Callaway Cited for Marijuana Possession

Plant foot... probably a fascia strain. To be expected after putting in tons of work during the draft then resting. Don't see him pulling up like it's a hammy or anything.

I think this is going to be a great pick, saw an interview with the kid yesterday, he seemed soft spoken and ready to put the past behind him. Grew up in rough part of Miami, single Mom ... that whole deal ... but never got into trouble until he got to college. The sexual assault count did not stick. Apparantly he smoked a lot of weed in college and used a stolen credit card to set up an account at the book store. I don't see anything he can't grow out of ... seems like an angel compared to Randy Moss at that age.
I see him as our 4th receiver, our home run hitter off the bench this year and starting punt and kick returner. Could be Gordons replacement as the #1 down the road.

I have a personal theory that revolves around over training and types of compound lifting along with adding/cutting weight and certain other things. Then combined with periods of inactive rest that is leading to more camp injuries. Essentially putting the body through manic highs and lows, in essence.

no comparison between him and moss. Moss was 100000x 'better' from a personal conduct standpoint.
this is a guy who literally has 5 red flags(he actually got out of the sexual assault charge because he stated he was too stoned). Worse than this though, his 'issues' don't pertain to just off the field. Everyone at UF stated he was unfocused and a problem attitude on the field with the team.

I'm familiar with Calloway. Perhaps you're not familiar with Moss?
Same type of stuff ... arrest, failed drug test, dating violence ... he turned out OK.
Glad Dorsey has the balls to take a chance on a young kid with some troubles. Sometimes maturity happens and you've got a good player on your hands.

I'll cross my fingers and hope the guy doesn't screw up again. If he doesn't we've landed a very talented player on the cheap. I do Wonder, however, how you can have in unintentionally diluted sample? Who cares if you don't own up to it if you pretend you didn't know. That seems like something you have to plan.

umm no....the difference is randy moss had severe difficulties at the end of high high school career and then after high school, but after he actually got enrolled at marshall he was a great teammate for two years who was super focused on the field for two straight years in college.
Whereas Calloway...his problems just continued to get worse after he arrived at florida and he didnt have any period where he wasnt a problem since coming to florida. He's actively continued to head in the wrong direction.
Very very different than the moss situation.

I'll take that chance with a 4th round pick. You can always cut him.

Unlike Moss, who continued his troubled ways in the NFL (failed drug test, traffic incident, dating violence, dickish ways) I don't think Calloway has that luxury as a 4th round pick and will become exactly what we need on and off the field. Just a hunch ... I think Dorsey vetted this pick well, again, if not ... a 4th rounder is low risk.

Exactly Z, Callaway will not get the slack Manziel got as a first round pick. Dorsey likely told him- one misstep, and you're going to be pumping gas or greeting folks at Wal-Mart for a living.

but it seems he may be worth the risk....

Callaway resets dumbass mode and he is the steal of the draft. If he doesn't, he was a 4th round pick. Its as simple as that. With the new vet additions the locker room will be where he lives and dies. A place where we won't hear anything about. Its been over a week since the draft and we have who we have. We cant control what these guys do. Lets get some positivity in this mofo.

For chrissakes, what the hell else would he say?
That said, I wish him luck.

I fail to see how that statement benefited Christ.
That said, welcome.
