Unreal.

This pisses me off so bad. Weed is fucking legal in states. Who gives a flying fuck if he's smoking weed?!

Jesus christ, he had to twist his body around just to make that throw.

Listen, I hope the best for the guy. But he doesn't have the arm strength to be a significant deep ball passer.

edit: welp, better grab Cody Latimer

Is weed even addictive? I don't think I know anyone who ever smoked that ever had an issue trying to stop.

Oh well, he'll have more time to twitter feud with Kyrie.

If this is true why the hell didn't we take Watkins at 4 last night? The Browns had to know about this didn't they?

My thoughts exactly, hate to admit i'm agreeing with you.

Need to grab a couple WR's tonight to make up for it.

I watch Andy Dalton on a weekly basis unfortunately and Manziel no doubt has a better arm than him IMO. That's not saying much obviously, but Dalton is a decent NFL starter and Manziel has a stronger arm than him so I think he'll be ok.

PD is claiming Browns have know for 2 weeks.

Why pass on Watkins?

I'm happy with Gilbert don't get me wrong, but if you knew we'd need a WR, why didn't you take him?

Those 2,000 people who bought tickets last night/this morning want their money back.. such a fucking idiot. Really sucks for the Browns they definitely go WR in the 2nd and hell maybe even in the 3rd too.

My assumption is Farmer saw more value in trading down and taking a WR at 35 than taking Watkins at 4.

I don't necessarily agree but I don't see how his line of thinking could be anything other than that.

Because they don't want 2 suspended receivers

That's at least 5 failed tests in 5 years, going back to his 2 at Baylor and additional 1 at Utah. If this is a surprise to anyone in the front office then they're all completely incompetent.

Watkins was busted for weed in college.. my guess as to why they didn't want another risk.

It's fucking weed who gives a shit it's legal in two states.

If the nfl likes money they'll lessen the suspension. He didn't get busted for crack cocaine.

Because that's more important than coaches blatantly cheating.

Sugar
Tylenol
Trans Fat
Cigarettes
Beer
Skipping breakfast

It has nothing to do with it being weed. It has to do with the fact that he's a multiple time offender of the league's substance abuse policy. It could have been anything on the list. Exact same situation Blackmon is in right now.
