TJJackson Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 The draft was all about high character guys, with almost every selection beign a guy noted for top intangibles, and the others with no real marks on them characterwise. Marvin White had an assault charge, but that was due to him defending his mother from his alcoholic father, or in other words, really and truly HIGH character.Today, hidden at the bottom of article (http://www.bengals.com/news/news.asp?story_id=6024) about the UDCFAs signed and an update on Eric Henderson, is the following lineAlso Wednesday, the Bengals waived rookie linebacker Jason Berryman of Iowa State.Isn't this the ex-con we signed the same day Marvin publicly announced the team would focus on character?Seems like this issue is getting action now, as opposed to the lip service it was given earlier this yearI invite comment....including any thoughts on the effect if any this might have on Mr Thurman and Mr Henry.

HoosierCat Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 Berryman didn't even make an active roster in NFLE...I believe he was on Cologne's developmental squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrod382 Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 I'm looking forward to McNeal getting cut. That's a big and easy step towards it right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregCook Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 I'm looking forward to McNeal getting cut. That's a big and easy step towards it right there.When I turn on a game, I don't really care to see a bunch of boy scouts hit each other. Nor do I want to see a game of felons, ex-cons and drug dealers go at it. Something in between is fine. Henry and Odell are on long term holiday, I hope all the rest play better and get a few more wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obeying the law has nothing to do with your ability to beat the hell out of someone on the field. Neither does a willingness to drive drunk and have relations with teenage hookers.
