I believe the suspension goes into effect week 1 even if he has not been signed by another team.

Re: Packers Cut Hargrove
 

This is really going to hurt Hargrove, although I hope I am wrong. He has had a rough time staying in shape and out of trouble in the past. I hope he can stay focused and in shape, even if he isn't w/ a team.

Re: Packers Cut Hargrove
 

Yeah, Hargrove is hosed. A team will have to get pretty desperate to pick up an journeyman player knowing he's got an 8 game suspension begining when they pick him up. And every week of the season it's gets worse. Half the season, then 8 game suspenson for 7 active games, then 6 active games, then 5....

Hargrove may get a year long suspension for saying something that we now know he didn't say.

Goodell is such a bozo.

Re: Packers Cut Hargrove
 

"NFL spokesman Greg Aiello also told NFL.com and NFL Network that Hargrove's eight-game suspension will start in Week 1 of the 2012 regular season, regardless if he's with a team or not at that time."


I can't see any team picking him up until his suspension is almost or completely done with.

Re: Packers Cut Hargrove
 

OK, that's way better. There's a good chance some team is running low on defensive linemen by then.

Re: Packers Cut Hargrove
 

Teams can always use a DT, and Hargrove can play when motivated. Just hope he can keep his head (and butt) in shape until he is eligible to play again.

Re: Packers Cut Hargrove
 

The way things go in the NFL, we jsut might need him in week 8 bring him in after the suspension

Re: Packers Cut Hargrove
 

If he's in shape and ready to play by week 8 I don't see any reason in the world not to sign him if we need depth. I always loved that guy and thought he was very underrated.

Same here Dude. I always loved that guy and thought he was very underrated.
