His dad was convicted of murder and escaped from prison and was on the run for 16 years before being caught again. Just a little nugget that is really irelevant imo but may not be to others.
stay away from foster just draft tj watts
I think it's gotten to the point that Reddick has not only passed Foster; it's no longer even close. There are just way too many questions with Foster. And frankly, I think Reddick is every bit the athlete and play-maker that Foster is. Foster was just a bigger name. Reddick's a stud. Foster - I'd need a whole team of experts to investigate him to sign off on picking him. He's almost definitely sliding out of the top 20 and maybe out of the top 30.I still blame the shoulder for why he is dropping.

It's not only his shoulder. He had a drug issue in college that folks were going to ignore UNTIL the urine test. He also got kicked out of the combine. There are various character issues with him. And the ultra physical way he plays leads some to think he'll be injury-prone - regarldless of his shoulder issue. It's the combination of all these issues that are going to likely knock him down - not just any one issue.I agree with you. Reddick also offers pass rushing ability that Foster doesn't have. I don't think Reddick will be available at 17. Him and Cm are the hottest risers in this draft and both could go top 10. The question wasn't if Reddick is the belter prospect its that Foster is dropping b/c of his shoulder not his urine test.
