In a move that likely INCREASES his fantasy football value for the upcoming season, Broncos WR Brandon Marshall was suspended for only 3 games on Wednesday.

The suspension could be seen as increasing his value, as rumors of a 4 to 8 game suspension were making the rounds–and Marshall can reduce it to just 2 games, if he undergoes counseling and takes other corrective actions.

Still, his lawyer isn’t happy with the suspension, and clearly doesn’t understand the issues that have come up recently around players getting in trouble in the NFL:

“There’s no basis for discipline,” Marshall’s lawyer, Harvey Steinberg, argued during an interview with The Associated Press on Tuesday night. “Mr. Marshall has not been convicted nor charged with a crime.”

At the same time, the lawyer does point out one of the more ridiculous conflicts of interest at league headquarters:

“I get to appeal to the guy who imposed the discipline,” Steinberg said.

So Der Kommissar can admit that he was too harsh, or he can deem himself just in deciding the suspension. Which way do you think he’ll lean?
