Andre showed up at the combine 7 lbs. over his playing weight and left the combine early. T'V did neither of those things. T'V showed up at the exact same weight he played at and won all the awards.

Even with his "weight problem" Andre had the best NFL career of any of his "in-shape" contemporaries. It's really not worth debating, some will see T'V at 366 and consider it a problem; but I'm willing to guess it'll be a bigger problem for opposing O-linemen. 

It does appear the kid's not too bright if he did drink and drive this close to the biggest day of his live, but I don't see the weight problem or lack of work ethic others see. 

Andre was 332 at the Combine and the 325 he weighed in at for his Pro Day was reportedly the lightest he'd been in 3 years.  Listed weight and actual playing weight are two different things.

It's an issue if the team culture is built around accountability.  It's also an issue if a players conditioning is so bad that despite being subbed heavily,they're sitting on the sidelines in obvious situations where they should be in the game during the biggest game of their life because of it.  That's my opinion.
