Secondly, the Bengals are doing their due-diligence in seeing just who Mixon is character-wise in regards to past transgressions. The best way to do that is to meet with the young man face-to-face, and since he was not extended an invitation to the Combine, a personal meeting in Cincy was necessary (along with Pro-Day analysis). From that point on, the franchise can then make an educated decision on whether they want to draft him or not.
Yet, choosing not to scout him at all would be a disservice to the franchise, as the only information they would rely on would be second-hand accounts.
Walks in, broke four bones in her face, and just walked away. That's all the "second-hand" knowledge I need. Character-wise you're either capable of doing that or you're not. Might as well get Ray Rice on the team, too.
