If you think "Catfish Gate" is the cause of this, then you haven't been paying attention. The media (Kiper) pumped him up as a potential #1 overall and some (yourself) took the bait. Anyone who paid attention knew that A.) an ILB is the stupidest thing ever at #1 and B.) Te'o's stock was inflated due to this Heisman run and Kiper inflation. Hell, I said this before catfish gate.
Scouts have come out and said that his stock isn't falling, it's the same place it's always been (even before he ran the 3rd slowest 40 of all ILBs). Nice to see NFL personnel men agree w/ my thoughts before catfish gate. I watched Te'o all year, he's not a special player.

I'll gladly hold you to your "steal of the draft" if he goes after 25 prediction. That's just nonsense.
