Being praised personally and professionally in NY. Meh. Personally I still think he sucks but I guess we'll see. IMO no matter what the Jets think he is too small. Did not know about his personal struggles, however I do believe this article glosses over some immaturity and work ethic problems early on (and IMO regardless of what anyone else says existed to the moment he checked in at 228 this summer).
Bottom line is the guy was given every chance, over $14M, and 3 years to figure it out here. In the end he still didn't have a clue and was 228lbs. He's a glorified blitzing CB now basically. Congratulations.
