that's just pathetic (or oathetic as the case may be).

I guess he hasn't run out of drug money yet.

Their last 5 First round picks:

Blaine Gabbert: Ouch
Justin Blackmon: Ouch, only played 1 season. Now most likely banned from the NFL
Luke Joeckel: Considered a huge disappointment, and rated as the 67th worst tackle in the league
Blake Bortles: Unkown
Dante Fowler, Jr.: Tore ACL at first practice

After Fowler was hurt I joked that I wouldn't trade for the Jags 1st round pick as it seems to be seriously jinxed. I was only half kidding

I don't think the NFL would throw Blackmon's livelihood away because of those things he's done. Longer suspension yes, but not a ban.

It's amazing how someone can be so talented on the field, and so stupid off of it.

I don't think addiction issues has anything to do with intelligence.

Disagree, but I understand what you mean.

67th worst or 67th best?
big difference

This is why you don't draft a guy like DGB in the first round. Evidently, NFL GM's agreed with me on that one. One of the few I got right.

I also think Gregory was a waste of a 2nd round pick, but I'm glad Dallas took that bullet and didn't tempt us with it.

:lol:

Because one guy is a moron that means all players with a failed drug test in their lifetimes are bound to do the exact same stuff right?

My first 2 picks for the WeedFL. I'd watch it. Through red eyes of course.

That'd be a huge one for sure. It's just so sad that they can't seem to beat their personal demons, if the price is right though.....
