From the article Manster linked, Callaway said:

"I mean, I matured. I'm past that. I don't dwell on it or nothing. It happened. It happened, so I can't cry over spoiled milk. I was young. I was dumb."

Heard that too many times. What he means is that he's sorry he got caught doing so much stupid shit, but everyone else should forget about it.

Yeah, he was dumb, but he's still young. He hasn't suffered any real consequences so it's not likely that he's matured. Maturity comes with dealing with the consequences of one's mistakes.

Those words came pre combine, he went on to talk now having a child and the responsibility that comes with it.

I get that, but really, how much maturity can a person acquire in two months? It sometimes happens that a person will have a major life event occur, such as the birth of a child, and completely rehabilitate himself, but it's rare. It's even more rare when the consequences for his illegal and foolish mistakes were withheld from him.

Seriously, how many times have we heard professional athletes, across all sports, say pretty much the same thing? "It's in the past. I don't dwell on that stuff. I've grown up."

My thoughts are, "Quit telling me you've grown up and start showing me that you've grown up." That takes more than two months of not getting caught doing something wrong.

Bottom line: No Thanks on Callaway.

It appears not much. I gave a lot of credit to his child comment. Turns out he was blowing smoke as he inhaled smoke.

Calloway will likely fall down the board and may not get drafted.

Marcus Davenport would look good opposite DLaw. Davenport is raw,bUT marinelli would turn him quickly into a force to be reckoned with.

I think Callaway is the first guy to fuck up bad enough where even Jerry wont touch him. Impossible I know, but I think true.

I would draft Calloway in the 7th round. The kid is troubled but very talented

If there with one of our 6ths sure. If he's a bust or fails drug tests, oh well, it was a free pick, no loss. Not liil Gregory where it was a premium pick we burned.
