of time Hated the Spiller pick then, hate it now ..but had nothing to do with Lynch. I am of the ilk that hates taking a RB that high no matter what..especially so in the Bills situation of a lack of talent across the board a couple years ago. Â Now for Lynch, surprised he consented to the chemical test..once you fail that awful tough to overcome . All I could find was suspicion of DUI, so will wait for the results , but what a dumb ass.

Dragonborn10 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Possibly... Seattle is a stone's throw from the border... Can you throw a stone 135 miles? Â Not paying for a $50 cab ride may have just cost him several million dollars. Would this be his third strike? Godell is going to hammer him. If this is not his third strike I would still bet 8 game suspension given his prior history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fansince88 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Yeah but he did have that one good run in the playoffs two years ago.....Was never happier to see the Bills trade a player myself. That said I am not happy to see the man continue to make these bad decisions. As I have said before about others that make choices like this. They are all just miss-guided. It is truly sad.

todd Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 So all you people who didn't think we should have traded him, what do you say now? Even after being reminded that he was one strike away from a long suspension? Here you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha..your right. Seems it was free and provided by the NFL, but the players were nervous if they used it, it would get back to the teams and hurt them. So, the NFLPA took over, hired a new company, never told the players about it, so they let the service lapse  http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/nflpa-nfl-let-safe-rides-program-lapse-players-141542535--nfl.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
