WR prospect DeAndre Hopkins potentially has major Off-Field Problem
 

Clemson wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and Rutgers wideout Mark Harrison were the NFL Draft prospects who trashed their Indianapolis hotel room at the Scouting Combine in February, ESPN’s Adam Schefter's reported Thursday.

Hopkins, in an interview with FoxSports.com, denied any involvement.

Earlier reports, by Yahoo! Sports and the National Football Post, did not identify the players.

Jeff Foster, president of National Football Scouting and the man who runs the Combine, told Yahoo! that there was no material damage to the room, but the players' actions were still deemed "very disappointing." He said urine and feces were strewn throughout the bathroom at the Crowne Plaza, and partially eaten food was found on one of the beds.

The National Football Post reported that one of the players dodged questions about the incident at his pro day.

Of the two players, Hopkins needs to be the most worried about his draft stock falling. He is a potential first-round pick and could go as high as No. 27, to the Houston Texans. Harrison is a borderline seventh-round prospect.

It looks like some NFL team wants him to fall in the draft because they are interested.

Wow, what a cynic you are Barrett. But then who really knows, maybe these "rumors" were actually started by one Bob McNair ?

The timing on this stuff is just too questionable. Nobody said a word when it happened, and then the week of the draft this "story" breaks. Another GM is already contradicting it saying Hopkins was long gone by the time it happened.

Every year teams leak stuff the week of the draft and the media runs with it. The amazing thing is that any of these GMs think another GM is dumb enough to pass on a guy because of draft week rumor.

At this point any team thinking about drafting Hopkins in the first round probably knows more about him than his mother, and not media article is going to change a draft board 6 days out.

OTOH, Hopkins is now shooting up the Raiders' draft board...:eek:

this came out before this combine rumor, but he did drop Hopkins from 26 to 37 in his rankings.
