I don't get it. Head-scratcher.

Could the team be holding him out until after the bye week, and saving snaps for him? If that's the case, is it worth 1-3?

Or is it worse, like disciplinary reasons? Or is a trade in the works? If it's a trade, why in holy h--- do you trade a talented young NT? If it is a trade, it better be for a starting MLB'er.

But this is still a head-scratcher...

I'd guess he's just overweight and out of shape and Payton's pissed that he let himself get that way.

Just a guess.

That'd be my guess as well, since he had a weight problem back in college.

Still, he has a lot of talent and the physical tools to dominate his position, so I'm far from ready to give up on him - even more so since this'll probably be Bunkley's last season as a Saint or at least a starter.

He has been injured all camp.

Why would we trade the most effective Nose Tackle we've had for some time unless he's got some off-the-field issues?!?

When Bunkley was limited last year, they rotated and the defense took off...

And a MLB isn't worth a $hit if he doesn't have a NT occupying blockers...

If Payton said it's our deal, then I'm inclined to think he did or didn't do something that Payton was not happy about and a message was sent...
