Having definitive mental health problems seems to be entirely speculative. 

He mostly just seemed very disgruntled with being on the Jags. 

I wouldn’t say entirely, Charlie Strong indicated he was having some issues and dealing with stuff.    

I only remember him talking about it because I had no clue Charlie was now with the Jags and was surprised he was there now

Urban Jacksonville is nice, a little rundown but it's nice.

Jacksonville is a poo hole of a town. Can't be great playing there. 

Many moons ago as our family was passing though Jacksonville to Disney land. Pops stopped to get gas and the local sheriff was there. Chatted him up, told my father not to stop if they saw a person in need - "KEEP DRIVING, no matter what". Seems the locals were setting up traps for people passing though, people laying in the street and broke down cars with upset women. Someone/family stops, group jumps out and gets 5 guns in their face then robbed...

The amount of work front offices and coaches do on these guys before the draft would definitely vet out any red flags, so the fact that both Fitt and Rhule were trying to make this happen should be all the confidence one needs.

For the cost? This was a great move. 

but what we got him for and the fact the Jags have been trying to unload him since this summer?  I think does kinda confirm there is at least something there.   

All season the #7 pick of the 2020 draft has been offered up for cheap (who has looked promising when he played)….there has to be red flags that teams are aware of for that to happen IMO.

Short ver- He did not want to play in Jax, at ALL. Near by family is hitting him hard for $$$(rumors). Urdoofus did not help the any issues CJ had, only made them worse.

I'm hearing the same. (Big grain of salt of course.) He's a reserved, quiet type of guy & wanted to get away from the hangers on.

Jacksonville does suck. It's a legit ugly city in my opinion and just all around mediocre. Worst major city in Florida by far.

Floridians don't consider Jacksonville or the Panhandle part of Florida. It is southern Georgia and Alabama.

Sounds like he may be an introvert that has trouble fitting in. One of his teammates was asked how they felt about him leaving and said “we’re not exactly shaken up about it.” And that he was a great player but just a weird/different guy. New environment will almost certainly be good for him initially. Long term who knows though.

Tbf they could only zoom call prospects that year. No face to face meetings. I think cj just wanted out of Jacksonville tho. And I’m a big proponent of players using their leverage to get out of shitty situations. It’s their work environment and careers.

I feel for him.  We had an offensive lineman…a great one, that had a horrible family like that.  Good guy, but his family were always around causing trouble, they were always pressuring him to leave school early….which remarkably, was the right choice, he was ready.  All they wanted was money.

He was drafted #9 in the first round, to…..Dallas.  His family ended up barred from the facilities, they stole from him, and he eventually cut them off.  Believe he gives them an allotted sum, no more.  
 

What a horrible thing to do to your child, if true.

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
