And if they did pick him up, how would they justify it to the fans?

Yes, Raiders do that all the time. I don't think they will with Russell, but don't be suprised if someone does. Maby even the Bears.

Basically any team without a starter. And maybe some teams with a good starter. Some people say he's not a good quarterback, but he's got the speed of a tailback. And now in days u need a mobile quarterback because d-llineman keep on getting faster and stronger. And they would tell the fans that he will never do it again and say he's a very good addition to the team.

Not unti all this dogfighting and dog murdering stuff is over. If Michael is found innocent (which would be very unlikely), then I think it could be possible he could get picked up by another team (maybe the Oakland Raiders?), but I wouldnt consider it age huge possibility. I mean this guy's image has taken a huge shot. But most likely he's gonna get convicted, sentenced to jail for several years, and get a lifetime ban from the NFL.

in simple terms cool it. that's in straightforward terms a interest, who cares who's on the conceal. yet Hillis merits that conceal in simple terms as much as anybody else. apparently, others think of so too. He sorta trampeled the ranks. the sole cases whilst the votes have been reall close became whilst he squared off against Jamaa Charles and Matt Ryan. He kind of mauled Rodgers and Vick, very somewhat. Peopl could see that it is not who's extra suited, that's who the followers prefer to make certain on the conceal. Hillis is a fan sought after, a ferocious working back who brings back recommendations of Earl Campbell, John Riggis, and Larry Csonka in that he loves taking part in the interest tough and with a superb kind of touch. He in simple terms loves the sport, no longer the money. it somewhat is better than i'm able to assert for many folk on that bracket. individually, i wanted Jake long vs. Jamaal Charles or Julius Peppers vs. Ndamukong Suh. those could've been cool, and a salute to the vast men up front doing a superb kind of the artwork. different than for Jamaal, of direction. i'm in straightforward terms a KC fan.

Of course, there's a lot of stupidity in NFL management. Why would you think they would care about justifying it to their fans. The NFL's attitude towards the fans is " just buy the tickets and shut up".

Yes. Mike is too big of a playmaker, and there are far too many teams out there that need just that. I am sure the team that picked him up, their fans would be PUMPED!

NFL teams analyze their fan base closely, signing a mediocre quarterback who abuses and tortures animals kind of alienates people. Get some standards besides winning and 'bling'

The same way they justified letting Tony Larussa manage the All-Star game after he got a DUI.

Honestly, if i owned a football franchise, i wouldn't even hesitate. Mike is still a great football player, and this is his first, and probably last run-in with the Cops. He will straighten up after he does his time.

Hell yeah they would! He may be hated but NFL coaches know that he is STILL a talent. Some team will pick him up, regardless.
