    Jesus, is there a first round prospect without some sort of baggage?

    That whole article is very troubling. A pound of pot? An assault of a girlfriend? That article alone, if it took place while he was in the NFL, would result in him being suspended a full year.

    I don't know much about him otherwise, but if he wants to have a career, I hope he turns it around. Otherwise, he'll be in prison.

    He could be another Dez Bryant. On the field.

    Agree. Trying to trade back. We're in no man's land.

    Latest on LSU OL La'el Collins, wanted for questioning (though not suspect yet) in shooting death of pregnant woman

    Hope this is true. I don't believe it's a smokescreen I think there is legit interest. I think McNair gives the OK last second. I have been saying this kid is the offensive weapon we need.

    If the past has taught me anything, 2 or 3 of the "Texans will definitely draft him if he's available" prospects will fall to 16, and we'll find out that we were looking at someone else entirely.

    Agree. I think it's going to be a non sexy pick. Fans expect WR. Texans will draft Offensive Line or 2nd round type of player.

    Not good for us or our division if they use the picks right:

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Browns offer two 1st-round picks to Titans for No. 2 overall selection, where they would plan to take Marcus Mariota.

    I seriously don't trust anything that is "reported" within a week of the draft.

    I don't like Mariota's personality or lack of experience in a pro style offense.

    Wouldn't trust Jameis Winston with my football team, but you know he is going to be really good.

    Winston will go number one overall.

    Whoever takes Mariota will regret it.
