Doesnt matter if others have been asked inappropriate questions if its wrong to ask and they chose not to speak on it doesnt make it right. We traded two draft picks and a lot more money for a player with much more character concern than Dez Bryant and its not even close chracter wise. So should we have passed on him
Actually, not even close.
Dez Bryant has already had multiple run ins with the LAW here in Dallas.
On top of that, Jerra has also:
1)Assigned a permanent "Big Brother" to keep his a$$ out of the news, jail and other. That doesn't even seem to be working.
2)Paid off a HUGE debt that Bryant ran up on Jewelry right after getting into the NFL. He spent 100,000s of dollars on jewelry that he didn't have the money to pay for.
I'm telling you, there is already lots of really negative talk in regards to Dez Bryant here in Dallas.
THESE are the things that Ireland was prying into. For that matter, nobody outside the circle even knows the entire story of why he didn't play his last season at OSU. Good chance that the things that Ireland was probing for were directly related to that.
I'm not saying the questions were morally correct or not. Not something I would ask (And no, they don't ask you that verbatim on a DOD Top Secret clearance, I can personally assure you of that), but lets not act like Ireland is alone in this. Every FO is looking deep into something they are possibly going to be spending MILLIONS of dollars on. I would to. Its referred to as ROI. Tough to get a "Return On Investment" if that investment is behind bars.....
