Mershawn Lynch intrigues me the most. It feels like he could be had for our fourth round pick and he's only 24 years old. Then again we have like infinity billion running backs and negative infinity billion draft picks. Lynch also has a handful of legal problems. However, and you probably know more about this then I do, but how did he get into Cal Berkley without being smart?

I mean I know they probably didn't hold him to the same standards going in as their other students but to attend Cal-Berkley something has to be working right in that otherwise messed up head of his. Then again UGA has some pretty loose standards with athletes. I've had friends with 1,300 SAT scores that have been denied admittance while hearing about athletes with 800 SAT scores.

Found this on Mershawn:

What makes Lynch so fascinating to me — besides the fact that we’re both, at the moment, North Oaklanders — is that he was considered a stand-up character guy in his three years as a Cal Golden Bear. He was a model player, a regular “Mama’s Boy” — which he had tattood in giant letters on his back. And he was unselfish, shy, team- and family-oriented, a future NFL-er who avoided trouble and never did anything wrong on or off the field, while maintaining a 3.0 GPA at UC Berkeley.
