Letroy Guion expected to sign 1 yr deal with Pack

[dbain21]

Its pretty clear he was dealing. Why carry a firearm otherwise. Unless he's that dumb.

Raji and Pennel would be the only 2 fatties we had around, assuming we retain Raji. Boyd kinda smallish, but can play inside too. We'd be in okay shape, but yeah... would be good to add another piece in the draft or FA.

yeah, this is obviously more than, I like to smoke a little now and again, type stuff. If you wanna deal, fine. Don't expect to play football too

 

[thisisnate]

wonder how much of that cash has since mysteriously disappeared

I just read in the local Bradenton paper that 9% of the Florida population has a felony record, 1.6 million people. Take out kids under 18 and the percent goes higher. You gotta defend yourself in this state that amounts to a third world country interspersed with malls and golf courses.

Seriously though, the cash is the giveaway.

The other factor that plays into this is Peppers having played some 5-tech and 3-tech this past season. Any thought of him being released should now be downgraded as a thin group just got thinner.

 

[Mondio]

I didn't think Peppers was going anywhere anyway, unless he decided he wanted to call it quits. But He earned his contract and I'm sure they're going to give him the opportunity to do so again at least one more year.

There's some good names on that list, but there's a lot of time yet between now and when they'd even become available for real, rather than just theoretically.

 

[adambr2]

Teach me how to Raji...Teach me how to Raji!!! He has to be sitting in an awfully comfortable spot now.

I can't imagine they bring Guion back now that its a felony and includes a weapons charge.

I don't think this really changes anything with Raji. He's still coming off a major injury and he hasn't been effective or played inside in years. I wouldn't be willing to offer anything more than a low base with some incentives, and I wouldn't count on him being the starting NT without at least some training camp competition for him.

I thought carrying loaded firearms was a civic duty in Florida.

Weed, on the other hand, can only be gotten away with in Colorado or Washington.

Don't forget Alaska.

Most troubling is the hige amount of cash. Suspicious that he is a drug dealer. Dude, get your head out of your ***. You are no longer a Viking!

Probably no longer a Packer either. Maybe we get a year out of him if the thing drags in court, but I think he is gone.

 

[bozz_2006]

Oh, I don't think this would stop the team from re-signing him. Unless he serves time. Which he won't. Because I don't think he has any priors. And nobody serves time for weed. And he was arrested in Florida, and they love guns, so he won't serve time on the firearm. If, before this happened, we were planning to sign him back on, I can't see this stopping us from re-signing.

 

[Pokerbrat2000]

Really? Is there even a doubt that Guion is done as a Packer? As long as the facts are correct and they appear to be, we just trimmed our roster by 320 pounds and 357 grams

 

[yooperpackfan]

Bye bye Letroy, thank you for your service.
I wish you well in your future endeavor.

Sure they got the right guy? I don't see any twinkies! Who carries that kind of money, unless they aren't attending a political convention or resupplying?

High stakes gamblers are known to carry that kind of cash, for what it's worth.

I carry a firearm. But - even though I live in Washington state, AND I'm in the music business, I don't smoke pot and I wouldn't carry that much cash around.

Packers don't need a guy like this. Bye bye.

I didn't think Peppers was going anywhere either and have doubts he'll even be renegotiated. It was a public service observation.

Clearly the list of DT free agents includes guys who will be re-signed by their current teams or who will be too expensive.

FA negotiations can begin March 7 and signings can begin March 10.

 

[bozz_2006]

I'm just saying that there are guys who've been guilty of far worse than carrying a gun (in Florida, mind you. everybody in Florida carries) and having a bunch of weed.

 

[PackerDNA]

If he makes it to UFA, Dan Williams of Arizona would probably be the best bet.
It's funny, but I was thinking the other day that the two biggest things that could derail this team next season would b e injuries, or a case of the legal stupids infecting the league lately.

The NFL does not operate under the "innocent until proven guilty" principle. Guys get suspended long before they ever go to court or plead out. If Guion is headed for suspension, he won't be re-signed.

A guy carrying around that kind of cash, in what looks like large bills, isn't just supplying a few friends and family.

I wonder if the NFL has ever suspended anybody for tax evasion?

Not in that amount. That's a trafficking amount

Can our next DT not have substance issues

Well, maybe he put some cash down on the Seahawks to lose. Maybe i have to reassess my criticisms!
