judman Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 The reporter who broke the story, from chicago (cannot remember name off top of my head) was on ESPN radio this afternoon. He gave Mallett's agent about 2 hours to respond before he released what he had. Two hours in 2011 is plenty of time I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1B4IDie Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 (edited) Did this guy bang the daughters of the 6 bankers that control the media. Why is he the whipping boy? Because he dared to leave Michigan in the lurch when Rich Rod came in and screwed everything up? Just imagine if Carr got to use Mallet. He'd probably be consensus #1 overall and called a Bigger, Stronger Tom Brady. Edited April 21, 2011 by Why So Serious? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ieatcrayonz Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Whatever dude...Did you even read the update? Your anti-Mallett campaign and million slow jokes are duly noted...I never said it was the Panthers Organization necessarily either...Nor did I say it was anything other than the feeling I get...But please continue to bash the Kid for no apparent reason other than he's the latest in the line of guys you incessantly mock around here... And I'm guessing even as slow as he is he could beat you in a foot race... I've met boxes of rocks that appear smarter than Mallet. If we pick him, I hope he succeeds. I just haven't seen too many slow, dumb, hotheads with substance abuse issues holding the Lombardi trophy that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 The reporter who broke the story, from chicago (cannot remember name off top of my head) was on ESPN radio this afternoon. He gave Mallett's agent about 2 hours to respond before he released what he had. Two hours in 2011 is plenty of time I would think. And what he had wasn't much. The Panthers have issued a statement on the matter, and it matches up with that of Mallett and his agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really doubt he was out partying the night before the biggest job interview of his life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Apparently after a late night on the town: per PFT For what it's worth, Mallett (through his agent) and the Panthers say it ain't so: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/04/20/agents-panthers-respond-to-mallett-report/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T master Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Apparently after a late night on the town: per PFT Wow that's kind of stupid on his part especially this time of year . The way bad news spreads tis is going to be like Plaxico just a bit lower in Mallets case . Talk about shooting your self in the foot . Who is that a picture of on your page ? It looks like a young Barrack O B juan smoking a fatty !! But he never inhaled !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Linen Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I'm not getting "The biggest interview of his lift" statement. A team that isn't going to draft him wants to meet with him a week before the draft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvermike Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I'm not getting "The biggest interview of his lift" statement. A team that isn't going to draft him wants to meet with him a week before the draft? I do agree that the Panthers are not likely to be his new home. But "the biggest interview of his life" really includes everything he does from the last play of the season to the time he hears his name out of the commissioner's lips. These things don't exist in a vacuum, and if he really did wake up too hungover for a meeting with a pro team, he's probably undraftable. Of course, that doesn't mean that he didn't really have food poisoning or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djsabres Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 matt jones, ryan mallet, jason peters was in trouble quite a bit but none since coming into the nfl...whats with this arkansas program? McFadden, Felix Jones, Hillis, Jamal Anderson. Doesn't everyone think with everyone able to take pictures and post them immediately there would be a lot more stuff out there. Mallett is the medias whipping boy this year. He is not the problem child everyone out there tries to make him. He will be successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is not the problem child everyone out there tries to make him. He will be successful. Um, Cam Newton is getting destroyed by the media & he was the far superior qb in the SEC. Mallett has talent no doubt but I'd rather take a national champion who bought a hot laptop than a potential chubby cokehead with Bledsoe like movement.

Zulu Cthulhu Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 No one negative news item about Mallett is particularly damning. I think the compounding of all these stories, combined with his evasive non-denials are what is hurting him. He's an immature kid, for sure. Probably no more immature than most of us were at his age. But whoever pulls the trigger on Mallett better expect some drama once he gets that first huge check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Geez. Just as I started to warm up to him a bit. I liked the gruden piece on him. You'd think that he would wake up and smell the coffee. Maybe he thought talking with Carolina is a waste of time, due too all the newton going 1st talk. I don't think Carolina has a 2nd Rd pick, so the chances of him landing there a nil. Either way, dumb move kid This. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bills1960 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I can't see any team taking a risk on him in the first round. Solely based on his skill set he is questionable, but add a horrible attitude and lack of dedication and a team would be crazy to draft him on Thursday night.
