This year's colossal character risk? Georgia's mammoth defensive tackle Jalen Carter. Every team at the top of the draft is doing everything they possibly can to dissect a prospect who may wreck NFL offenses... but who also may not love football that much. And who also has major off-field concerns.
Co-host Jim Monos relives red flags past inside the NFL draft room. Also, his Buffalo Bills possessed another large man who violently moved other large men on a football field: Marcell Dareus. Is the comparson fair? Yes and no. (Also: Here's the feature referenced on the podcast that I wrote on Dareus at the Buffalo News: https://buffalonews.com/sports/bills/bills-dareus-keeps-playing-through-life-s-losses/article_be1b05a5-f8a3-5141-9ecc-afa19476e595.html)
