I'm a lot more comfortable about signing players with character issues when there's been such an emphasis on signing high character and high motor guys and all those team captains who will hold them accountable in the dressing room. See also Shelvin with his flags about his weight and focus who I feel a lot better about with Burrow and Chase on his case and keeping him on the straight and narrow (to the extent 350lbs guys do narrow).

Plus with Pooka he's an UDFA: he steps out of line and he's gone.
