Drop Bernard Williams

Anyone finally dropping Bernard Williams now that he has been let go? I'm thinking about it.

Who the hell is Bernard Williams? No offense to you my fellow FF post enthusiast.

In one of the most surprising transactions of the NFL season, the Philadelphia Eagles released a player few outside (or even inside) the organization even knew was technically still a part of the franchise. The Eagles announced the release of Bernard Williams on Thursday, a former first-round pick who last played with the team in 1994. 

Why was the former first-round pick out of Georgia still on the roster? Technically, he wasn't.

The Eagles still owned the rights to Williams, who played just one season before being suspended six games in 1995 for marijuana possession. Williams later had a second positive test for marijuana, so he was suspended for the remainder of the 1995 season. 

Williams never decided to apply for reinstatement, so he was technically still suspended by the NFL. The Eagles have been through several head coaches and general managers since Williams last played a game for the team. Rich Kotite was the head coach for the 1994 season and Harry Gamble was the general manager. Kotite was fired at the conclusion of the 1994 season and Gamble was fired at the end of the 1995 season, when Williams was still suspended.

I don't care what you guys say, I'm dropping him. Josh Gordon, you're next buddy.

For dramatic affect, the story should've mentioned that he's 51 years old. 

Wonder if he's still 'smokes' ?

If he gave it up, maybe he could hang out with snoop.
