I mean he was the SEC Defensive Player of the Year... so he wasn't complete garbage by any means. Guess the whole gay thing affected his draft stock in a negative way.

Chad Lavalais was the SEC DPotY a few years ago. He was like a 7th rounder or UDFA. Some guys just don't have NFL bodies. |

Everyone talks about his bad combine, and it was bad. But they don't acknowledge that his pro day was demonstrably better.
It's just fact that him coming out affected his draft stock more than anything else. He wasn't a candidate for every team because of scheme. But for the teams he would fit in as a situational/subpackage guy? Those teams' front offices literally think that their locker rooms are fragile as glass. Any distraction can destroy a team, they think. They literally think that their locker rooms are less stable -- that their player have less mental toughness -- than the college locker room at Missouri. |

If Sam indeed goes undrafted, the almighty "distraction" remains the most powerful force in the NFL. Teams are scared to death of it. |

There are better players than Sam who've still not been drafted. Get over it.

Remember vontaze burfict or whatever from Arizona sun devils
He went un drafted to Cincy and beast raped people. I was hooing we could have drafted that guy with our 7th. Nowadays freedom of speech is gone and you can't say anything about gay people without feeling the fallout. Actions speak the loudest and nobody wants to draft the gay guy it looks like |

Call me crazy, but I feel like Dorsey/Reid would totally welcome Sam into the Chiefs locker room as a camp body to see if he could fight for a spot. They really seem to give the least ****s about how the media perceives anything they do, and I think Andy Reid would be a solid mentor if the guy truly does have something inside of him that makes him a competitor.

By the Rams... What a joke. Where is the same coverage for all the other undrafted F A's? It is/ was and is ONLY about him being gay. Mission accomplished ESPN.

Where is/was the equal coverage for the guys who were in the same position? What about the guy, who is not gay, who was not drafted because Sam was? Isn't that just as much of a story? ****ing pathetic.
