I hope he gets a shot someplace ...

No, just treating others to the same standards and treatment CJ got. All I meant was why waist a draft pick on someone who might be in trouble with the law frequently? I would welcome him if he has his "itshay" straight and makes the team. She may have come up with the story but in the "Pro Football Weekly Pro Prospects Preview" it says he was found guilty by jury of molestation, and statutory rape. He was sentenced to 10yrs on the molestation charge. A Supreme Court overturned the charge because it was proven it was consentual but he still got a yr jail sentence for a lesser offense but had already done a yr prior to the proceedings so they gave him time served. Unless I missed something. He's a criminal. Character police won't like him. Sorry.

I wonder if he has to register with the state for his offense due to it being a sex crime?
