did he have concerns coming into the league?

Don't remember, but that's not the point.

There are plenty of guys with known character questions, yet we still have folks who argue to sign guys like Josh Gordon, Justin Blackmon, heck even Titus Young.

As has been repeated many times, don't put yourself in the position of having to rely on someone who's known to be unreliable.

ahh, thought maybe he had some issues coming out.

I do agree thought that I think some people devalue the off the field issues.  When you are using a high draft pick I would think you would want to mitigate risk, especially when there is usually a 2nd option that you have rated fairly closely.

I hate the Falcons as much as the next guy, but this is ridiculous.

Ridley gets suspended for a year for a $1,500 bet, prompting Roger Goodell to say this poo:

"Your actions put the integrity of the game at risk, threatened to damage public confidence in professional football, and potentially undermined the reputations of your fellow players throughout the NFL."

What a hypocritical piece of poo. The NFL doesn't have any integrity to risk. I don't remember him ever coming out against any of the wife beaters or the drunk drivers or the owners getting hand jobs at massage parlors with a statement this strong.

Technically speaking they are still investigating the whole "Pay to lose" thing in Miami. An NFL player betting on games could be looked upon as along the same style since they could possibly be involved in fixing some of those bets and falling into that "risking the integrity of the game" category. Not saying Calvin WAS but I can see where the argument comes from.

      No, I'm starved for contention. If you can't see that and keep wanting to turn things like this back around on T-Mac, then you're just either being purposefully obtuse, or is a fan who is happy having 5-6 win seasons just because we're so used to the 3-4 win seasons and you like "just being better"

      You mean the guy who took over a franchise that hadn't had a losing season in the previous 4 seasons... who proceeded to get his team into the playoffs in 3 of his first 4 seasons, only to win 2 games in said playoffs, to then go on to having a 54-74 career record and never won another playoff game after those first two? Who then after being fired from that job, took over a team that was 30-18 in the 3 seasons before he got the job, got into the playoffs that first season, lost their first postseasons game, and then went on to have a 6-26 record over the next 2 seasons? You're literally proving my point by bringing up someone who's claim to fame is that quote. If you just play to win the game, you're never going to be a successful franchise.  You need to play to win the game while ALSO working to make your players better.  Having the former without the latter is a picture perfect recipe to become a stagnant franchise. That's how you work towards being a winning franchise who can contend in the postseason.  And sure, having a stagnant franchise that makes the playoffs every other season is better than what we currently are, but that's not what I strive for with our Panthers, I want to actually contend for championships in my lifetime.
