and what are we supposed to do? Tie him to a cinder block and toss him off a bridge?

 

Why is the concept of innocent until proven guilty so god damn hard for our society when it is a Pilar of our foundation?!?!

 

Its despicable.

Not saying he's guilty, but NFL is a business and there's plenty of other guys to draft that won't get you a load of negative publicity. He did something dumb enough where the police had to file a report and refer case to sexual crimes unit whether woman is lying or not.

They are reporting he could go undrafted. I take him in the 5th and wait it out. If he is busted, so be it. But if not, Wow look at what you get for a low round pick.

It could be like La'el Collins where there isn't enough time to clear him before the draft so goes undrafted, then signs somewhere if/when cleared.

That is why I just take a flyer on him. If cleared cool, if not, meh

That extra fifth rounder doesn't seem so dumb now does it?! Whaley, Bills Rainman

Unless you really know for sure, I'd roll the dice with a 5th rounder all day long!

That's also why Collins' agent said Collins would sit out if he were taken after the third. As undrafted first-round talent, he stood to make more as a UDFA than a fifth-round pick.

DC, correct me if I am wrong, but I thought a player had to actually go undrafted to sit out and go back next year or sign as a UDFA?

I kinda wish we had tested their resolve on that.

This has to be in my mind. It was a huge story at the time and I remember people bring shocked that he went undrafted. Then, the whole thing blows over and the Cowboys get an embarassment of riches on their O-line.

i just don't see coach McD doing this ; against everything he stands for.

If he's cleared? sure ; if not cleared yet? no way we draft him

His threat was to not report if he was picked after the 3rd round. If the drafted player isn't signed, he's eligible for next year's draft

so we allow public opinion to dictate and overpower law?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yeah, that's pretty much Murika. Hands up, I give up.

Nobody's sending him to jail. Business decision not to spend a high pick on him and give him millions of dollars. Maybe next time he'll learn that if the girl you just met in an elevator is crazy enough to go to your room for a foursome she's crazy enough to go to the cops and make up a story.

Nobody's convicting him. Business decision not to spend high pick on him and give him millions of dollars. Maybe next time he'll be smarter a week before he strikes it rich. If she's crazy enough to go to your room for foursome after just meeting you on elevator, she's crazy enough to go to the cops and make up a story.
