6.5 would be an Adams Win
7 would be a split
7.5-8 Adams gets owned

I would’ve still waited out the year

This will be Adams first true test on contracts, lets see how he does.

today tage may be open to signing for 8 years

he may not feel that way if low balled and could bridge his way out of town in a few years

- homiedclown



It’s a fair point. But what if he only scores 45 points this year?

she named 3 people right away

this is 2022 with dna tests and advanced rape tests

it doesn't take 1 month let alone 7 to make a case if the dna matches and the rape test shows actual rape

Tage would be a UFA after the 23-24 season, so he could ARB his way to UFA status after next season.

Or longer. Some of Watson cases just wrapped up aka he paid them off.

He has 1 left and the girl is battling it out. It’s been what? 2 years almost 3 years now

Those are civil cases. Not criminal. Apples to oranges

There are over 2000+ unprocessed rape kits in the US right now.

For example a man was just arrested YESTERDAY after an untested Rape kit FROM 2012 was finally processed.

Its a massive hurdle in this county.

maybe the defund the police chants led to lab techs losing jobs


it's a simple test to get results, literally a lab tech in junior college could do it

he probably is a 45 to 50 point player if on second line and second team pp

you have tage, casey, cozens, and krebs

and all 3 first round picks are for centers after tage had his break out year

Yes I know how serious it is, and I know how long some investigations can take no matter how serious the crime is. I am not saying he is guilty, but it isn't out of the realm for a investigation to take 10 months especially as serious as this is, especially with a lot of he said she said.
- Buff36



Again, all that means is there is no probable cause. That is a low burden of proof. Police could of arrested him 10 months ago and continued to collect evidence while he was in jail awaiting trial.

You know the liability for a department if they had evidence to arrest on probable cause but allowed a rapist out on the streets so they could collect “more evidence for trial”? Do you know how much money a new victim would get suing that dept for allowing them to walk the street when they should of been in jail?

- kingcong39

given tage's injury history and production before this season

anything over 6 per IMO is rolling the dice


I can see both sides on this one

Yeah, they went back in time 8 years.

Come on, man.

Yes, it is a simple test, but there is a massive back log depending on where you are.

San Diego county just last year had a backlog of 2000+ rape kits finally processed dating back to 1990.

And that doesn't even count SDPD's numbers.

Ya ok 😂😂. Do you know how serious the crime is she alleged? That would of been a top priority case for the police dept. investigation would of been over in a month. So you think they just sat on a rape 1st charge (equivalent to a murder) for over a year? . That’s not how investigations work. You don’t wait a year to charge a person on gang rape “to take your time”

They did their investigation and found no probable cause to make an arrest. Never even made it to the DA because there was no charges/crime. Now the DA wants the case to save face and “look into it”. Unless there is new evidence discovered in the last few weeks (it is always a possibility) or the police dept was involved in a cover up (even more unlikely) this case is dead. Hence just a civil case at this point

Doesn't matter.
The media and fans have decided. Handcuff him and throw him overboard in shark infested waters.
He's only a punter.

I would think trying to remove 3 sexual predators from a college campus would be a high priority vs cold cases

What else does hodgins have to do to make this team?!?! I mean he made 3-4 highlight reel catches in pre-season. Caught everything throw his way by two not so good quarterbacks. Is tall….which other than gabe no WR is.

One injury to our WR room and now we got jake the snake lining up on the outside for a SB contending team? I mean i love me some beaner. I mean the dudes a god but this is the wrong message to send to the young guys.

Buffalo keeps him on the team, allows him to play, he is found guilty.

Thats potential look is much much worse than just letting him go now to figure itself out, and distancing the team from the situation.

Come on, there Rapists on the street right now waiting to be charged because evidence is still being collected or hasn't gone through labs yet. And there's just as many lawsuits for false arrests. With everything going on with the Police right now, they could have just wanted to do there due diligence. And even if he wasn't involved in the gang-rape if he new it was happening and closed a blind-eye to it, he should be charged anyway.

The girl went around telling people she was 18 and a college student. Her friends and others backed up that story from her

And already intoxicated showing up giant college party

While Ariza did have sex with a minor. I don’t think he knowingly did
