It isn’t harsh at all. Nobody should want this idiot on a young team like this.

The fact that we can't negotiate a new deal makes me agree we should not give up a draft pick for him. The drug thing bothers me but not the malcontent crap. Nobody here knows the guy, opinions are generated by news that either the club or the players rep give. Neither is without suspicion. He has a limited time to make money and wants to maximize it. So he holds out. Never saw that coming from a professional athlete. I do know he would immediately be the best runner on the team, the best pass protecting back on the team and not only the best pass catching running back but one of the best pass catchers period on the team. He would improve the team immensely on the field. Ballard would be a fool not to look into this. Having said all of that, I come down on not giving up a draft pick for him.
