This ruins a lot. We get this shit bag primadona and the Steelers get a gamer in Wilson. We screwed the pooch here

So Saban questions Mims' character over a bum ankle, but blames fans for his immature jackass? Seems legit.

I hear Saban blames that lady and her dog for the Ruggs incident

Agree. Someone better get this moron under control. FAST. Damn sure don't need another Pacman on offense.

[Clark W Griswold]

Looks like they stormed the field and she was recording with her phone so he kind of clothes lined her/tried to knock phone down
Not a Mixon type punch but also not a mature reaction. Showed immaturity but hopefully he’s learned from that and has matured.

[Goalpost]

That is a shame he has flags. His film looks promising.

Have you actually seen Burton play? He’s better than all of them.

I didn't see the selection but I have read that Saban wasn't excited about this pick, either. After a brief pause, he said Burton was "emotionally immature" and seemed pretty flat about him being selected. This is secondhand information, so take it for what it is worth. Maybe someone else saw him comment on Burton and can confirm or deny.

Franklin is different type player , bigger more contest type player, Wilson and Burton very similar player

Not at all defending him, as nobody should be touched, but it looks like he stuck his arm out and like stroked her hair lol, didn't look like a punch or anything at all.

Doing stupid shit that he shouldn't be doing.

I think some of you guys wear a boner for anyone Pittsburgh drafts.

I think the Bengals had some inside info from TJ to help us with this pick.. i like that he is working with him...

[Au165]

I wonder if TJ’s tie to him is what got the team over the red flags. TJ does train a lot of the elite WRs now so his word carries weight.

I hate the girl punching part first and foremost, but the "thinking he had arrived" part is extremely concerning from a football standpoint.  I hate assholes like that.  He's got a hell of a lot to prove here.

Wilson is a really solid WR. I thought the Bengals would take him honestly.

Mike Brown was dead center in the war room yesterday.  This pick reeks of something he would do. 
I don't like it.

I think Burrow and Chase are strong enough leaders that they'll make sure he knows that they won't put up with any shit.

[samhain]

Wilson will be Hines Ward 2.0 for the next 10 years and we have to eat it for this douche bag.

This is foretold and will continue to plague us.

I’ll admit I wasn’t aware of the temper concerns, but I like what I see on the field from Burton. He looks very close to pro ready. Wouldn’t mind a project like mccaffrey later.
