Stealing from teammates. That's a character thing.

A ticket. I repeat, a ticket. You do realize 85% of NFL athletes use drugs, right? Just like college athletes, right? Just like a ton on this board, right? Drugs won't even be mentioned as an off the field concern when he goes to the NFL.

And guess what? Welker is a known commodity and producer in the league.
And, your point? My point was that players use drugs. Since he's a known commodity and producer, it makes it OK? BTW, he's not half the player he used to be. He will struggle to find work when the Denver Broncos release him after this season.

This honestly has nothing to do with me being a Georgia fan. It's not like I'm making irrational statements here. There have been plenty of threads on Marshall and the NFL and the VAST majority of your fanbase on here were of the same opinion.
What same opinion is that?

The opinions I see spread throughout is that he will be drafted as an athlete.

Doesn't have much to do with his character. He still did it.

I'm sure it won't be addressed in interviews at all.

My point is he's not a risk. It's easy to look past something like that when you're a guy like Welker vs a guy like Marshall. One is a pro bowler. The other is looking to get a shot at a position he's never played at a high level. Do you really not see the difference?

That he would go undrafted.

Is there a link you could provide with he 85% number? That seems very high but I honestly have never heard that figure stated as fact before. Was there a study or poll done to back that up? Would like to read it if so.
