I guess he's officially gone (Koren Robinson)

[Patler]

The NFL announced it, so the appeal must be over:

Packers' Robinson suspended one year


(Oct. 17, 2006) -- Green Bay Packers wide receiver Koren Robinson has been suspended without pay for a minimum of one year for violating the NFL Substance Abuse Policy.

Robinson is eligible to be reinstated no sooner than September 18, 2007.

Robinson previously was suspended for four games in 2004 when he was with the Seattle Seahawks for violating the Substance Abuse Policy.

Ouch! Green Bay has horrible depth at WR now. They might have to give Woodson some looks at WR.........

[ahaha]

So, if Ferguson is out for the year we're down to three receivers. Once again we have to find somebody that's unemployed to step in and contribute at WR.

I guess this isn't that bad. When would you rather have Robinson?

1. Now, when we're already out of the playoff race.

OR
2. Next season, when we might be competing for a playoff spot.

He never had a chance......look, you guys are probably so sick of me on this subject you'd like me banned, but I have to be honest, I was skeptical when the Vikings signed him to a long term deal this spring, but if you hear him talk he's a likeable guy. He let down his team like you wouldn't believe. I'm pissed. You give a guy a bunch of money and THIS is how he repays you? He's in for one court case and get's arrested for another....
This son of a bitch takes this stuff to a new level. I wish him luck in the future (except against the Vikes of course) but I have a feeling he ain't never gonna straighten out.

Why couldn't they keep Gardner over Fergie or just keep Gardner instead of some TE that never suits up.

Granted Gardner has no upside, but he'd look better than the options the Pack currently has - Chris Francis and Calvin Russell.

We're Screwed!

Is Raushan Woods still a FA ?

[Ballboy]

is TT really capable of running an NFL team?

This crap shouldn't happen. We knew going into this that this could happpen, now we have Driver, Jennings and who? Like the above poster stated, our pants are around out ankles, I will only state that our pud is also hanging out.


Who, now maybe the Moss trade will come out even though the deadline has passed.

This is also an opportunity for Ruvell Martin. All 6'4" of him to show he is worthy........

[BF4MVP]

Charles Rogers is available...

I don't really see why they're not giving him a look..He's extremely talented and could probably be had for the minimum...

Right now I don't care that he has a history of injury problems, drug problems, and being lazy. Right now, we need a third receiver in the worst way, and Rogers is the best available in my opinion.

I'm not convinced that's true. Gardner had a golden opportunity this year in GB and showed absolutely nothing. He has a name and a first round pedigree, but that's about it at this point.

Boy, GB could end up with two players playing both ways. Blackmon and Woodson as starting CBs and WRs!

I don't know much about the whole trading deadline deal...is there a chance we could trade for Moss even though it's past the deadline?

Well good. It's only 11 months..

I really don't think that a suspension is the best thing for Koren right now...Now that he's away from his job, teammates, and coaches, it seems to me that the chances of a relapse are higher..

Rules are rules, though.

BF4MVP, I hear ya, but how has being with an NFL team worked out over the last several years? Not so good thus far.
