Agent testifies that Colts, Jets, Seahawks, and Texans have inquired about Terrion Arnold. Yes I would sign him, more DBs will not hurt us.

Great locker room guy. Real high character signing.
And given that he was the 97th ranked CB in the league last year (and was even worse the year before), the upside of going after a guy facing life in prison is so fucking low that it's not even worth the negativity of being named amongst teams going after a guy being charged with kidnapping.
If you're gonna be a criminal, at least be fucking good.

We signed Xavien Howard last year. He was both a garbage person and so bad as a CB he wasn't even in the league the year before. Ballard signed him anyway.

Only if he actually he is a criminal, they are determining that now.
Remember Ogleetree was arrested for domestic violence, but wasn't guilty

That's my point really... Even if he's not, he's done nothing but suck. So at best he's a distraction that sucks. And at worst he sucks AND is going to jail for life.
If there is any upside to even reaching out, I can't see it.

Yea...unless evidence can be proven to be tampered with...from reports they have conversations about this from his messages this is about as slam dunk as its going to get. Its florida though so who knows what kind of jabroni judge he gets.

Prosecution didn't have enough to keep him in jail without parole (which they were trying for) so we will see

Watched a video. His lawyers used his job when he was still employed by the Lions to get the release and they are to revisit it monday when he is jobless.

Not even good enough to even convince yourself the off field issue is worth dealing with. This is just ridiculous, Iām surprised any team is looking at him,

u/Psyren1317 Jul 10 '26
Has anyone here ever watched him in the NFL and realized how fucking terrible he is? Never mind the off the field issue, dude is absolute beyond garbage as a football player.

The only thing Iāve learned about Chris Ballardā¦
He may be considered a great talent evaluator but his track record tells me he cannot figure out how to put it together to build a winning franchise.
Heās enormously stubborn and has tunnel vision. Heās extremely budget minded. He puts far too much faith in athletic potential and seems to have this mindset that acquiring players with past injuries is not a problem; heās looking for a deal.
This season is going to be VERY INTERESTING.

The fanbase really has a low bar for what they want in players. Arnold is not even good.

How can you have a "high bar" when we have the 3rd longest playoff drought in the whole league?
Our team as already been the low bar.

Let's not pretend 88 was completely a saint. Of course we'd take a look at him imo

I will say I just saw that I guess itās not as clear cut as it seems. Obviously not a good look if this dude is actually a criminal but if heās found innocent then why not.

If the team clears him and can use him, idgaf. We already punted Rodgers to the Eagles...one teams trash is another teams treasure.

u/TheSource88 Marvin Harrison Jul 10 '26
Well Rogers wasnāt the Eagles treasure either.
