ESPN shows 85% of leagues still have a team that owns him. As if the child abuse wasn't bad enough, now he's using charity money to have sex with escorts with his underage brother in the room. 0% chance he returns

Some leagues allow keepers. It's why I can't and wont drop him.

About 85% of all leagues are family leagues or other uncompetitive leagues where people don't care. I don't think anybody that would be reading this board is in a league that someone still has AP on their roster. *edit other than keeper leagues, but they make up a small % of leagues.

At this point, he will need some sort of full on rehab for PR to be able to play again. I mean it's getting bad.

I still have him. It is hard to part with your #1 pick though.

The charity scandal will have no affect on whether he plays or not. It's from years ago. basically some family members weren't doing a good job running the charity so an outside professional was brought in to clean things up. It really didn't even involve AD.

And I'm in a keeper league with a deep bench so I'm definitely not dropping him.

Here's a link explains the investigation into the charity accusations:

In one league, 5 of my RBs spots are taken up by AP, Asiata, McKinnon, Spiller, and F Jax.

I'm 3-2. Likely finally dropping AP this week to grab Andre Williams or Brandon Oliver though. I held out as long as I could. I need the roster spot.

I'm sure most, if not all, of that 13% is from public league teams that were abandoned.

On Yahoo, I assume he's on the "can't cut list" which I think everyone drafted in the first 3 rounds of your draft end up on. Usually, players only come off of that list if officially suspended or placed on IR.

I'm with you. I lost Arian Foster early last year. I just can't deal with the thought of a healthy scratch from my first round pick. I thought Hardin would have taken care of this by now with a deferred adjudication and promise to take parenting classes. The not guilty plea is a little worrisome. If there's not going to be a plea and he's going to go to trial, that's probably not going to happen in 2014.

I'll drop AP when my kicker goes on bye.

I still have him.
I have Forte/Jennings/Bradshaw/Bush(who's pissing me off) that are doing well. and i can only have 5 RB.
I kept reading that we would know more early october when he has his hearing, that's why i hadn't dropped him yet. He's my first pick. Hard to drop your first pick.

Yea I just cant quit AP. But from an outsiders perspective, I should drop him. I am waiting on some official word that he is done for the year (even though he already pretty much is). I just have this pessimistic feeling that he will be reinstated around playoff time and I will be kicking myself for dropping him for someone I never used.
