I hope he surprises all of the media critics too, but he's essentially built to be a special teams type player and an occasional 3rd down back in the NFL. It's difficult to understand why anyone would have expected him to go higher than round 7 with all of the needs that most squads have. I was shocked that he got drafted at all.

As many have pointed out -All of the hype is built in by the media - how many other 7th rounders had a camera in their house, trained on them for minutes upon minutes until they kissed their significant other? The pandering is a bit over the top, even for a social liberal like myself.

What he has exhibited thus far (at least in the Combines) is that for his talents he will have a marginal impact for the Rams, and who, at the end of the day, may well get cut because he is too small and too slow to play defense in the NFL. Oh, and that also happens to be gay.

Big Deal. (God, I hope that doesn't make me a homophobe)
