i know it has to do with some off the feild problems but i dont know what it was. Do you?
 
Draft Scout has him ranked 14th. If he is falling, he isn't falling far.
 
Unlike last drafts, this season there was a depth availability of great RB during free agency/trading period, so RB isn't as needed as in past drafts.
By the other hand, on December, Marshawn Lynch's former girlfriend accused him of sexual assault, event that linked to actual guarding of good profile on NFL players, is leading on drooping his drafting value for most of teams.
Just think about it, even he's the second on RB listed for the drafts, the number one, Adrian Peterson may be picked as high as #20 according to some mocks. Ok, i know AP may be taken on the top 5 of the draft, but hardly that may implicates that ML will go on the top 15.
 
5'11 217 isnt big?

It is, and 5/8, 247 is even bigger, which is what Nate Ilaoa from Hawai'i is, and I am an advocate for drafting the guy in the 7th round. He runs a 4.7 40, which sounds damn good for a guy that big, and imagine Ronnie Brown pounding on offenses all the way down the field and then he needs a breather and THIS guy comes in. Or even on goal line and short yardage 3rd downs this kid would be nasty.

Back on topic, I heard Marshawn is accused of sexually assaulting his ex-GF, which is prolly only coming to light not that he is set to make millions and she knows she isn't with him anymore to spend it, so a nice lawsuit settled out of court should do it :rolleyes2

i watched him alot this year. he was fun as hell to watch. wouldnt hurt to bring him in with a 7th or undrafted FA.

At least SOMEONE knows who I'm talking about :lol:. I'd love it man. Like with our last pick in the 7th, what is there to lose?
 
he definately wont fall that far

IDK, he's not very athletic and not a big play threat, plus he has had some injury problems, so a lot of teams could pass. I'd even be willing to snag him in round 6 though "just in case", because I think this kid is a BEAST.
 
He has other off field issues with regards the people he runs with and his inability to cut them adrift. As one scout said:

"I don't worry about him on the field. It's off the field that I worry about. Nagged by injuries and behavioral questions. I think he's just kind of a pain in the (expletive). Nothing real bad but you're just getting a different type of guy. You just have to know there's some ugly things there. He's a different type of bird. You've got to deal with that. He's got that group of friends that aren't going away."

Dude, do not make light of a serious issue. What if Marshawn did force himself on his girl when she did not want anything to do with him? Could we still make light of that?

Could care less about the guy. He is not coming to Miami. And if he really did what he is accused of, spit on him.....



**BTW, 5'11"/217 is not a big runningback. That's Cadillac's size. Ronnie Brown (6'/232) is a big runningback.
