It's fine to say that this incident is no big deal, but, in the case of Talib, it is not isolated. Remember, Goddell is punishing teams who keep troublemakers on the roster as well as players. So not only are the Bucs risking losing a first round draft pick, but also fincancial pentalties. Absolutely this hurts Talib's contract, both in terms of signing money and in terms of a potential behavior clause. The irony of it all is that it happened between teammates at the NFL rookie symposium, where they all go to learn how not to get into fights.
