For the most part, I believe, the Vikings have to put together a very solid group of "good guys". Outside of relatively recent events (Rock Thomas), it's been awhile since we've had a player make the front page with an updated mugshot. It seems as if this "good guy" personality trait is very highly rated within the Vikings organization. And I don't have a problem with that at all. BUT that got me thinking about 1 player in particular. I wondered if he'd even be given a chance here, by the team and/or by the fans, as a mid to late round selection? Say somewhere in the 4th to 6th round range. The kid has truck loads of talent, (He might be the best WR in the draft) but he made a REALLY REALLY REALLY bad choice a couple years ago. Because of that epically slimy moment, he wasn't invited to the scouting combine to showcase himself. You don't hear his name being discussed anywhere really. And obviously he's cost himself millions of dollars already. But his tape speaks for itself. The kids name I'm thinking of Preston Williams, WR from Colorado State. IMO the skies the limit with him, but (and it's a big BUT) you have to be willing to look past an incident where he got physical with a woman and then harassed her with 200 phone calls. But.....he's been problem free since, as far as I know. Someone is going to give this kid a chance in the NFL and probably get a steal on value. It's just a matter of who and in which round. So would you take a chance on him? Do you think the Vikings would?
