Weaknesses:
Motor runs hot and cold...Doesn't always play with proper leverage..Poor instincts and awareness...Marginal technician...Has issues with stamina...Struggles to shed blocks..Questionable work ethic..Has some character concerns..High maintenance.
Notes:
Underachiever who has the physical tools to be great..Was suspended for the first two games of 2007 for conduct detrimental to the team...Was suspended again in October '07 after he crashed his car into an apartment building and left the scene while driving drunk...Was allowed back on the team after just four weeks but was ultimately dismissed once and for all after being cited for driving with a suspended license....Still has some legal issues to resolve....Has the talent to play at the next level but might be more trouble than he is worth....Classic Boom or Bust prospect.
