Great post, but for the sake of playing devils advocate you could argue that Fred Smoot has character concerns but he's been a model citizen ever since he came back. We also don't know how Kelly's character will shape up, but if anything if he ends up having character problems then they'll be more of the Chad Johnson variety as opposed to the Chris Henry variety.

Other then that I can't really think of anyone. Ironically the guy we cut for Mathis, Mapu was a pretty good Tackle at Tennessee with excellent character, I mean the guy took two years off from football to do a church mission. Wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see him make the final roster.

Also as far as Thrash is concerned, Mix already supplanted him as the teams #3 receiver. He worked with the starters during mini-camp while everyone else (Kelly, Thomas, Thrash) worked with the second team. I mean it's probably just a way of getting Thomas and Kelly to earn their stripes, but if the depth chart was released today then Mix would be the #3 reciever.
