Is it because one is more talented than the other? Is it because one was a potential #1 draft pick prior to his incident and the other most thought was a bad choice to draft at all?

I am not just asking you, I am asking anyone who is now defending Mixon, but ready to throw Walton out of the NFL now.

Exactly how I see it.

Just because Walton isn't a 1200+ yard rusher doesn't me he's excluded from redemption.

What Mixon did was 100 times worse than batting a phone out of a hand or even smoking marijuana. What Walton did was absolutely stupid and he needs to have better control, but for a man like Mixon that was at a D1 school on scholarship that gets professional strength coaches to knock a girl out with a punch...that's more than just a dumb mistake. He should have been in jail for that.

Plus, what is redemption for Mixon? Is it staying out of trouble for 3-4 years? Then. Poof - What he did was magically erased.

Quality of a players play shouldn't weigh in on a standard. The standard is a standard. IF you waive Walton for this, then you have to waive Price, Atkins, Green, or any other Bengal that does this.

This reminds me of how people loved Burfict and when he did clearly dirty personal fouls they'd come on here and defend him and say that the refs were out to get him.

Walton was dumb and clearly wrong, but the Mixon incident is 100 times worse.
