Why aren't we going after ET?

[BotchedLobotomy]

he has most recently been more of a pain in the arse than he is worth.

That has never deterred JJ before

I haven't been following the ET story much, but with 2 of our 3 starting CBs now out.... our secondary is battered, beaten, and our defense has been atrocious. ET is an all-pro and could make a big impact... what's going on here?

Why isnt anyone

ET is not a CB, and that's what we need. there is something to this ET thing. nobody is touching him. eventually stories will come out....

Any guy that punches a teammate is not someone you want.

I don't know, Steve Smith was whipping a-- like he was a young Mike Tyson with Cus the trainer in his corner.

What about stabs a teammate with scissors in the neck? (Irvin)

Would you be OK with Rae Carruth? He's a free man now.

Isn’t he like 80 now?

When players start acting crazy they find a lot of times after their death they had CTE. Henry, had it Hernandez had it. I suspect Antonio Brown has it. Not really playing Dr, but the signs are a pretty good indicator. Also how the hell did you not know what CTE is. Is been like THE Major issue in the NFL for like a decade.

He did say he felt like it "could" be CTE. Its pretty clear he wasn't speaking definitively. Its amusing you don't know what CTE is when its been the entire catalyst for this monumental player safety movement. Did you happen to notice some rule changes? Have you been under a rock?

I'm well aware that there are problems that some players suffer with I just didn't recall the acronym CTE. Most of the time when rules are discussed and/or changed it's to reduce concussions. Yes concussions cause CTE but most time concussions are mentioned. I still say fans can guess all they want on medical issues, but since while players are alive even doctors can only guess about this until the test are run during an autopsy.

I want ET. But I think it's safe to say the reason they are not going after him is the same reason every team hasn't signed him yet. We fans don't know the truth. But a guy that good must have some real issues to not be on an NFL roster right now.

I don’t think one player is going to improve this team

 

[Bullflop]

I don’t think one player is going to improve this team

So true -- anytime a player has been a blight upon a team and expects elite money anyway, he isn't worth having.

 

[Stash]

I honestly think he still wants a bunch of money.

Been saying all along that he doesnt think he did anything wrong in Baltimore and wants the same contract.

Which would support my own theory of the man having mental health issues.

 

[links18]

"We like our guys."

 

[jsb357]

he's old, getting older everyday, and EXPENSIVE

 

[fivetwos]

I wouldnt mind the idea of sub par safety play if we were taking lumps because of developing younger guys.

Neither of the starters have a future here IMO.

At this point, Diggs looks like the only guy in our secondary who has a future here.

Yes and his self admitted guess was nothing more than a theory. It wasn't meant to be a diagnosis or create some type of treatment pathway. So you can keep the snide remarks, like "playing doctor" to yourself. Its not necessary and completely unwarranted.

That never stopped the Raiders from signing the player.

No one seems to be going after him at this stage. I would not mind seeing Dallas go after him but not at the price tag he has talked about

What price tag has he talked about? I haven't heard anything about that?
