(28,017 posts)1. there are a few teams that will pick him up.
Unless he tests positive for pot.
You take a freak of nature (to play in the NFL you have to be), get preferential treatment since grade school, get catered to in HS and even more in college, then you are treated as though you can do no wrong because you are a star.
Having few people skills, honed to use your body as a weapon, and having a bad temper is a dangerous situation. At least the Ravens did the right thing.

for at least this season.

(9,874 posts)8. Anyone who does claim him is begging for a public relations nightmare
I doubt even Jerry Jones is that dumb
