NFL Rookie News: Rookie DT Lowell Lotulelei Retires; Christian Kirk Arrested For Throwing Rocks @ A Golf Tourney

It's the offseason, and things happen.

One of these things happens to include a certain family member of a former Carolina Panther. Lowell Lotulelei - a UDFA rookie - apparently retired after the Broncos waived him. 

In all frankness, I'm surprised. I think he could be a decent run-stuffer like his brother. I guess things aren't working out.

In other news, former Carolina mocked WR Christian Kirk also was arrested earlier this year. Apparently, this info was just made public, and the Cardinals were aware of it pre-draft. Basically, he acted like any other guy at the Phoenix Open, got drunk, and trashed the place.

https://www.azcentral.com/story/sports/nfl/cardinals/2018/05/14/arizona-cardinals-christian-kirk-arrested-charged-disorderly-conduct-phoenix-open/609474002/

Kirk and some friends were seen throwing rocks at cars outside the golf tournament on Feb. 3. He was charged with disorderly conduct and proper damage and the case is pending.

...

In post-draft press conferences, General Manager Steve Keim said the Cardinals paid special attention this year to character when drafting players. There were no reports of Kirk ever getting into trouble in high school or college.

New coach Steve Wilks has said several times that he wants players who possess the right DNA.

“We don’t want a bunch of choir boys, I’m not saying that,” Wilks said recently. “But we want to make sure we got quality football players coming into the building. We’re not going to worry about getting a phone call in the middle of the morning that someone out in Scottsdale is doing something crazy.”

I guess Christian Kirk didn't raise that many red flags despite the arrest. We'll see if it works out.

Again, an NFL player is arrested every 7 days.  The new owner has a chance to shock the world and put our Super Bowl efforts into overdrive by resigning our franchise DE to the horror of the other 31 and hypocrites everywhere.

Deandre Hopkins covered a hotel room in his own poo right before the draft. Still went first round and has had a good career.

You’ve clearly never been to the Phoenix Open before. There is WAY worse going on there than throwing rocks

Yet the man spent at least the entire day yesterday on the right side of ESPN’s main page as the very “top headline”-HE (his June fight opponent) still draws that interest.  And of course the uninformed still make up the vast majority.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By jb2288 · Posted

      agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it.

      By frankw · Posted

      I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
