Firing him during free agency reeks of panic, they didn't anticipate the leaks and they didn't have a plan for it.
As for the alcoholic thing, if you want to believe that go ahead. If it was disrupting his work and influencing the board I don't think we'd be seeing them following his plan today.

but he didn't show up to work . . . what is the point of having him and paying him if he is not working? not helping with scouting any longer, not doing his job in FA? it was HIS choice not to show up even after telling the team a week before to not worry, he would be at the combine . . . they expected him there and he stayed at home . . . and he said he would be out another week and be back the next . . . next week came and guess what, he was not at work again . . . again on his own choice . . . why pay the man if he his not showing up for work??? how is that helping the team with FA or preparing for the draft???
