I still don't understand this pick at all

We need to cut this dude.

Re: Glenn admits lying about suspension
 

Um, he's not even under contract yet. No cutting needed.

I'm guessing that the honest-to-the-bone Zorn is not gonna like this very much.

[I]"I'm trying to enjoy everything that happened Sunday with the draft," he said. "All of a sudden, I can't win for losing. I want to put this behind me and start clean in Washington and start playing football."[/I]

Well then admit why you were banned, and lol at the "All of a sudden, i can't win for losing". It must been pretty bad to wanna make up lies to a team that picked you high in the draft.

He was probably meat gazing in the locker rooms.

I wanted that LB from Miami Spencer Adkins but he went to Atlanta

This pick was a reach to start with. Then lying about a suspension? Thats what freakin 8 yr olds do. It sounded like a crappy suspension anyway, selling tickets to football games. Man I'm pissed, especially when we had the chance to get Meredeth or Robinson, but instead we took a chance on this clown.

Maybe I missed it, but I don't see where it says he lied to team officials. He admits to lying to reporters, and I couldn't care less about that. At this time, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt while also trusting that the Skins did their due diligence before the draft by looking into this matter.

{Yawn} Wake me up when one of picks does or says something exciting after the final cut.

The FO said that they specifically talked to Nebraska's coach about the issue. So, although we are in the dark about what he did, the FO is not.

I still dont understand this pick. I hope we love it in two years. And I hope your right.

Re: Glenn admits lying about suspension
 

"I didn't mean to confuse anyone." HA! Then why did you flat out lie? Would it have been so hard to say "it was a matter between Coach Pelini and myself, and it has been handled." I mean come on.

This pick was a head scratcher when we made it IMO. He's played all of 9 games at LB in his entire life, and he's obviously got character red flags. Now it looks worse obviously.

It's my understanding we didn't have any O-lineman rated as starters when we took Barnes in the 3rd. OK. I'll buy that. I'm cool with the Barnes pick. But you mean to tell me we didn't have any O-lineman rated higher than this dude in the 5th round??

Well, if the FO had drafted him without knowing the cause of the suspension, it would be flat out negligence. I don't think that's the issue. The issue is the way the kid handled it.

Re: Glenn admits lying about suspension
 

Does anyone know why we took him. Was he realy talented, was his coach a friend of our coaches, even he said he was shocked to be picked. When they took Montgomery it was Blaches friend that told him he was a steal. They must have had some info.
