Colston! Oh wait, they actually developed him, what were they thinking developing their players...what big name receiver do the Saints have? what receiver did they trade a 1st and 3rd for?
You can't really defend yourself from it.The way I see it, if he can be had for minimal compensation, say a 3rd or 4th rounder due to off the field issues then sure why not. This guy is the real deal and could jump in and be an immediate uprade for us at the position.
His potential outweighs the off the field nonsense as long as a team defends itself against the possiblities of another incident.
Either way I love Marshall and would jump all over it for the right offer.

whoa now...dont get carried away i didnt see anybody say something this outlandish.
the difference is you can tell Ricky learned from his mistakes, he smoked a little bit of weed. Im not condoning it although i dont think its the worst thing. Ricky didnt beat up his girlfriend and get into bar fights. I know Ricky wont fail another NFL drug test. Hes got one year left in the league, he can go smoke weed all he wants once he retires but im 99% sure he wont be failing another NFL drug test.
Of course you can, do not give up the house to aquire and restructure contract to add clauses to protect the team. Sorta like weight clauses etc...You can't really defend yourself from it.
I doubt the Broncos will give him away for anything less than a 2nd. A 2nd is giving up the house considering just how mentally unstable Marshall really is. Then Marshall has to agree to those clauses, what if he doesn't agree on those clauses?Of course you can, do not give up the house to aquire and restructure contract to add clauses to protect the team.

How do you know he would agree to an incentive laden contract with clauses? Maybe it's just me, but Marshall comes off as the type of guy who wants as much money as he possibly can, and incentives/clauses doesn't fit into that.I agree 2nd is too much, he would agree because the restructuring of the contract would come with new incentives a new signing bonus.

I agree, Ricky has changed or so I hope and I don't see him breaking our heart again, but he did MANY times...just like Marshall has.
Certainly, pretty deep draft.The risk of bringing Marshall to South Beach and losing him for a year is greater than the risk of not getting a quality player with our 2nd rounder....(exept for, you know, Pat White)
You gamble away a Pat White pick on the chance of getting a STEAL on one of the best receivers in the game today. Yea, if the FO think it's a good idea, I definitely do as well.
