As someone that has watched VERY little game film on him, I tend to agree with you based to the attitude and entitlement that the media presents with him. I’ve never met him. Could be totally wrong and I totally acknowledge that everything that I know about him has been filtered through people that are trying to paint a picture about him.
The case I heard against this is that negative reports stem from leaks from other teams that are trying to create a scenario where he drops in the draft. Big decision, like all draft pics, to make if you are the Bears.
