An article last week in the Wall Street Journal noted that “shortly before the 2010 NFL Draft, a scouting service that prepares confidential psychological profiles of players for NFL teams found that Aaron Hernandez enjoyed ‘living on the edge of acceptable behavior’ and cautioned that he could become ‘a problem’ for his team.
“On one personality test,” the WSJ reported, “Hernandez . . . received the lowest possible score, 1 out of 10, in the category of ‘social maturity.’ ”
"Do you think, when Spygate was going on, Bill told his boss it was common practice to videotape the sideline signals of opposing teams — an act which, when discovered, resulted in Belichick receiving the largest fine levied against a coach in NFL history ($500,000) as well as an additional $250,000 fine assessed the team?"
Apparently the senile writer is unaware that YES it was common practice to videotape opposing team's signals, etc. What an ignoramus posing as a reporter. My problem with most such reporters is that they actually know so little about their supposed area of expertise.
I've read this sooooo many times now:
And yet no one has asked, or answered the question: How typical or atypical is this? in other words, how many NFL players came into the league with such an assessment? I'd bet perhaps a few. Seems there's room for context to be added to the discussion.
Tom Brady's Guru | ThePostGameIf He Wasn't Depressed, He Was Close
That year, 1997, was a crucial year for Michigan football. But it was also a crucial year for the skinny kid who backed up quarterback Brian Griese that season. He showed up at Harden’s office after two years as a benchwarmer and said, “I think you can help me.”
Harden told Tom Brady to take a seat.
We all know Brady as the leader who seems to know exactly what to do at all times. Well, this Tom Brady wasn’t like that. He was a bit lost. He just had acute appendicitis, he had lost 25 pounds, he was no lock to ever start at Michigan, and the head coach had his eye on a stud prep from down the road named Drew
Henson. The thought entered his mind to pack up and transfer to Cal. “He was feeling like a
victim,” says Harden. “And he hated it. If he wasn’t depressed, he was close.”

I think the other teams who now claim that Hernandez was off their board are the most hilarious. Where were these guys after the 2011 season when Hernandez had a breakout year?
I guarantee you that if Hernandez was a free agent this offseason before all the crap went down, most of these teams would have been fighting over each other to sign him.
