Quarterback Brandon Weeden passed on a chance to attend the NFL draft in New York, choosing instead to find out his future from the comfort of his parents' home in Edmond, Oklahoma according to the Associated Press. The Oklahoma State quarterback is being projected as a possible late first- or second-round pick. He received an official invite to the draft from the NFL last week, but the thought of spending a night -- or more -- backstage at Radio City Music Hall waiting for his name to be called wasn't appealing. "I really contemplated going," he said. "I hope to go in the first round, but there are a lot of unknowns." Through the years, several high-profile quarterbacks have become the story of the draft because of when they weren't drafted. Source: The Redzone
Screw going to the draft, just stay home and get drunk and belligerent. Oh wait that'll be me, not Weeden. Carry on.
I don't care how good or bad a prospect he his, you have to be stupid to take a 28 year old QB in the first two rounds...which is why it makes sense for him to stay outta the cameras.
