now, i dont have a lot of data on this but i will use justin houston as an example.

hell, i dont even recall why he had 'character issues', but look what hes done in the league.

he would have been a first rounder but..

my point is this:

not that this is true but:

its almost like nfl owners salivate at high value players that make mistakes.

maybe this is a reason collins is being selective as to how he is marketed while being innocent until proven guilty.

then again, winston has more issues than most and he went first.

(i will predict that winston will fail worse than rg3, and i think rg3 will rebound.)

but i digress.

on average, really good players that make mistakes, dictated by others, are acquired for pennies on the dollar. and the owners love this part of the game.
