Monday (bad) news: Gregory drops appeal, now gone 14 games

[dbair1967]

Per ESPN. Dropped his appeal and is now done for 14 games, so its a virtual certainty his season is over.

Dallas Cowboys defensive end Randy Gregory withdraws appeal

 

[Scot]

And that's what I said would happen and why I said I wrote this kid off already

Mark my words, he will fail another drug test this season and WILL be suspended a full season

 

[Bob Sacamano]

I thought it was 10? But yeah, he hasn't been practicing with the rehab stuff anyways. Wasn't going to be doing jack.

 

[bvhawkeye]

and yet another totally wasted 2nd round Jerry pick... wonder why we can't get into the playoffs???

 

[theoneandonly]

Are there actually still people clinging to the Randy Gregory fantasy?

 

[Scot]

He will fail another test this season and he will be suspended for an entire season at that point

Face it ppl, this kids career is done. Move on already!

He's probably out getting high right this minute to commiserate about the additional 10 game suspension.

 

[TheZoneSucks]

He's dead Jim.


I already operate under the assumption that we have seen all we are ever going to see from Gregory. The defense needs a total overhaul anyways so what's one more?

 

[dbair1967]

Yep, agree that we may have seen the last of him here. Maybe the last of him in the NFL altogether.

I kinda wonder if he ends up in the CFL.

I remember bringing this up when the 10 game suspension was first announced. It was two separate incidents, why should it only be 10 games? He failed a test, got 4 games for that incident. Then he fails to show up for another test, totally separate incident. That incident is a 10 game suspension. So he deserves the 14 games. He shouldn't get the benefit of having the two suspensions run concurrent.

And I agree that he will like test positive again and this is likely the last we really him from this kid ever again.

He's been nothing but a JAG doing JAG things. I couldn't care less if he never plays again.

 

[Scot]

Never even registered a single sack in his career

 

[Midswat]

FRESH LEGS FOR THE PLAYOFFS!!!!!

 

[dbair1967]

Never even registered a single sack in his career

He killed it in preseason though, he clearly had bigtime pass rush ability.

He was never healthy last yr, when he got that high ankle sprain in week one vs NYG it looked like a season ending injury. In a way, it was. He never looked the same.

 

[Scot]

He was high all last year! That's why he won't play all this year. Most likely won't ever play again

Who gives a shit about this kid? He falls under the coulda woulda shoulda category of we will never know how good he could have been. All this hype for a drug addict who has never recorded a sack

The only thing this kid as proved is that he can smoke some dope!

Anything beyond that is just a speculation

 

[Dustdevil]

Well that's why he was available in the 2nd round in the first place. We've got to stop gambling away those 2nd round picks. We need solid players on this team. Gamble with the 3rd or 4th if you must, but we need quality starters there.

 

[MrB]

Gambling with a 3rd is just as bad. That's still a premium pick. They don't need to gamble with any of those picks.
