They flat out said he is the best RB in the draft and although noting the issue also said we did our homework on Mixon. They even noted the number of interviews we did and such.
Of course they mentioned him being a good football player. What choice did they have? The tape doesn't lie. It was the snide remarks about it not being surprising the bengals were the ones that drafted him. It's the fact that mayock wouldn't even put the kid on his board, basically acting like he didn't exist. He didn't do that to Brantley. Did you hear any remarks about the browns organization taking a chance on Brantley? I'll help, the answer is no.
Huge difference in the way two very similar situations are being handled by the media.
