Talk about keeping it under wraps and in-house. ;)

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

Not shocked.

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

And the team knew about it...

"John Keim
Yes, the #redskins knew about the buchanon suspension before re-signing him."

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

Que the signing of Kelvin Hayden soon

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

he'll be cut watch

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

[quote=skinsfaninok;818545]he'll be cut watch[/quote]

Why would they cut him if they knew about it before they signed him?

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

[quote=NC_Skins;818540]Not shocked.[/quote]

Why not?

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

[quote=NC_Skins;818547]Why would they cut him if they knew about it before they signed him?[/quote]


Because I think they'll sign Hayden now

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

Well at least he is putting in the extra effort.

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

Plus they signed Josh Wilson, so I could see PB released

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

If we retain Rogers cant Josh Wilson fill that spot?

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

[quote=skinsfaninok;818549]Because I think they'll sign Hayden now[/quote]

You can't have too many CB's on a roster. Who do we have for depth now anyway? We still have Byron Westbrook? I know we cut Macho Harris. Hated to see that. From Richmond and VT grad.

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

How can a suspension even be announced, if the final CBA dealings about discipline haven't been completed? Must have been under the old CBA maybe?

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

We won't keep Rogers unless he comes crawling back after no one signs him on his terms and promises to play for dirt cheap.


Wilson is the starter tentatively.

I think Hayden is the smartest route to go for nickel.

Agree.. Los is gone

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

If I were shanahan my corners would be
DHall and Josh Wilson (starting)
Barnes at NB/FS, Kelvin Hayden at NB/DB
Byron Westbrook as reserve NB and special teams ace.

Brandyn Thompson on the PS

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

[quote=SmootSmack;818548]Why not?[/quote]

Because I firmly believe that Roids/HGH/etc... are prevalent in the NFL. It's going to be when such big money is at stake. If it was for Mary Jane, I'm still not shocked.

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

I see. So you're not specifically talking about PB. You're just saying that you'd actually be more shocked if not everyone was suspended

Correct. I'm not shocked by any positive tests (from anyone) to be honest with you. Be it roids or other recreational drugs.

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

i'm wondering when he and the rest of the players took their latest whiz quiz? was this under the new agreement or something from the end of last season?

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

Does anyone know if Santana might ever get suspsended, or is HGH possible trouble officially over?

Yeah, I 've been wondering that myself. Seems to have kind of blown over -- better to let sleeping dogs lie

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

Santana was being investigated for being partners in a gambling club too was'nt he?

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.

"Partners" may be too strong a word here. I believe he was in investor in a partnership that put some money into a gambling enterprise that went sour.

As far as I have heard, NFL Security is still looking into the matter...

Re: Phillip Buchanon suspended for four games.
 

i also dont understand how buchannon can be suspended. at this point, the old cba isnt in force and the new cba isnt finalized.

No clue

[quote=BigHairedAristocrat;818894]i also dont understand how buchannon can be suspended. at this point, the old cba isnt in force and the new cba isnt finalized.[/quote]It would be a suspension under the old CBA per the rules of the old CBA, and presumingly, his infraction would have occurred before the old CBA expired.

It would have had to, or they couldn't have CAUGHT him in violation of anything even if he was.

So this offseason was open season for doping and smoking dope. Hellz yeah. Hopefully our players got it out of their system. No pun intended.

Well that makes me feel better. I don't know about you guys but I hardly think Phillip Buchanon would intentionally try to use a banned substance. Makes me think about an article I read a while back, basically stating that the NFL needs to improve the information it puts out regarding banned substances. Mainly because I think those defensive linemen that used Starcaps were under the impression it was allowed by the NFL.
