He could be the best player ever taken in the Supplimental draft.
anyone can sound like they're not a thug for five whole minutes, especially with money riding on it. Lawerence Phillips proved that talent isn't enough and that its easy to get burned by ignoring the inherent problems a guy might have. and being the #1 HIGH SCHOOL player means nearly nothing in the NFL. lots of players rise and fall in college, and he would have had that chance too, if he hadn't blown it.
