Dear Mike Mayock

How was Mayock supposed to know Clemmings would have a serious medical issue that scared teams off to this extent?

It isn't like Clemmings is falling because of talent.  He was a flawed prospect, but he was a 1st or 2nd round prospect in this draft.  Medical is just putting teams off and must have been a lot serious than everyone thought before the draft as it isn't like he was the only one mocking him in the 1st.

Forget the injury deal with clemmings for a second. Maycock first list had clemming as the #1, few weeks pass there's the senior bowl. Clem was beatin by everyone, EVERYONE. Maycock kept him there for weeks afterwards, even up til the combine. Then he moved him down to like 3rd after the combine, still waaay too high. Just recently he moved to 5th.

He knows about injurys, he stated it plenty of times in his grading system. It is a impossible task to correctly grade 1,000 some players in his defense. Still he fell off a lot this year in my eyes.

These guys are making educated guesses just to fill space. Nothing more.

I really wish more people knew that. It's just a fun thing to do to pass time in the offseason. Weird when you read a mock draft online and fans make death threats. Like chill

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
