Last year, the Gentleman Giants drafted a bunch of well-mannered choir boys.. college football team captains, Cub Scouts, teachers' pets and adorably photogenic "Up With People" young Republicans. As a result, the team sucked.
To succeed in the NFL today, you need to field a lineup of violent, hardened criminals, the kind of repeat offenders who would eat you, rather than miss lunch. Considering that Jameis Winston - an alleged rapist - was picked first last night, obviously, some crimes are OK.

Damn, I hate the marketing of the NFL draft.
