So if he plays well, has a similar season to his sophomore season - he is the 1st DE taken. If he half-a$$es it all season, becomes a distraction and can't live up to they hype because it's hard to be a star player and a good teammate on a good team - he is the first DE taken with some yellow/red flags, bad publicity, and loads of questions from a GM. If he sat out - he is the first DE taken with some yellow/red flags, bad publicity, and loads of questions from a GM. When was the last time a sure-fire high 1st rounder sat out a season (for no real reason, aside from protecting himself - when the make insurance for that exact situation) and then still went #1? I maintain the best situation would be to play his a$$ off, give a 1,000% and see where things end up. [/QUOTE]
