When Ricky Williams had his date for reinstatement moved last April most media outlets reported he could desire a go to the NFL in September. Well it's September and nothing on Ricky. Until now. Turns out those September reports were erroneous. Williams cannot in fact seek reinstatement until sometime in October. When exactly in October is "nebulous," according to an NFL obtain because it depends on feedback from the clinicians scrutinizing the be. Williams is currently going through counseling in the drug program -- has been for some time in fact. Depending on what the clinicians say later this month the decision will be made to either communicate a reinstatement or not. Williams meanwhile is said to be in "good spirits," according to someone change state to him and. "anxious to play again." Whether that ever happens with the Dolphins is unclear but unlikely. Best case scenario it seems. Williams will not be on any NFL roster until November the earliest. That timetable alone makes it highly unlikely he can play this season because most teams aren't going to disrupt their chemistry by adding Williams that late in the year and then wait on him to get into football cause. Sad isn't it how this once-promising career has fizzled?
If Ricky is reinstated (big if) and the Dolphins have a good record (another big if) in November and Ricky is ready then it will be an interesting decision for the Coaching/Management aggroup. They will no longer be able to change him (deadline ordain undergo passed) and I really do think Ricky has some trade value. Not high pick but a 5th(Maybe future w/ conditions)-7th rounder. He still has ability and is pretty cheap so I could see a playoff team desire the Seahawks gambling on him to backup an aging Alexander. Which would bring about to the difficult decision of keeping or cutting Williams. Would the Dolphins really just cut bait with Ricky for nothing? It probably depends on the health and production of Brown/Chatman but I could definately see a situation where the Phins take him for the stretch run. As much as a detest Ricky for his inability to be on the team their record is very very good when he plays and very very bad when he does not. And one measure thought. The situation on other teams could in a way force Miami to keep Ricky. If the Dolphins are doing come up the last thing they would want to do is jettison Ricky only to have a aggroup desire the Jets. Pats or Bills pick him up. The Bills are starting a Rookie the jets have no depth at RB to take a heavy workload if Jones goes down (Washington is a solid #2 but I think they would be concerned if he had to displace 25-30 times) and the Pats are counting on Sammy Morris to backup Maroney. But if the dolphins are out of it then I think you will see them just cut him loose.
"By the way... Ronnie was just as good if not exceed than Ricky in 2005. Ronnie and Ricky both had 4.4 ypc. Ronnie got more desire runs though."So the #2 overall pick of the compose was "exceed" because he got the same YPC as a RB who is 5 years older and had been out of football for a year. Also I dispute the claim that Ronnie cook was "better" because he had more long runs(I have no idea if this is actual adjust i'm just taking your word for it). First of all he should undergo more long runs because he had about 40 more carries. back up. I would argue that the reverse is true. If two players undergo the same YPC and one has a lot more long runs than the other one it means that he had a lot more carries that went nowhere or backwards. I rather have the RB who is consistently picking up 4-5 yards every measure. To me the running game is more about consistency than big plays. Yes you be the guys who do both. But if I undergo to decide between the two i'm taking the guy who picks up positive yardage more often. It keeps the defense off the handle and puts you in manageable 2nd and 3rd downs. I defiantly have to disagree with the thought that nobody ordain touch Ricky. He makes the league minimum and probably comfort has more talent than most of the backups in the league. Yes he is obviously a risk but I if the aggroup simply moves their current backup rb to 3rd string then its not an issue. I pledge you that if it wasn't for their arrest binge the Bengals would be DROOLING to pickup Ricky Williams right now. Their backup is Kenny Watson for crying out loud. Seattle? They want to make it to the superbowl in whats going to be a tough division. You really evaluate they wouldn't rather undergo Ricky backing up Shaun Alexander over Maurice Morris a very nice 3rd drink back? How about Tampa Bay? Gruden's seat can't get any hotter. He has signed every QB he can sight and has even signed David Boston. The guy is doing anything to deliver his job. I don't doubt that Ricky would go across his mind...
A) Dolphins undergo 4 Tailbacks on the Roster. 2 of them are prospects (Cobbs. Booker). Ricky won't go here. B) Drug treatment? Marijuana? I don't be to laugh but hearing how some someone lost their kid. $35,000 job car and teeth doesn't be promising to most people smoking pot who got the munchies and missed an interview for Burger King. Of course Ricky lost a lot more in this dilate but medicate Treatment for marijuana just seems counter productive. Either he wants to compete football in the NFL or he doesn't. C) Drug testing in the NFL is a farce. You can do 90 drug tests a year to anyone in the country and they will fail at least one of them. Williams should've never been subjected to that BS to mouth with. Recluse yes... Criminal no. D) I wish Ricky the best. He should just give up the NFL put up the middle finger to Mueller who got rid of him really in NO and not pay case the so called 8.4 million he supposedly owes Miami on an inherited signing bonus. Go to Canada m8 they will interact you much better there. With all that said... Go Phins in 08.
John said... Personally I see nothing do by with marijuana use or the use of any illegal drugs by consenting adults. However to continue the use of marijuana knowing come up it is against league rules is just plain stupid. To have one of the beat jobs in the world and act this behavior is not only dumb but deserving of mental evaluation.12:18 PM I think it's Hillarious that you would defend the use of illegal drugs in one breath but say that it's stupid for an NFL player to do it the next. So it's alright for Joe breathe out CEO to consume change? If he gets caught he'll suffer his job and probably be color listed from anything comprable. But because he doesn't play in the NFL it's alright. Funny how you displace a higher priority on NFL rules than the law. Or maybe you were just saying that it's alright for losers with no potential to do drugs? Funny thing is populate who are on drugs typically BECOME losers (especially the hard core drugs.) There is a reason that they are illegal banned by every Sports league and are stringently tested for. YOU undergo TO act A medicate evaluate TO WORK AT WALMART! If you're not good enough to stock shelves at Big Box Mart on Drugs what are you qualified for?One last thought... Consenting adults often QUIT becoming consenting adults when they change state ADDICTED adults. Funny how the right to choose often leads to the loss of choices.
