I've seen the video and I'm pretty sure this was a big wake up call for the young man, he made a mistake and lets see if he has learned from it. We would get a top notch young player without using a draft pick or trading for him, this is a move I'd make all day long imo. A mistake is adding numbers wrong, not kicking a woman.

She's a broke college kid who couldn't even buy a ride home! Someone like that shouldn't have been worth HIS time... Why did HE choose to follow her down the hallway, instead of shutting the door once she was out? This, plus the other incidents, tells me Hunt doesn't think before pulling the trigger.... Might work on the gridiron, but it's just a matter of time before it all goes left. Look, I'm not going to make excuses for their actions. They were both in the wrong and could have handled it better. But that's what alcohol does sometimes. Fortunately for them no one got seriously hurt so it's a teaching moment. What they decide to do with it will determine who actually learned from it. 20 minutes ago, apuszczalowski said: But he is good at playing a game, she is not That's the way of the world.

Doc Brown Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 What gives me pause about him are three possible reported acts of violence within a year as he obviously has a short fuse. It's likely to happen again and if there's a bidding war for him forget it. If you can sign him to a short term reasonable deal with a lot of incentives then I'm all for it.

Putting Hunt on our roster sets terrible example for the young men we're trying to develop. It says violence against women is OK if you're gifted enough to pull it off. I don't mind hard cases, or character issues, but I draw my line at physical violence against women. Until more men do the same, scenes like this and worse will continue to play out. The Bills, not you or me, are not developing men. Save that ish for the modified team you coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plano Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 After seeing how good the Chiefs backups played, I'm not so sure that Kareem Hunt is a world-beater with elite skills like everyone thought. He could be a product of a good offensive scheme. Then again, I could be wrong. We're not signing him, either way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in that every event involves women but it is the 2nd fight that is public knowledge and there are rumours of two other incidents too. I think you would have to be convinced it is a one off and I am not sure you could be. In light of the previous incident, I was particularly troubled by the one in question. Anytime you have to be restrained from being physically aggressive, it means you are no longer fully in control of your own behavior. For the most part (with clear exceptions), I don't believe anyone should be defined by what they do in a moment in time, as it doesn't necessarily represent who they truly are as a person. However, when it happens several times, or more, then I think it warrants cause for concern. I hope he gets another chance and proves these incidents were not truly representative of who he is. I just don't think I want my team to be the one to take that risk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't find the video particularly egregious. Charges were warranted yet not pursued, but it was a forgivable offense IMO. If Nagy wants him, the Bills should probably want him too. That would be cool but with one stipulation written into his contract that if any kind of domestic violence happens while in the teams employing of him that he will be suspended (along with pay) until proven guilty & if proven guilty at that time his entire contract is null & void & is immediately fired with no compensation .

Not sure what kind of language you'd specifically be able to put into a contract, but I'm sure there could be some kind of conduct clause to cover something like this.

These events happened outside the NFL, and to me are a matter for law enforcement to deal with as it sees fit. Thats fair, but if I get a DWI, My employer will fire me. Thats their policy and they can do whatever they want I voted no because I dont think it will happen. He will sign and will probably play pretty well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 This guy is an iceberg and the garbage he's being charged with is just the stuff that has happened in public and on tape that everyone can see. Willing to bet he's a POS in plenty of other situations and whoever signs him will find out soon enough. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same way a DV counselor would be precluded from future employment in that field should they be involved in such an incident. That's not what we're talking about here.

Thurman was elite just like Hunt is elite and Williams is a quality NFL back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if the police pulled you over for suspicion of drunk driving, then let you go without charging you? Would your employ still fire you? Because that’s what happened to Hunt. 22 hours ago, Plano said: After seeing how good the Chiefs backups played, I'm not so sure that Kareem Hunt is a world-beater with elite skills like everyone thought.

I’m a big believer that most RB can be easily replaced without much drop off, as the Rams proved with Todd Gurley, among countless other examples, but I thought the Chiefs looked like a much different team without Hunt. Probably the best back in the league this year... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
