there is no risk

guys like Frank Clark, Ty Hill, Joe Mixon, TSuggs, KHunt, RFoster are all still in the league

we can't take some moral high ground after Josh Brent, Joe Randle, Greg Hardy and Zeke Elliott
stop playing or just being stupid.
there is a difference in ONE CASE versus 3.
randle was cut, brent was here because the victim's mom asked he be kept around. hardy had 1 case was all pro and lasted all of 1 season.
all 3 are perfect examples why you don't take the risk.
they offered up jack squat but continue to drag the team's name down.

Former Baylor standout defensive end Shawn Oakman was found not guilty today of rape.

Would you take a chance on him given our need at DE?

I always thought he was too stiff (yes I know) and overhyped anyway. But I'd love to hear what y'all think about this.
Yes. Yes and Yes. He and Gathers are athletic freaks.

I have been interested in him for a long time. He does not have a drug problem, he does not have baby mama drama, and he was treated as guilty until proven innocent. If he wants to play football, he will play like someone stole something from him. Because someone did.

Where are people getting this false information that he has not played football in 4 years? This just shows how people regurgitate crap and run with it. He's been playing arena football while all this crap has been going on.

Zero risk here everyone. Shawn Oakman should be signed by Dallas. Could he be a solid rotational piece? Maybe. If he sucks then Dallas will cut him loose at the end of camp. This is a no brainer. Sign the man today.

If true, it's a shame that his professional career was ruined by this.
And that's why I hate the believe the victim narrative they try to push. I also hate how all fake accusers get is a finger wag and a shame on you from society, people who lie about rape and DV should serve a minimum of 5yrs in prison.

Should move to DT, his bend of EDGE sucks.
