Fairley...

[Ricky Spanish]

No flag, should be more red than this one:

seriously, socks with sandals?

tool

Am I the only one who thinks Russell looks way fitter than Fairley here?

Anyways, yeah Fairley is a retard. I thought he was trouble a few months ago, a few of you flamed me for it -.-

[Marguide]

After the National Championship game, I was all down with drafting Fairley number 1. Then I started to follow him on Twitter.

His answers to questions that arose on Twitter about dirty play really turned me off to the guy. I perceived someone that did not take responsibility for his actions, and was not likely to be a guy that took coaching well.

He'll probably go on to a great career, but his attitude is troubling.

[JawnyBlaze]

I've never wanted Fairley. Want him even less now. Dareus will be twice the pro Fairley will be.

Via Adam Schefter,

"Nick Fairley's agent, Brian Overstreet, said his client has not been late to, or missed, any meetings with NFL teams."

So I guess this thread was pointless eh?

Twitter is what turned me off to him as well. He would just post things like "Woo!" and "War Damn Eagle" ad nauseuam. It got to be quite irritating.

Then there was that time he called out some 11-year-old Alabama fan and continued to ridicule her on the Internet.

I think the guy's a joke, personally. If we're going to take a tackle, I hope it's Dareus.

Yeah, Fairley scares me and that swim move he uses 99% of the time when he's penetrating the LOS isn't going to work in the NFL.

Adam Schefter tweeted that Fairley's agent, Brian Overstreet, is denying that any of this stuff happened.

Per his words, his client "has not been late to, or missed, any meetings with NFL teams".

Either the agent is lying or the media has their "problem children" picked out this year..along with Mallett to beat up on. They do this every year where the media hones in on a handful of players as "red flag guys", whether the allagations are founded or not. One rumored coke-head is in the HOF and the Dolphins should thank the talking heads for allowing Maino to fall to them at the tail end of the first round.

I know he was late to Indy. Either he missed the flight or it was cancelled. That should be easy for any team to check out.

So he went through the combine a bit behind schedule. FWIW

I love that old clip of a Jets fan being interviewed after they passed on Marino for O'Brien.

"Obviously, the Jets know something that we don't" :lol:

I suspect Fairley is off the table as far as the #1 pick for the Panthers, but that's just my take. And even if that is true, I seriously doubt they'll admit it.

Remember that many teams put this poo out there to get players to take a little draft day tumble.

Some of this could be coming from Arizona if they think that he will fit in well there.

[Millions]

Even with all of this coming out I see him going to the Titans or Texans in the first.

This whole thing is funny, but 0:18 is what you were talking about...
