For some reason he lost his heart for the game his rookie season and it never reappeared.

Purely as a matter of interest – does anybody know how much money this guy got for doing nothing in the NFL? 6th pick of the draft, or something?

Dont know the exact figures but he sure got a hell lot of money pre-rookie wage scale. I am thinking upwards of $20 mill.

Sacks in the preseason mean squat. Going against second rate offensive lines. Preseason play is 10000x different than when the bullets are live. We’ll see how he does then. There is a reason that that he dropped from being considered for the top five of the draft. He takes 3/4 of the snaps he plays in off. Plain and simple.

No they dont count but i think Coples is the anti-Ghoslston. Come-on. He’s even strip sack Cam newton on last sunday.
