Brandon Stokely said he got a call from Royal right after the draft & he was asking the vet reciever for advice on learning the playbook. Gibbs might've jumped on this guy had he been here, he's got all the personal traits for success it seems.
I don't expect anyone to have the same "character" standards as Joe Gibbs, but in this case I really hope DT isn't as much of a problem as JLC says he is. I know JLC gets bashed here for some of his opinions (and sometimes errors), but over time I don't think he puts anything in print about a player's work ethic & character until he's got a good body of evidence. Take a look at his writing about Loyd e.g.

Well, at least we've got the 4th WR position filled through 2011. That's got to be worth something, right?
