Re: 2014 NFL Draft Chatter
I do hope he'll have success, but let's be fair. He was a mid-round pick at best, who followed it up with a terrible combine.
I'm not sure it's fair to say that 31 teams passed on him for being gay.
Will the Rams be a terrible organization if they cut him before he gets to play a snap?
Or maybe, it's just because he's a tweener who might not be worth a roster spot, and who brings with him a media circus that adds a load of distraction to a team trying to win games.
I'm glad he was drafted. I hope he makes it. And I'm sure there were some teams that never even included him on their boards because of who he finds attractive. But I'm not ready to throw every other organization under the bus for making choices that may have simply been best for their football team.
