    After the way this has played out, and is still playing out, do you want him taking a roster spot on your team?

    He'd bring a Tebowlike level of distraction, and he's not good enough to be worth the trouble.

    If he is available The Ravens will throw him a lifeline and slot him in to replace Lewis. They deal with distraction well.

    I don't want a gay guy on my favorite team.

    I don't want him because I don't think he's big enough or good enough -- and if I'm wrong it will go on a long list of players I was wrong about -- but I don't care about any of this stuff and I don't think it will matter ultimately.

    The fact he stayed in school is a major boon in his favor.

    He got smoked against Alabama -- weeks after he found out about the hoax. Either he played bad because he's not that good or he played bad because it was in his head. Either way it's not a ringing endorsement.

    One thing his agent might demand from all teams - don't phone Manti before you draft him.

    I just hope he doesn't end up a-Lion.

    Too much distraction and not enough talent.

    How about the hazing he'll get from opponents?

    Bobby Carpenter was pretty bad, too, but it's definitely a position with a high success rate.

    I'm not sure about LongTimeListener's size complaint. He's 6-1, 248 pounds. There aren't many bigger middle linebackers.
