Fibonacci Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I am torn about this guy. He is talented yes but he also has red flags which makes me eerie. Tough call. I will trust Bowles and Mac on this one if they pick him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFJF Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Read somewhere recently that execs in Indy were impressed with how he handled himself during interviews. Came across as genuine/contrite while taking full responsibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Jones, multiple clubs thought Spence's interviews were "very shaky." That doesn't bode well for a player who had to convince teams that his failed drug tests are behind him. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000639754/article/noah-spence-combine-interviews-very-shaky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna' take a look myself. Thinking now that they were referencing how he answered questions during his media session and not team interviews?

Will try to find the article and post This is what I was thinking of...from CBS sports. – Noah Spence (DE/OLB Eastern Kentucky) I thought had a good session with the media. He answered all the questions about his problems that got him banned from the Big 12 (multiple failed drug tests, ecstasy addiction or habit, whichever you want to call it). He said he’s been being drug tested every week. Admits that he used to be a party guy and he liked ecstasy when he was partying. He seemed to me to be mature up on the podium, and I’d be pretty comfortable with the risk level of taking him in the first round. He’s the best pass rusher in this draft.

The reporter talking about his presser would have less to lose/gain based on giving positive/negative reviews of how he came across. Honestly no idea how I feel about the guy. Legitimately best pass rusher in the draft and might be there at 20? I hope somebody grabs him before that so the Jets don't have to make that call.

TRUE! The reporter talking about his presser would have less to lose/gain based on giving positive/negative reviews of how he came across. Honestly no idea how I feel about the guy. Legitimately best pass rusher in the draft and might be there at 20? I hope somebody grabs him before that so the Jets don't have to make that call. Agree 100% Tough call if he's there at 20.

T0mShane Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Here's a video of Spence's presser at the Combine. You can see how clubs would come away with different conclusions about this guy. I'd imagine some personnel types wanted Spence to fall to his knees and beg forgiveness for using ecstasy, and he just wouldn't do it. Instead, he was pragmatic about it and said he screwed up and needed to stop screwing up. Seemed truthful. The guys who act like they killed someone after getting busted for weed or a DUI are usually the ones who will end up being a recidivist. http://www.clevelandbrowns.com/media-center/videos/Noah-Spence-Combine-Press-Conference/27f22f3d-5889-47b4-9 d82-00f02362f1b5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JETSfaninNE Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I wonder how much X he has done. That sh*t really ****s with your brain chemistry, bad enough that he's taking concussive blows to the head constantly. I'd much rather if he was just a pothead honestly.
