So he probably will not be available opening day. Or the week after. Or the week after that. Depends on what happened, obviously. They won't suspend him if it comes back from free and just is mental breakdown.
bdutton Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 He was charged with a Felony. I believe that would be against the personal conduct policy of the NFL. I expect a minimum 1 game suspension.

JuJu is great, but he could have looked pedestrian for us last year. Man, I like Zay. This is just totally nutso. We may have to keep our picks and draft a few WR's. Chark, St. Browne, the guy from Indiana. TBH I didnt know Zay and had never seen him play. I had seen a half dozen of JuJu's games and liked him a lot. Starts to look again like the Steelers knowing how to evaluate WRs and the Bills, well, not so much. I think we need to refrain from judging Zay until we know more about what actually went down but if this is drug/partying related I will be very disappointed. I get the "20 year old millionaire" excuse but after Kujo and MD I'm starting to have my fill of this stuff. And I can see why teams put so much value on character and professionalim. Having guys on your roster who f'up, especially if their talent should put them in a leadership role, is going to seriously and negatively impact your chances for success.

ndirish1978 Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 This is terrible. It's 100% a tainted drug and I find it terrifying this seemingly nice kid was so out of it he tried to jump out of a 30th story window as a result. The people who are ripping on him as a draft pick at this point in this thread are frankly gross people, this is a moment to show some actual humanity. 2
Freddie's Dead Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 Wow, incredibly disturbing. Hope Zay gets the psychiatric help he needs. As far as football goes, you can't blow 2nd round picks this badly. Zay may never see the field again. Just brutal for the Bills.
Sweats Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 So, what’s the update on Zay?.....is he ok?......or is he going away?

Steptide Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 I've followed zay on Instagram and Twitter since he became a bill. He's been nothing but class and if you've ever heard him in an interview, he's humble and well spoken. I know he's young and kids make stupid decisions, but I'd be surprised if he intentionally took some kind of drug. I wonder if he got slipped something. Maybe him and his brother were at a bar and and someone slipped something in his drink(ive personally had this happen). Either way, I hope he is OK and hope he remains a bill

They can contribute, but other factors are always involved, like genetic disposition, stress, etc. It’s a misconception that this was likely caused by drugs? Take away the drugs and this doesn’t happen. Whatever his disposition it was the drugs that was the lynchpin.
Ol Dirty B Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 4 hours ago, MURPHD6 said: Obviously its a mental health issue as opposed to a drug issue. And to all those lauging at or blaming the kid, schizophrenic episodes are scary, serious, and beyond the suffer's control.They can be brought under control with meds, but I doubt that he ever suits up in a bills uniform again. The NFL has a pretty bad record when it comes to mental illness and there's lots of misinformation (see comments above) out there. How is any of that obvious? You're reaching. No one is qualified to make that judgment just off that video. 1
wagon127 Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 Hopefully he is just suspended. Releasing him is probably an overreaction. We will mostly forget about this by the season opener.

Ol Dirty B Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 7 hours ago, Buffalo Barbarian said: So bizarre, he must have been on some serious hallucinogenic drugs. We should have drafted Cooper Kupp who fits the hard working players that McD wants. Also we wouldn't have had to trade up either which I thought was a terrible waste of picks for Zay, clearly our WR coach talked them into trading up for fear of losing him. Meh, WR coach wanted him. WR coaches don't make the decision to trade up in the second round and pick a guy. You're just flat out wrong.
Jauronimo Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) Is there anything better than TBD tackling drugs and mental health issues? These threads bring together all of our subject matter experts: Old timers who have never done drugs: "Hes addicted to smoking wacky tobaccy just like Darius. Lucky he didn't kill anybody tripping on the pot. Cut his ass!" Mental health experts: "I took 2 semesters of Psych and clearly Zay is dealing with deep depression and suicidal tendencies likely brought on from dropping that sure TD pass against Carolina that f@#$ed my fantasy season! Cut his ass!" Actual mental health expert: "my wife works in the psych ward at the local hospital and clearly Zay is dealing with deep depression and suicidal tendencies possibly brought on from having a tough rookie season. What he needs now is all of our hugs and prayers!" Young guy who has done drugs once: "Dude, he was only smoking a little K2 and bumping a few lines. He'll be fine in the morning. People do s@#$ like this all the time when they're drinking and alcohol is still legal! Do you even know how many things can be made out of hemp? Legalization would be a boon for the economy but big pharma doesn't want to give up their monopoly and the government wants us zoned out on Adderall and oxy so we're easier to control!"

Other factors like stress, lack of sleep, and genetics are just as likely to be contributing factors. If he tried to jump out a window, he's manic, and weed doesn't cause that all by itself. If it did, it would not be legalized in particular areas for recreational use. Your posts have been awful in this thread. Not one person blamed weed, this isn't the 50s. 1
