Worst off-season ever

[BillsVet]

In the span of 3 months, this happened:

 

1. May: 1st round pick Shaq Lawson, whose shoulder removed him from other teams' boards suffers a shoulder injury during a non-contact drill. He undergoes surgery and will not be able to play until Week 8.

 

2. May: The same day Lawson's injury is announced, it is revealed Sammy Watkins had foot surgery a month previous and is uncertain for training camp.

 

3. May: The Bills media policy is made known and widely panned for preventing any record of what players do in practice. Later, the policy is walked back.

 

4. May: GM Doug Whaley tells WGR 550 radio that football is "a violent game that I personally don't think humans are supposed to play." The team is forced to issue a clarification the following day.

 

5. July: Karlos Williams shows up 20+ pounds overweight and later is suspended 4 games for a violation of the league's substance abuse policy.

 

6. July: Jonathan Williams, a 2016 5th round pick is arrested for DWI in Arkansas.

 

7. July: Manny Lawson is injured while working out and misses the beginning of training camp.

 

8. August: Reggie Ragland, a 2nd round pick the team depended on as an immediate starter, suffers a knee injury and will miss the 2016 season.

 

9. August: Cordy Glenn suffers a high ankle sprain and will miss the entire pre-season. Expected to be available for week 1.

 

10. August: Manny Lawson is suspended 1 game for a violation of the league's domestic violence policy.

 

11. August: Marcell Dareus suspended 4 games for a violation of the league's substance abuse policy.

 

 

I didn't include McCoy's fight with off-duty cops in Philadelphia, but considered it (EDIT:) because he was not charged.

But Rex said we won the offseason!

 

But this is insanely dramatic. Some positive things happen and you have to be the most negative person ever to ignore them.

You missed Rex lying about Reggie's injury then looking like an idiot.

That is BS and you know it.

 

If the weather is bad, do you automatically blame Rex?!? Seems as though you blame him for everything.

[Maury Ballstein]

Nothing like bad news to bring out the billsvet.

 

Time to shine.

Which teams removed Shaq from their draft boards?

 

 

The ones that didn't draft him.

[Direhard Fan]

It's the players and they bring this on them selves. They deserve more than just four games etc. They deserve to be banned and than see if the bright guys, who are getting all this money due drugs and beat up women. Yea they will and good buy to them. They get just what they deserve. Nothing.

[Mike in Horseheads]

Which teams removed Shaq from their draft boards?

The ones after the Bills took him.
