It's almost like he's currently embroiled in a legal dispute and his mind his elsewhere.

If he's there in the second round you run to the podium. 

So..... what you're saying is that you want to draft a guy who is showing he can't get ready for the most important job interview of his life because he's too distracted by other things in his life.

And you want to go out and give him millions of dollars and expect him to then be able to keep his mind focused on football at that point?

Yea.... hard pass

I'd think he's a psychopath if he can go out there and perform at 100% when he's being investigated for a car crash that killed someone.

Each to their own though.

There is a huge difference between performing at 100% and being so out of shape that you literally can't finish the drills.  If he was just a bit sloppy out there and his times weren't great, sure, you could blame that on what's going on around him.

But putting on almost 10 lbs in 2 weeks, knowing what is at stake, and then being THAT out of shape, that's extreme.

I'm also someone who absolutely would fall apart mentally in his situation, so I'm not bashing him for that.  But if I was in his situation, with his NFL career on the line, I'd at least be in shape enough to finish the drills and/or be aware enough that I wouldn't be able to finish them and would come up with some other excuse as to why I couldn't work out.  Say you pulled a hamstring or twisted your ankle a few days ago in training, that's way better than not being able to finish the workout.

I just watch some of his pro-day........ its like since the combine hes been on the couch stress eating, boy.... he needs some agent damage control.

Im still in love, the story of my life....

The current red flags being made public are what has been on team boards for a while. It was one of the flags I was talking about after his warrant was issued.

I was actually joking.

 

There is 0% chance he falls to the 2nd round. Some contender in the late 1st would take him in a heartbeat.

 

What does his film say?

 

 

It says He's a Cowboy.

I could burn two zig zags and still move better than that.

Y’all are crazy. Take the man in the second round, if he’s there (which he won’t be). Do you know how easy it is to put on 9 pounds when you’re that big? The man has a lot going on, and with his tape, he doesn’t need to do anything but get medically examined. 
 

Some guys are just so good they can just turn it in when they want. Jalen Carter is I don’t have to work hard good.

multiple front defense with D. Brown and Burns and you all are too good to add the best D Lineman to come out in a decade. Pffffft
