McFadden may drop in draft

[sacase]

Is the feeling on here that Marion Barber is gone next season? Or is it that MBIII running style prevents him from being a number one back?

No you can't get him.

McFadden's mother, Mini Muhammad, said her son was trying to protect his younger brother, Daryl.

Hmmm....does his younger bro play ball?

Little Rock has piano bars? Clubs?

...I'm sooo not buying that.

I may be the only guy on this board who is not sold on McFadden. I have watched them a number of times this season and I am not sure he will be a big time back in the NFL. He runs strait up, doesn't seen to have much wiggle, and Felix Jones looks like just as good of back.

I could be eating my words when he wins rookie of the year honers next year but I was expecting to see more when I watched him than I got.

Nope...I am with you....this guy is already acting like a thug premadonna...he would be completely off the board if I were drafting. The Cowboys have developed a solid reputation for good people and hard workers...and I wouldn't risk this dork tampering with team chemistry.

One incident really means nothing. Only if evidence comes out that he has done something like this before would it be a consideration.

You might want to reread the article.

There's also been allegations of him receiving a car (made out to his mother) from an agent earlier in the year.

Boy, don't put him and Killa together!

gimme a break, McFadden's one of the hardest working and most well liked guys on his team. I guess it's more fun to have an uninformed opinion that stands out than it is to know what you're talking about.

Yeah, it's on my list of places to visit asap...right after Plattsburgh, NY.

...don't be such a sour puss.

Piano bar says to me a quiet little place with a sixty something playing Nat King Cole, while the patrons drink chardonnay. Perhaps I mis-visualize?

 

[GhettoxCowboy]

ESPN radio reported that McFadden was in hand cuffs this morning after an altercation at a bar. Some fight or something. Apparently he has been in trouble for this kind of thing before. I didn't know that. It could effect his draft stock.

Even after all this, i don't see D-mac Dropping in the draft. there is always gonna be a team that takes a chance on a great RB like him..

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Heisman Trophy runner-up Darren McFadden was handcuffed by police and then released without charges after being involved in a "pretty rowdy scene" at a piano bar early Thursday.

Arkansas' All-American running back and at least four others were at the downtown bar when a disturbance broke out shortly after midnight, police Lt. Terry Hastings said. A bouncer was hit in the face as he was trying to get the group to leave, Hastings said. A police report did not specify who hit the bouncer.

"There was a whole bunch of people there," Hastings said. "They were inside and it spilled out into the street."

Outside, McFadden was handcuffed by a police officer "because he was agitated and was provoking aggressive behavior inciting the incident," according to the police report.

"We handcuffed him for a few minutes because he was rowdy," Hastings said.

McFadden, who was the only person handcuffed, was released after he calmed down. Hastings said it was routine procedure to handcuff a person to gain control of a situation.

Hastings said bar employee Brant Hankins was advised that he could pursue charges against the person who hit him. The police report classified the incident as misdemeanor battery.

In the summer of 2006 in a fight outside another Little Rock club, McFadden severely injured his toe, but recovered in time to play in the Razorbacks' season opener.

McFadden, who also finished second in the 2006 Heisman voting, holds Arkansas' career and single-season rushing records. The junior has yet to decide whether he will forgo his senior year and enter the NFL draft.

McFadden was to be honored at the Little Rock Touchdown Club's annual banquet Thursday night.

It's cool, Mang.



As long as he slides to #22 (or whatever it is).

 

[AsthmaField]

IMO he's been slidding (whatever that is) for a while.

 

[CowboyWay]

Yeah, I can see where something like this might make him slide all the way down to 3 or 4 in the draft.

Too rich for my blood.

 

[EchoBrain22]

after the combine his stock will be back up, I just hope the Pats dont get him
