    re: Trent Richardson, there’s more to the story than just missing walkthrough. I’m told there’s a legit family issue of personal nature

As far as your job goes, this is the ultimate crunch time, and you *need* to be there. IMO there is probably someone in his family sick, and he is using it as an excuse because he knew he'd be a healthy scratch again, and doesn't want the embarassment.
      Or he realises family is more important than his job.

              Yea...something is wanky there.

              He was given a two game suspension but missed Indy @ NE because of "a legit family issue of a personal nature". Ref: Post #16.

              Just one game remains on that suspension? WOW!

                Family emergency turns into a 2 game suspension - to be carried over into next year. There is some speculation that the suspension would allow the Colts to weasel out of the last guarantee year of his contract, but I can't see that, unless something pretty serious behind the suspension comes to light.

                  After running back Trent Richardson missed the AFC Championship game, Colts General Manager Ryan Grigson confirmed that the team had suspended the former first-round pick for that game and one more without giving a specific reason for the ban.

                  " Richardson’s rookie deal guaranteed him $3.18 million in salary for 2015, but the Colts may try to use the suspension to void that guarantee. "

                  Comment woodbuck27:

                  This story sheds more light on that strange announcement of a two game suspension after we learned that he was absent from the AFCC game with the NE Patriots because of 'a personal family matter'.

                  Damn but this can be a shitty world.

                    Wow. Top of the 2012 draft looks pretty nasty.

                    1) Luck (big hit)
                    2) RG3 (regressed big time)
                    3) Richardson (bust)
                    4) Kalil (regressed big time)
                    5) Blackmon (drug issues, probable bust)

                      Keep going...Morris Claiborne, Mark Barron. If you look at the whole 1st round from that draft, I think the bottom half of the 1st round was just as likely to hit as the top.

                      If you could undo one pick from that draft with someone from the same or later round, who would it be? I would skip drafting Jerel Worthy and draft Russell Wilson. As it turns out, Worthy busted anyway, so the pick was already wasted. So, in light of that, why not draft defensively and pick Wilson? It keeps him away from Seattle, and while they may have had some of the success they've enjoyed since 2012, I don't know if they could have gotten where they are now without Wilson. Sure, he would have been buried behind Rodgers, but as it turns out in 2013, A-Rod got hurt and missed about half a season, and if the Packers had Wilson, that would have show-cased his abilities and caused teams to line-up trade offers. Would it have been a head scratching choice made in real time in 2012? Yes, but it doesn't sound so strange now, given how Worthy busted out and what Wilson has become.

                        I want someone that is available to help out every game. I'm going to go with a player that was 'as opposed to what the experts were saying...NFL ready.

                        That player is LB Lavonte David picked by Tampa Bay in Round 2. (NO. 58) or 7 picks after Jerel Worthy (NO.51).

                        Lavonte David plays with heart.

                        Career NFL statistics as of 2014:

                        Tackles 425 ; sacks 10.0 ; FF's 5 and 6 Picks.

                        PFW/PFWA All-Rookie Team (2012); First-team All-Pro (2013).

                        Ranked No. 35 in the Top 100 Players of 2014 and in the new "Tampa 2" system he was outstanding with 146 combined tackles (101 Solo),1 Sack, 4 FF's, and 3 PD's earned Lavonte David a selection as an alternate for the 2015 Pro Bowl.

                        Notables:

                        WR's Mohamed Sanu (NO.83) and TY Hilton (NO.92) went in the 3rd Round.
