re: Michael Sam: I should have been drafted sooner

If we wanted to be drafted sooner, he should have ran faster and jumped higher at the combine.
He did put up better numbers at the Missouri Pro Day, running in the 4.7 range and recording a 30" Vertical. He strained his hamstring, so he may be capable of even better numbers, and that wouldn't surprise me based on the way he plays.
I think what prevented him from going higher is that he's a speed rusher that looks to get the edge on OTs, but he lacks elite speed and quickness.
He has a good chance to make the roster in St. Louis backing up Long and Quinn at DE. He gives great effort, he's good with his hands, and he can turn the corner and get to the QB.

If he was straight, he would have been a UFA. He was drafted because of his orientation. He racked up almost all of his sacks in 3 so-so games. He stunk up the combine. I think the Rams felt pressured to draft him. I love all these "welcome to the family tweets. Let's see how many shower next to him.

He would have come out much better financially of he had been an UFA.

Wasn't Colston a draft pick?

I'm a normal guy he says and then acts like a whiny arse bitch.

He has a ready-made excuse. Classic. They didn't draft me earlier because I was gay. They didn't start me because I was gay. They cut me because I was gay.

Not many 7th round picks out there comparing themselves to the number 1 overall pick.
Reminds me of Thomas Robinson saying he should have went over Anthony Davis then proceeded to be traded 3 times in a year because he sucks.

I hope he gets skull fricked in the nfl.
But he will like that...

he had a shitty combine and is undersized and slow.

He was drafted where he was projected to be drafted.

And here it goes. Just wait til he gets cut.

He won't see the field in St. Louis, their D-Line is stacked.
