Yeah I just think that possibility is remote though, and beyond that I highly doubt he gets off scot-free.

There is a reason police are taking their time with this, and not to mention the fact of Hernandez allegedly attempting to destroy evidence. There is also the issue of him shooting some guy in the face back in February too.

Not to mention what all this is going to do to his career in the NFL.

Are there clauses in contracts about off the field behavior that essentially can void it? Like murder?

 

 

I'm sure the Pats have a clause that says if he's not able to play that they can void his contract... I would assume prison kicks that in.

Voiding his contract is not even a concern. It's that huge multi million dollar signing bonus he got that they're going to go after. Something like 15 mill if I remember correctly

To get the real gunman who killed the guy they can give Hernandez obstruction of justice to dime his friends. That's alot better then accessory which is fine to me if I had to pick

If he's directly involved in this murder, you seriously think he's going to just get off with obstruction of justice? This isn't a television show. If all the police could get on him were that they would have arrested him already.

True. It's 16 million. According to this article, so far he's only been paid 9.25 million in a signing bonus.

How many times do athletes get off alot easier than they shod when stuff like this goes down? All the time. All the warrants they have for him on his arrest are obstruction charges. If they had more they would get him on that but they don't.

Whoever pulled the trigger will do serious time. No one is going to do life in prison for one of their boys. The fact that three people were involved changes everything; they'll start cutting deals and will turn the killer in. The fact that the victim was shot in the back of the head takes self defense likely out of the equation.

If he did pull the trigger, he's going to do serious time and his contract will be voidable and the Pats will sue to recover the signing bonus.

not how it works.  even if he didn't pull the trigger, but was there (and it sure sounds like he was), he'll be charged with murder just the same.  There's almost no chance he does less than 20 years.

These things will not go down like some of you think. There are deals and inner workings going on to get the real bad guy that we know nothing about. Just because you think someone should serve a certain punishment for something they did does not mean that will actually happen.

      Agreed on the last part. They can’t afford to lose all these games with Martin and Perets.

      Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
