Not a good look for him. It'll raise concerns about character issues.

 

[SweetT]

What? Is this a first?

Depending on what happened this plus his injury could cause him to slide to the middle of the round.

 

[Saints 318]

let him drop to us

 

[CRESS_137]

great moment to have a meltdown. would be interested to know the particulars about this, but really big red flag.

He could slide well as 11. 6-0, 229 pound middle linebackers who can't run before the draft don't go high in the first round.

Who dat hospital worker?

Wait, hospital staff, or team appointed training staff? If it's hospital staff then that's bad, but if it's the training staff, those are usually hospital employees that are hired by the team, even worse a look. I have a good friend who was on the medical staff for the Saints for a few years (through Oschner) and I have met most of the guys on our training staff, they are good guys. This is an issue of a kid acting like a kid around adults.

I'd like to know what in the world they were arguing about. Especially for it to get so bad that he got sent home. That's insane. Every year the craziest stuff happens with at least 1 top draft pick. You couldn't even make this stuff up.

Probably herpes.

Pfft. Wow.

Okay. Just have all my favorite prospects turn out to be huge children.

 

[dutar76]

Well, we don't need that now do we? Jared Davis anyone?

Wait, hospital staff, or team appointed training staff? If it's hospital staff then so be it, but if it's the training staff, those are usually hospital employees anyway, but yeah, even worse a look. Have a good friend who was on the medical staff for the Saints for a few years (through Oschner) our training staff (like most in the league according to him), are good guys. This is an issue of a kid acting like a kid around adults.

No disrespect, but I disagree. I see it more as an adult acting like a kid. We've already seen this rerun. His name was Galette.

He's got a shoulder. There's an outside chance that they wouldn't clear him the way Bama doctors would to compete tomorrow and he flipped out.

Which could work to his benefit. I mean, on D coaches probably love a player with aggressive passion.

...but if he was just a jerk for no good reason? Yeah, no. Still sort of want though. Need more details.
