The NFL hasn’t officially announced Packers defensive lineman Letroy Guion’s three-game suspension yet because the appeal has not been heard, but that should change in a couple of weeks.

Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports that Guion will plead his case for a reduced sentence on August 24. Guion was arrested in February on drug and firearms possession charges that he settled by paying a $5,000 fine that carries no adjudication of guilt.

The no guilt part on Guion's behalf brings an interesting part of this into account.

But the other thing I've been wondering... is if it has taken them this long to get to Guion suspension appeal... how long will it take to get to Quarless and his suspension? and his potential appeal of the suspension?

Could they get Quarless suspension stuff done with before the season starts? or will the season be half over or more by the time they get to his suspension? what are the chances this gets taken care of before the season? during mid season? playoffs? or next off season? etc.

I don't think either of those would work. But maybe something like... the NFL rule states when a player gets caught with their first drug offense they only get a warning, and when they get caught by other methods for their first offense they're only suppose to get a one game suspension. And when my teammate was caught by the police for his first offense he only got a one game suspension like the rule states, but when I was caught by the police for my first offense, I unfairly get triple the amount of the stated rule.

RB Le'Veon Bell suspension was reduced from three games to two games when he appealed after getting caught and the guy he was caught with LeGarrette Blount got a one game suspension.

I don't know if he will, but I think Guion has a chance to get his suspension reduced... maybe reduced down to only two. But a three game suspension just sounds odd... usually it's one, two or four. Maybe the NFL is giving out some odd suspension with plans on reducing them when the players appeal to make the players feel better and more like they're fair when they're reduced or something?

Also one my main thoughts for making this was guessing on when the Quarless possible suspension might be handled. I thought it'd be handled before the start of the season and we'd just carry another TE until he comes back from his suspension.... but if he's not suspended until mid season (or later in the season) my mind things that could make it tougher to come up with a god replacement, as other teams could claim some guys or other players could be injured and we already brought up the better PS players. Probably not a big deal, but I don't like the idea of the suspension being handled in the middle of the year.

I agree, a suspension the middle of the year is not good. If I were the Packers I would think about having him just serve his suspension at the beginning or the season, if that's possible, even if it is an extra game.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

As for Quarless possible suspension, we don't know if the NFL has even looked into it official yet, much less handed down an official punishment. If they have not handed down a punishment, then Quarless can't accept it even if he wants to take the punishment without appeal. And the NFLPA has been trying to get every single player to always appeal every punishment.

Also there is the possibility that the NFL won't punish him until after his legal matter is complete... and no one knows for sure when that will be.

Is there another player who's fired a gun and got suspended? Just wondering if their is another suspension we can fairly compare Quarless possible suspension too. There was Plaxico Burress, but I think Burress got much much higher charges put up against him and Miami charges were rather light in comparison.
