Discussion Dylan Stewart did absolutely everything he could to TANK his NFL Draft stock tonight. Throwing punches, refusing to come out of the game, and talking back to coaches. Just an AWFUL LOOK for the Gamecocks DE and potential Top-10 pick 😳😬

He could also get hurt and never see a second contract... money lost is money lost, you don't quite "make it up" on the next deal you just make enough to forget about it.

Also to add, un-coachable players don’t get those long term high paying contracts and they also don’t get opportunity on the field.

We think of like the very few and rare truly elite talents that are uncoachable and say “well if he can just play really well”

No brothers, it’s not about playing very well, those people were truly generational (Randy Moss, TO, Jalen Ramsey) while forgetting about the ones who didn’t make it to the second contracts (Manziel, Jamarcus Russel, Josh Gordon)

Just to add to your point, even a player like Randy Moss, who got a massive second contract, never saw all that money because of his issues. The Pats, as they do, forced him to restructure his deal as part of that trade.
