Quote:From the same article, this was an interesting blurb about Dominique Easley:

 

"Florida DT Dominique Easley — The combine’s biggest value is for teams to investigate players’ character and medical statuses, and Easley might not be in great shape with either. Easley was described as “distracted” and “immature” by one team, and his discussion with the media that he preferred watching cartoons to football might back that up. Also, he’s coming off his second torn ACL in two years and has not decided when he can work out in April for scouts while he rehabs."

 

The current regime is very big on attitude, love of the game, enthusiasm, etc.   I can already see a lot of guys getting downgraded.  

 

I don't know how many of you are Gator fans, but if you have ever watched Easley play, you know that none of the above is a concern for him.  Not only was he a complete monster on the line with possibly the quickest first step I have ever seen a tackle have, he was also constantly dancing in between plays and seemed to be having more fun than anyone else on the field.  He is a wacky character with a very different personality though.  He used to bring a Chucky doll with him to every game and carry it on the Gator walk before the games with him, when he found out he was out for the rest of the year he passed the Chicky doll on to Dante Fowler.  He seemed to be loved by his teammates and things like the Chucky doll and dancing between downs makes think enthusiasm, love of the game, and attitude are no problem for him.  He has always been...odd to say the least in his interviews so this doesn't surprise me.  However, if he stays healthy, whatever team gets him is getting an elite, top ten pick level talent and I hope its us.
