As much as I hated it at the time, the Williams pick was the right one even if Sheldon was clean. Agreed, even though I thought Williams was a top 3 prospect I wanted to trade back and robbed someone. However, who knows what teams offered us, and he was BPA so I cooled down pretty quick. When I heard a comparison of the next Reggie White I was sold even before watching his tape. I love Klecko, but Reggie White was the best defensive player I have ever seen in my life.

He definitely looks the part. He's a tad slow off the ball, but he still gets there. You probably saw it in the 2016 prospect thread, but in the video of Jared Goff we get a GREAT look at Leonard. He had two sacks and a few pressures. If anyone else wants to see it here is our Richardson replacement. Get excited!

When he played against Peat I believe he had a sprained ankle or two and was still able too dominate.

I remember when he sprained his ankle, but I can't remember if it was vs Stanford or ASU. Either way I remember it happened pretty early on and it looked like a high ankle sprain. He just taped it up and was chasing people all over the place. The kid is a beast.

He sprained it before the Stanford game, but still playe. He had 11 tackles and a sack. Then during the ASU game I believe someone hit it again and he came back hobbled, but still dominated.

Yes, it was before the Stanford game and he was a game time decision at the time. Then he was matched up against Peat(whom I loved) most of the time and still wreaked havoc. It was an extremely impressive college performance and this kid is still a kid. 20yo. As badly as I wanted offense, you can't pass on this type of talent. He's gong to dominate as a rookie.

Its a gateway drug. And the lifestyle also lends itself to more undesirable things (i.e. guns). We are seeing a progression here. You must have watched the same anti-drug films I was forced to watch as a kid in the eighties. Love that vintage catch phrase ... I suggest lots of disposable money at a young age is a significantly bigger gateway drug than cannabis. While his recent actions were foolish and ill advised, Richardson is an angry man ... particularly angry at the shooting of Michael Brown by the Ferguson police. It's not surprising that he is trying to escape the St Louis Police. Despite the fact that reefer was being smoked in the car, I doubt he will test positive. Yes he is stupid but not ultra-stupid, it was likely his cohorts smoking. Richardson knew he would be tested at any time, so I doubt he partook on this ocassion.

I always thought Sheldon was a little bit of a loose cannon - which cuts both ways. He was a pedal-to-the-metal player on the field - and - WOW - what can one say - he is off it too apparently. His evening out reads like a MOST INTERESTING MAN IN THE WORLD script. What could possibly go wrong? Guy obviously has some serious mental/impulsiveness issues and a bit of a god complex.
I think he's played his last. Thank god we have LW.......

Why have we not heard anything about his bail? With those charges he's obviously not ROR.

He's not going to be suspended more than this season He'll be back next year......He's probably done for this year I guess you missed where three NFL guys said he'll likely not play another down in the NFL thats not gonna happen...those are just GM's hoping to plant a seed so the jets cut his ass and they have a chance to sign him next season.

Hardy beat the shit out of his GF......4 games Ray Rice beat the shit out of his GF......2 games SHeldon went ridiculously fast in his car, and his career is over? C'mon Ridiculously fast while fleeing police with a gun, pot and a twelve year old in the car. That is a real special breed of ridiculously fast, Jon... read that the charge for endangering the kid alone could be seven years in prison... lets not make this bigger than it already is....the gun was registered and there was NO drugs found or drug charges filed.

I am not saying we should pull the plug on him but we need to get him help. There has to be someone in his entourage that actually cares for him. Need to get him away from the bad elements and focusing on football. Ugh, there's no such thing as a gateway drug. Get out of the 1950's and "reefer madness" bro. Cannabis leads to nothing but more cannabis and junk food. I dont know if you were just kidding about that but if not then that was just plain ignorant.

Richardson knew he would be tested at any time, so I doubt he partook on this ocassion. a couple of things......... lots of disposable money is not available to the largest population of teenage cannabis users who turn into substance abusers and predicate felons. That is a fallacy. I dont care what the hell happened in ferguson a few months ago, a millionaire super star football player should NEVER be in a car chase with the police with a child in the car. He has to much to lose in too many ways and loses more by running. I dont care if he never took a toke (I'd bet he did) if he was in a car "hot boxing" then it will still be in his system because he inhaled it. No different that people catching cancer from second hand smoke.
