that info

word. i've NEVER heard anyone say he's a thug at all....dfresh apparently said his friend works for the niners (9ers offseason thread)and that's what they said. i don't think it's true, cuz he never comes across as a thug in any way, shape or form with his play or even his interviews.

That's good to hear, I didn't really believe it either.
One of my boys at Cal said he's a cool dude

But in todays age of the NFL with Pacman Jones, Tank Johnson, etc, team are EXTRA careful with the guys they select.
Case in point, the Falcons taking Matt Ryan over Glenn Dorsey

 

[gunna get it]

Whoever dfrsh partna is who said that did themselves a disservice with that whopper.

Desean knows the entire nfl process. Better than he knows his course load at cal.

That's some horse ++#* information

 

[pac10ownssec]

that soft $*% @*$*% trying to act like a thug

Why do you think so?

I think they are the same person except Johnson is faster. They both have the same issues.

Chris Johnson's got a tin can where his heart is supposed to be, too?

Well played sir...

let me rephrase.

They are the same player except Johnson is faster and has more heart

Doesn't his brother follow him around shooting a documentary on Desean's life (or college career?).

The new Ocho Cinco

 

[CP1708]

Well, with all the Wolverines we just drafted it's safe to say that the Dolphins next loss will be to Applaichian St.

Overall I guess I'm happy and I know what Bill is doing, but we have no real WR's, and average at best CB's, and that's being kind. But we dohave a ton of size and girth now, I guess speed will come in the next couple drafts. Hope it works.

Just what the Cowboys need in the locker room

Another player withsome character issues....
Regarding why Bowman probably wasn't drafted though, as Nowitness said, he got arrested for possession again early April.

No sir

u think ginn was the better pure WR in college then jackson Truth?

 

[N41D]

I took this from the Cowboys offseason thread...



Tashard

 

[TheGift23]

 

[thetruth03]

Yea i like Ginn over Jackson coming outta school..

Ginn aint soft.. and is more of a threat at Wideout and Returning kicks.. Ginn has much more upside IMO

But jackson is being put in a MUCH better situation than ginn.. a team that will win more than 1 game.. So we'll see..

 

[kiddin like jason]

Vikings | Reynaud signs with team

Josh Buchanan, of NFLDraftBible.com, reports the MinnesotaVikings have signed undrafted rookie free-agent WR Darius Reynaud (West Virginia). Terms of the dealwere not disclosed.

 

[10508 cardo jr ln]

I went to High School with Tashard Choice (1 year)

to bad he had to become a Cowgirl, but I bet he's gonna eventually get alot of touches.

speaking of....funny story on Jimmy Williams of the Falcons...

during all the pre-draft routines, he was in an interview w. Joe Gibbs and his phone rang. He told Gibbs to hold on while he took the call RIGHT THERE in hisoffice.

@ making Gibbs wait. Needless to say, Williams wasn't drafted by the Skins....

This is the same dude who bought a 200k Lambo under the impression he was gonna be a first round pick....Deangelo Hall got in his head LOL



Maybe it was just me, but I didn't like how DeSean Jackson threw on his shades as soon as he got drafted...maybe he was hiding the tears but if not, itlooked like he was being a primadonna.

naw. Jack He dont be acting hollywood like that.. them USC boys swear they starring all in movies...

I know where your trying to go.. kinda.. but what are you talking about? Falcons took ryan over dorsey because they felt they needed to draft a QBthat high.. Dorsey has always been known as a mature leader.. What character issues are you speaking of?

again at saying that Jack was acting like a "thug" at hisinterviews.. and thats why frisco aint pick him..

 

[marleysprotege]

he looked like a fake #@@ TI ... 145 and your out of his weight class lol

 

[gunna get it]

Nowitness, Tashard gave the Pre game speech every week at Ga Tech, and every one was like that and better.

I had them on DVD during College season but had to give them back. they showed them all on Chan Gaileys coaching show.

I think I even commented on it in the old NCAA thread.

he looked like a fake #@@ TI ... 145 and your out of his weight class lol

TI still might be bigger than DesSean

But like someone said durin the draft Desean & Devin Thomas were seperated at birth

and

@ Shannon Avy, now he all aboard the Mayo wagon

 

[whutizit]

Mayo will be a beast in the league...dude has knack for the ball


has anyone signed Highsmith??? he was all ver the field at LSU

 

[TheGift23]

 

[gunna get it]

He killed it
