Yep, we're the only ones who do this.

Good fricking grief.

What draft grade did the NFL give him before he declared?

His freshman year he was considered to be the next elite LSU DT. He was talked about the same way we now talk about Chris Jones and A'Shawn Robinson. How did he go from that to declaring for the draft his junior year and going undrafted? Was he overrated as a freshman or did he get lazy and stop developing?



He peaked early. He flashed brilliance every now and then but overall just inconsistent and sloppy.

Tested positive for pot before the draft. Shows an obvious problem with will power, motivation and decision-making.

Also spoke about Russell Shepard's mentoring influence and how much he respected him. Shep was a polarizing influence in the lockerroom, no matter how much polish he had on Twitter and in the media.

All I can say is best of luck to Freak. I hope that he can maximize his enormous potential at the next level, because he looked like the sports version of Matthew McConaghey's movie "Failure To Launch" while he was here.
