This. He's an absolutely perfect fit for the position.

I would agree

H*ll no dude is a dumba$$

People said the same thing about the Honey Badger. Dude was a straight-up junkie; but lots of teams are sorry they passed on him, now.

Janoris Jenkins as well, to a lesser extent.

Is Tim going in the 5th round? Plus Williams off field concerns isn't simply involving smoking weed.
What about a guy like Keionta Davis with a later pick?

The Honey Badger went in the early 3rd round, not the 5th. Jenkins went in the early 2nd.

And both of these guys had much more severe issues than weed smoking. Mathieu used heroin. Jenkins other issues as well; and that's just the stuff we know about.

All of these guys are bad news, but sometimes the gamble pays off (and I'd say it does more times than not with guys this talented).

Lynch will probably have to keep a watchful eye on Williams and designate Bowman as a mentor. If he stays clean he could be a premier pass rusher from the Sam.

Tyus Bowser got his face broken by a teammate in a fight, does that qualify?

He also refused to fight back.

Fair enough, idk the whole story.. haven't looked into it. Know what it was over?
It was a drill that got heated, and he was on the receiving end of a sucker punch. I remember people reporting about it on twitter.

Bowser missed five games this past season after getting in an altercation with a teammate during which he never threw a punch but broke his orbital bone. Extrapolating his numbers over the full 13-game season, he would have had 76 tackles, 19.5 TFL, and 14 sacks. Those tackle for loss and sack numbers would have been near the top of the FBS ranks.

If not for missing time from getting punched, Bowser would probably be a consensus first-round pick right now. The guy was on a tear thru 8 games.

Big difference between a dope head a women beater and a fight bewteen team mates but put them all into tha same group if that makes u feel better about wanting someone like that on our team...

I agree, but what part of my statement made it sound like I wanted him or Tim Williams..? I think we have guys who can play the pass rush SAM spot as long as we draft a LEO, preferably Derek Rivers <---- Really good dude, from everything ive seen.
Only dope head i'd consider, because I hope it's in his past, is Josh Gordon because we aren't talking 2nd-3rd round pick for him

Heroin? Any facts to back that up? All I ever heard of was rumors and just stupid weed charges.
