Also the Pats will definitely appeal and they MIGHT manager to get the punishments lessened to a degree, but not totally dropped.
The CBA is written in such a way that the commissioner basically has unilateral control to do whatever he wants. It will be incredibly difficult to get everything dropped. The only reason Rice's indefinite suspension was dropped was because they had already slapped him with the retardedly small 2 game suspension and they tried to basically undo it and re-suspend him for a longer period of time.
