Quote:I think I could spin it for him.  First, I would say, it wasn't a decision.   Look at the tape, it happened so fast, there was no "decision" to hit the girl, it was a reaction.  And then I would say, it bothers me every day.   I don't know why I reacted the way I did.   It's something I have to live with and make sure it never happens again.   I've had long talks with my minister about it.   So on and so forth. 

 

Basically, teams have to interview him, do pretty deep background checks, and make sure he's not just a clown, or that this isn't a pattern in his life.   And then, he will still drop in the draft.   There's no getting around that.
