The guy did better earlier in his college career and then his stats trail off. He subsequently gets charged with taking PEDs, not to say he used them for an athletic edge.
If we had the 3rd round pick next year we would have a broad selection of various athletic talents to choose from. We instead used it this year on one risky player who hasn't played within the year.
...I'm not saying it's a terrible thing, I'm just saying that it is risky when a team like the Skins have already used up all of their risk in the recent years.

I know it has been said, but he did play this year. it would have been this upcoming season he would have been inactive, so by your own logic, this was a risk reduction move by the FO. Next year this All SEC player would have been sitting out if not drafted, and he would have been less of a player. Instead we get this guy, who missed the nfl draft because he wanted to stay in school and we get him to be worked out, see the nfl speed etc a year before we really need him and before he would have been normally available.
