'Teams are more comfortable with Joe Mixon's off field than Dalvin Cook's" -@nfldraftscout on #NFLDraftLive right now

FSU starting running back Dalvin Cook has been suspended indefinitely after being charged with misdemeanor battery, making him the second Seminole to be charged in connection with striking  a woman in two weeks.

Cook was allegedly involved in an incident with a woman on June 23 outside of a Tallahassee bar, Clydes & Costellos, according to a heavily redacted incident report obtained by the Sentinel. The woman, according to a separate probable cause affidavit compiled by the Tallahassee Police Department, had bruises and abrasions after refusing to give her phone number or go home with an FSU football player.

A probable cause affidavit stated one unidentified man approached the woman for her phone number and spoke about taking her home with him. She declined, stating she had a boyfriend. The man and a group of friends identified as five to seven FSU football players, including Cook, began to get into a heated argument with her. She told investigators a person got too close to her and she pushed him away, prompting a man she later identified as Cook to punch her multiple times in the face

Which one?  Joe wasn't proven guilty of anything.  Cook was at Florida State so you know how they "wipe those under the rug" there with a quickness.  

Referring to cook, yeah seems like a lot of charges got thrown out from that article. But if he's been trouble free the last couple years I could see teams looking past it

I think he got in trouble with some dogs for some poo as well.  Mixon besides the issue with the lady, has been fine since then.  So, yeah.  I can see why teams could think more negatively about Cook.

So it's OK to smash a girls face in on video but if you kneel in a nonviolent protest you get black balled?  The NFL, where outrage and morality are just slides on a marketing powerpoint presentation.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
