So the biggest knocks against Tunsil are that he smokes weed and defends his mom from an abusive husband? Yeah... nobody draft that guy!

These morons have to get Tunsil out of there. Seems like every once and a while they show a humiliated kid after each time he doesn't get picked.

If he passed a drug test, then he's fine. Passing on him because he smoked a while ago, is dumb.

BTW, are the Browns pulling a Hinkie/Sixers or what?

He has had quite a few off field issues in general though. Not saying it is exactly why but I can see where teams might get scared taking him thinking he will get suspended a few time.

Tunsil was falling out of favor before the video tonight. His upside is huge but he still needs work so with character concerns it's easy to see why some teams would be hesitant to select him. Him & Robert Nkemdiche were really good friends together at Ole Miss both of them got in a lot trouble there over the years.

This is completely correct. There was even talk out there well before tonight that Tunsil never actually fell and was much more highly thought of in the draftnik community than the NFL.

Nkemdiche could be even more of a steal too. Crazily talented athlete.

Apple has horrendous ball skills. From my understanding of what they want in CBs, I was thinking William Jackson.

Smoke pot in college, plummet with commentators ripping your character. Rape a girl and go first overall and not a peep by the draftniks.

Yea I think Josh Gordon thought the same thing....

Again, whatever anyone thinks about it, it is illegal in the NFL. If caught, you get suspended. That isn't changing. I would of course take him and try to work on his issues (which he seems to have a few), but I can see why teams are scared.

Exactly, there's this weird stigma against marijuana that's totally unwarranted.

Its honestly ridiculous that people don't bat an eye at recreational drinking, but marijuana, which isn't even in the same stratosphere in terms of the dangers surrounding it, is looked at as a problem.
