Tyler Higbee of Western Kentucky, who’s considered one of the top tight ends in the 2016 NFL Draft, is facing multiple charges after an early Sunday morning arrest in Bowling Green, Ky.

Zach Greenwell of the Bowling Green Daily Newsreported that Higbee, 23, was charged with second degree assault, second degree evading police and alcohol intoxication in a public place.

He was booked at 2:41 a.m. Sunday, less than three weeks before the draft, and now he’ll have a bunch of questions to answer for NFL evaluators.

The 6-foot-6 Higbee was No. 76 on last week’s Rotoworld draft prospect rankings. He caught 48 passes for 563 yards and eight touchdowns as a senior despite missing five games due to injury.

Kids these days All he had to do was be smart for another month.
In a relatively weak TE class I wonder how much if any this affects his draft status?

Probably get picked by New England in the 6th round.

Has he had previous knee surgeries? If so that makes him a lock.

Probably get picked by New England in the 6th round.

I was gonna say Dallas in the 5th. Two reasons. 1. Dallas picks a TE yearly, 2. Dallas needs to find Witten's replacement.

I don't know so much if its kids these days. I think kids pretty much act the same now as they did 10, 20, 30 years ago. This type of stuff is just more prone to come out these days.
