Win, Lose, or Draw - I hope we do it with High Character Guys
#1
That's a wish I have. In Marvin's tenure, how many guys did we pickup that were high draft picks that got waived because of a gun charge or repeated run ins with the law? Yeah as a portion of the roster, it was a small percentage, but those type of guys generally are hard to control. MB was even called the Redeemer, I think by himself.

We saw it on display in the Pittsburgh playoff game meltdown with Burfict and Jones.

I will say that Burfict has not had legal issues, but he had A LOT of personal fouls in college and I believe he punched a teammate.

We've brought in the Tank Johnsons, the Chris Henry's who were waived and resigned numerous times, the Cedric Benson's, the Adam Jones.

We even signed that guy that Brandon Joiner who was sentenced to jail for 3 years.

We tend to think that we're getting an awesome discount on players, but it ends up undermining us long-term.

Time to go with high character guys...
