Flowers seems to be doing fine.

He had off the field issues with character and weed as well, and the Bengals probably feel pretty damn good that they took a chance on him and have, what seems to be, a quality starting LB. People get too caught up with 'character issues', IMO. Sure, you have guys that are complete idiots off the field...Pacman Jones comes to mind. But if Matheiu is shutting down routes and picking off passes in a Chiefs uniform, no one is going to remember that some pundit questioned his credibility as an individual off the field.

I like the guy at the right pick, but in all fairness it wasn't just pundits, it was pundits, his coach and the NCAA. There is no questions he got caught up with weed.. a bunch of times.

Think of it like this, if someone ever mentions the weed factor in us getting Justin Houston, it's used in a positive way because it made him able to fall to us. With Honey Badger, he either fails and is off the team, or we get to talk about him like we do about Houston. Either way, if you can get him at the top of the 5th, I think the choice is easy.

Oh I agree that he was disciplined by his School and by the NCAA, but any mention that he hasn't/can't change now is all speculation.

I don't think he makes it out of the 3rd. 4th at the absolute latest. Issues be damned.

It's funny because Arenas played in the SEC and he was a great punt return man.

Arenas was a good return man at Bama but hes just looked slow in the NFL... Hes not the same type of athlete as Mathieu

95% of all d backs are under 6' so get off the size BUT you have the old LSU issue they get to the pros and they get the money and get lazy.

Anyone ready for the Russel Wilson hype ship to sink?

I don't know ...

I get a sort of Pacman vibe from The Human Honey Badger.

I don't care about Highlight videos like in the OP



Check out the throw from Geno at the 2:18 mark

Better yet. The throw at 3:52

At the top of the second round, both of these guys should be available (possibly):

David Amerson, CB; NC State
6'3", 200 lbs.



Xavier Rhodes, CB; Florida State
6'2", 215 lbs.



Both would be superb opposite of Flowers. Both are excellent at press coverage.

[KCrockaholic]

Xavier Rhodes is frickin awesome.

Arenas already has match up problems, we don't need anymore short corners.
