Not as feverish about it, did not think the report out of St Louis did him any favors -- nm - Bloody Ice Oct 21, 19:10
or, you know, maybe he's just not good enough. -- nm - mafic Oct 21, 18:54 28
- Don't even start with that. He's SEC defensive player of the year. - MDH Oct 21, 18:55 27
  - L3. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 22, 04:18
  - Dallas would have taken anyone if they thought it would help their defense. They picked up, and are starting Rolando McClain. - Inigo Oct 21, 19:33
  - now TALK ABOUT ME -- nm - TEBOW Oct 21, 19:18
  - I realize you say you don't care who he played against, but of his 11.5 sacks, 9 came against Florida, Arkansas State, and Vanderbilt. Thats the JV of - crash davis Oct 21, 19:12 5
    - You make a good point with Jeffcoat. Didn't know that. Regardless whether "gay" was an issue it will affect people coming out - MDH Oct 21, 19:21 4
      - Jeffcoat is actual on the Redskins 53-man team right now, primarily due to their injury situation. - David Oct 21, 19:35 2
        
        We are talking professional defenses David. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 21, 19:36 1
        
        Heh. -- nm - MDH Oct 21, 19:38
      - I'll agree it looks bad. It shouldn't but it will. -- nm - crash davis Oct 21, 19:25
  - which doesn't mean he's good enough for the NFL. pre-draft he was ranked between 12th and 25th amongst defensive ends. - mafic Oct 21, 19:10
  - He's had 8 weeks to impress the team. If he hasn't done it by now, it's time to wonder about his talent. -- nm - David Oct 21, 19:07 1
    - (And I say that as a previously ardent supporter.) - David Oct 21, 19:07
  - history is full of college award winners who have bombed in the NFL, lets talk Heisman... -- nm - crash davis Oct 21, 19:00 8
    - They got chances. -- nm - MDH Oct 21, 19:01 7
      - Jason White says "oh?" -- nm - Reagen Oct 21, 19:04 6
        
        The brutal one is Eric Crouch. -- nm - David Oct 21, 19:31 2
        
        Crouch Recreation Design has a nice website though. -- nm - MDH Oct 21, 19:49
        
        That's the other guy I was trying to think of. -- nm - Reagen Oct 21, 19:47
        
        "If I don't get drafted in the first round, I ain't playing" -- nm - Charlie Ward Oct 21, 19:14 2
        
        I actually still laugh at him (having seen him play college bball) -- nm - MDH Oct 21, 19:22 1
        
        He gad a ten-fifteen year career in the Nba and can still remember his name. Point to Ward. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 21, 19:35
  - 3 others of which in the past 10 years have washed out of the NFL. -- nm - Reagen Oct 21, 18:59 5
    - Figure CFL will have a place for him. -- nm - Bloody Ice Oct 21, 19:00
    - None of which were drafted beyond the second round. -- nm - MDH Oct 21, 18:59 3
      - Meaning every Sec Def player of year was picked before mid second round. -- nm - MDH Oct 21, 19:00 2
        
        It is possible that the voters had a weak crop of results to choose from - Will Hunting Oct 21, 19:48
        
        best case he was considered third or fourth round, then he did badly on the combine. - mafic Oct 21, 19:13
