Brandon Marshall has suspension cut to 1 game

Broncos star wide receiver Brandon Marshall won his appeal against the NFL and got his suspension reduced from 3 games to only 1. Marshall met with league commissioner
Roger Goodell in New York on Tuesday. Goodell had orginally said that the 3 games suspension would be reduced to 2 if Marshall kept in touch with a counselor and stayed out of trouble. The suspension originally stemmed from a domestic violence charge. Marshall also had a DUI charge and lacerated his arm wrestling with a family member this off season.

Fantasy Impact: Okay, so Brandon Marshall is freaking crazy. Who cares? Who doesn't beat up their girlfriends, drive around drunk and put their arms through televisions during quality family time? Oh wait, normal people. Anyway, I'll take crazy it he puts up 100 catches and scores 10 times or so. Marshall fell in most drafts because of the suspension. If you got him in the 4th or 5th round consider it a steal. Paired with a QB who is ready to breakout (Cutler) makes Marshall a # 1 wide out this coming season.
