Jason Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Given the breaking story on Te'o, where would you take him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sois Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Only acceptable way is if he just says he's gay and that's why he made all this stuff up. Everything else is too weird/dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Ugh. He's just too good at a position of need. This story is pretty bad. He is still clearly lying. But I am in the minority that thinks you cannot pass up a problem child when the value it presents is too great. If he makes it to #53, why not? We already and will always have that bad perception.

akiliMVP Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Too much like Rey right down to being a headcase. A slightly upgraded Rey. I'd rather stick with Burfict or draft another, more athletic/fluid MLB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gatorclaws Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I can't answer until more about the story comes out. It's potentially a huge red flag though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|kennethmw| Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I still think he's a fine player, and talent wise you draft him at 21, if he's there. The real question may be, however, does anyone draft him if it comes out that he's gay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|Numbers| Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Was this cooked up by a quote unquote religious figure named Ronaiah Tuiasosopo ? If so then take a look at his past which fits the picture of a con man of sorts. Even seen a picture of him with a pink flower in his lapel... It would not be impossible for him to obtain a girl to do the phone conversation. That is not to say he is guilty or not but he appears suspicious in his actions and demeanor.

MichaelWeston Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 1. I think its somewhat funny. He kind of punked us. 2. I think he is slower then I thought he was. 3. I am really afraid he is a more instinctive Rey Mualaga. That might not be a bad thing but I really don't want to replace Mualaga with another guy who can't cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NASTYNATI Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 After watching him in the National Championship game I'm not so sure he isn't going to fall out of the first round anyway.

JC Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Manti is a pretty good coverage backer. Probably better than Rey, today. Could probably play any 3 backer spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Supposedly Manti is saying that he tried to meet up with her, but she never showed in Hawaii. Problem is, he said he had met her. So now I'm curious as to whether the guy is lying, or he was embarrassed that he hadn't met his girlfriend whom he was in "love" with. I feel like he is lying, but I think there is a slim chance the cat could have just been embarrassed about never actually meeting his girlfriend.
