If I lived in Starkville Mississippi I'd probably be out drinking too.

Even if he hadn't gotten arrested, no one would be drafting Dak to be the face of the franchise. He is a career backup.

Looks like he may need to trade in that escalade. I don't think the arena pays well enough to drive one of those.

What makes you think he won't make it in the NFL?.....There's a huge demand for hybrid TE's these days

If only there was an app that he could have used to get a cheap ride.

Cousin Eddie was wrong about Dak being the black Tebow.

I doubt that affects his draft status too much. A domestic violence arrest would be a much bigger issue now than a misdemeanor DUI arrest.

I agree, but the timing is terrible. It will hurt his stock, but doesn't end him by any means.

Where was he projected anyway?

I think 3rd or 4th round.

Another candidate for Mensa membership.

Justin Blackmon had a DUI before the draft. Stupid Jags took him in the first round anyway. That didn't turn out very well.

He said Dak was better than Tebow. He is a funny guy.
This will enhance his draft status versus hinder it. In the world of professional sports, this is considered leadership because you are showing your team that you are one of the guys.

Starkville?... How'd they separate Dak from the other weaving drivers.

they traded up to get him

He is a career TE.

Fixed it for you!

 

[Marianna-FL_Gator]

Dak is a idiot! He was drunk as hell in Club La vela (last spring break) running his mouth about "how Florida boy's ain't sh*t" and then about 20 kicked the brakes off him and his Escalade.

Another player not minding his p's and q's before the draft. It's like those with the need for weed they fail a drug test and cost themselves millions. It can't be that important can it?

Do you think he's good enough to back up JD? I'm still amazed that anyone would go to MSU that didn't grow up there and you can include Ole Miss.

One of the worst run sports franchises in history. They are trying to catch Cleveland for stupidity and ineptitude.
