Gobe, they are allegations no doubt, but they are in an affidavit filed in court, lending them some semblance of credence... letting the situation play out a bit makes sense... sometimes its better to be prudent, don't ya think?
Definitely, hopefully the truth of the matter can be cleared up.

I just remember that college football player that spent something 7 years in jail from a false accusation of rape. Took the girl all those years to finally admit it.
 
Fifth-year senior with 42 career starts between SMU and Missouri. Bryant is a tall tackle whose upper-body strength and punch timing are critical in making up for his lack of natural knee-bend. He’s an average run blocker who might be able to reduce his run-block losses with fewer outside-zone reps. Bryant has the tools to provide pass protection in the NFL, but he needs to keep working on the consistency of his technique.

Strengths​

  • Nice blend of size, length and athletic ability.
  • Powerful upper body mitigates his lack of bend.
  • Uses length to land and stay connected as a run blocker.
  • Good quickness in his initial slide steps to race out to the rusher.
  • Throws punch with good timing to alter the rusher’s plan.
  • Has the feet to mirror rushers up and around the arc.

Weaknesses​

  • Strikes with his hands but doesn’t cinch-up and control defenders.
  • Tall pad level hinders ability getting to back-side and second-level cut-offs.
  • Below-average timing getting from one block to the next.
  • Lacks ideal instincts to recognize twist games in pass protection.
  • Below-average command with his hands and punch in pass pro.
  • Needs to eliminate excessive waist-bending and leaning.
His weaknesses are all correctable with solid OL Coaching.
 
We get to pick Mr Irrelevant this year?

iirc the last time we had the last pick in the draft, we took Marty Moore, who turned into a pretty good player
 
7th round picks are scratch lotto tickets. So it makes sense to double your odds and see if one of the two guys hit. Chiefs must like someone here earlier in the 7th and Patriots are like, yeah we'll gladly play the odds here.

I like the trade. But yeah I do wish these picks would happen a lot faster at this point

Yeah you are just hoping one of them shows some life in camp. We pick 3 guys in this round, if one becomes a rotational player you still made out well.
