Must have tremendous upside to risk being a defendant in the court of public opinion.

DE Carl Granderson
40 Yard Dash 4.79
6' 5" 254 lbs 34”Arms 9 5/8” Hands
5.37 NFL Draft Score Draft Projection Round 6

He played in all 12 games as a key reserve his freshman year, racking up 36 tackles, six for loss, and a sack. Coaches started him the first six games of his sophomore season, and he excelled (19 tackles, six for loss, four sacks) until suffering a season-ending injury. Healthy for his junior campaign, Granderson started all 13 games for the Cowboys and earned first-team All-Mountain West honors after posting 77 tackles, 16 for loss, 9.5 sacks, two interceptions, and two pass breakups. While Granderson's statistics were down a bit in 2018 (40 tackles, 7.5 for loss, three sacks, one interception, two pass breakups in 11 starts), he still was voted second-team all-conference.

He's 2 years away from producing. Minimum.

Is that how long his jail sentence will be?

If the coaches feel comfortable with the facts enough to give him big cash to sign on with the Saints they must like his story. I hope he's innocent for the team's sake, as well as his. If he's found guilty then I hope he pays and learns his lesson.

Innocent until proven guilty is hard to follow with social media and opinions everywhere you look....unfortunately, a lot of it is just ignorant uninformed opinions that people read and take it as fact!
