if lawyers can get a criminal money for injuries received while committing a crime due to the victims negligence then i am sure they are looking into this one. people wonder why this country is so screwed up.

This is the type of a case a lawyer can make a name for themselves
Yeah, but I'm just wondering who he can really go after ... he had already committed to the draft, hasn't been charged with anything, so why should the NFL excuse/remove him from his commitment just because his stock drops? I don't see a case there, it's just business & the NFL didn't do anything to cause his decline in value.

The 32 NFL teams that did not draft him cannot be found culpable ... what did they do other than avoid him for possible future legal issues?

The police for investigating him and/or naming him a person-of-interest in his baby-mama's murder? IDK if there would be a case there either ... they're just doing their job as part of a murder investigation.

It's kinda' an odd situation and maybe the NFL is erring on the side of caution, but in today's NFL climate, they sorta' have to, IMO.

Just one of those situations the guy is gonna' have live through ... at least there's some light at the end of the tunnel in that there will still be some lucrative NFL contracts and an NFL career available to him when it's all cleared up.

But yeah, I agree, ... if there's a way for an attorney to build a case outta' this one, they're undoubtedly working on it as we speak, .

The NFL isnt liable, hes got nothing there, they were just protecting their investments. If he has a shot at going after anyone it will be the state for defamation of character maybe. Even that will make teams shy away because it will create a media circus and they could see it as a distraction. The NFL didnt do anything to him.
Its just an unfortunate incident.
