2019 Browns Off Season/Roster Discussion

So stupid. If the idea is for these players to get help and better then all should be allowed with team

In Hunts case the NFL is just trying to seem hard against him because he got such a bad rap.
But why they didn't announce it as a 15-game suspension in which he already served 7 games is beyond me.

It's really stupid to not let suspended guys, especially guys like Hunt whose problems are off-the-field, practice with the team. Forcing him to stay away from the team makes it more likely he'll have another issue, imo.

I mean we pretty much do this across America. We treat addicts as people to be avoided and to be looked down upon. Instead of realizing they have a issue that needs help.

Hunt isn't a drug addict.

Hunt isn't a drug addict.

All of his incidents involved alcohol.

 

[MGMT]

Alcohol is a drug but imagine how much you’d offend an alcoholic if you called them a drug addict.

There’s not much of a point to my post within this discussion so I’m sorry.

Seems more anger management issue with Hunt, but alcohol also seems involved, but dont think he is an alcoholic which you are implying, but who knows maybe he is.

Doesn’t matter what somebody’s problem is. Being in isolation, especially from people they’ve formed connections with, isn’t good for people. It isn’t in our DNA to be by ourselves.

The only people that should be isolated are people who are proven dangers to society at large. And even those people should be given some chance to interact with others in prison.

This one has been nailed so far in this thread. This is a public appeasement move so far by the NFL. They want to look like they’re coming down hard on the guy. In reality, they should have decided on however many games he’s out, made that a long suspension and however long that is, put him around the team. EXPLAIN WHY YOU MADE THE DECISION.

It’s fascinating that these massive leagues have no understanding of how people actually work and what they respond to. And they just treat the players and fans as “yes sir no sir” automatons. Like they have no ability to predict reactions to something like this or guys like Luck who think for themselves dropping out of the league. And they treat the public as such as well. That they should just buy the product.

It really doesn’t have to be that way. These guys running this league will sell the least quality product they can to move tickets and they will protect the players to the lowest extent they have to until they realize they’re failing in both regards. Then they spend and respond.

I don't know if he's an alcoholic or not, but he clearly can't control himself when he's drunk.

Bills fans on twitter seem to be upset. So maybe he’s good? Idk never heard of him.

In fairness, are there many guards in the NFL that are household names?
