Talib suspended FOUR games...

[NanoBuc]

This could actually be a good thing. A five week rest will ensure that he won't kill his hamstring in week 10. We might actually have him in week 16 now.

[Hillside]

Synthetic cocaine, basically.

so it recreational and not performance enhancing..He probably just cost himself millions in his contract year.  Can't see anyone giving him a $40 mil  or more contract like him could have earned.

Eric Wright $37.5 million

[Freeman 5]

This is without any doubt in my mind a dumb suspension. Felt that way when Haden got it.

Unfortunately it is a legit issue.  It's a big fraud issue for insurance companies, especially medicare/caid. 

On the plus side, at least this week it shouldn't matter if he's out.

I really don't understand why adderall is considered a PED. I'm subscribed on the maximum legal dosage per day, and I don't see how it would give you an advantage on the field. It helps with focus, concentrate. Like reading a book, studying for finals, etc. Dumb dumb. He'll get the axe soon.

[MUSCLE_HAMSTER]

Aderall?


Really?

Thats silly

[lyronmewis]

At least Biggers is back now, and I mean he's not great or anything, but he's a step above the other guys in being able to cover.

CB is definitely #1 need in the draft now. Talib won't be back.

"Around the beginning of training camp, I made a mistake by taking an Adderall pill without a prescription," the statement read. "This is especially regrettable because, for the past several months, with Coach Schiano's help, I've worked very hard to improve myself -- professionally and personally -- as a player and a man. I am truly sorry to my teammates, coaches and Buccaneers fans, and I'm disappointed in myself. I will work diligently every day of this suspension to stay in top football shape and be ready to help this team in the second half of the season. I have chosen to be immediately accountable for the situation I put myself in, which is why I will not exercise my appeal rights and will begin serving the suspension immediately."

Oh my god. This guy is a freaking idiot. His statement actually makes him look worse. You really can't fix stupid... Get rid of him.

As of right now QB is #1 need, and that will remain so until Freeman proves otherwise.  I wouldn't be so sure Talib is gone anyway.  this was known since camp apparently, so if they were going to drop him it probably would have happened already.

[Ms Elam]

Finally maybe he will be cut! I mean what does this guy have to do? Oh and shot out to the guy who said I lost all credibility because my first thread was"Talib should be cut".

Man I can't wait until this guy gets cut!

There's no good QBs in the draft, and coaches have said before that they're treating Freeman as a rookie, and that anything before their regime is not counted. Freeman will get competition, but not first round draft pick competition.

CB is definitely the #1 need. Even if Talib stays, he stinks anyways, and this is coming from a Talib fan. He would be a good #2 to get for cheap, but he shouldn't be the #1 in such a pass heavy league.

If he is gone, what will you change your screen name to?

[Ft Myers Buc Fan]

Talib is way too inconsistent on and off the field to warrant a second contract.  CB is now the team's clear cut #1 need in the off-season.
