Comments on: Te’o tried to do marketing deals before fake dead girlfriend story came out http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/01/29/teo-tried-to-do-marketing-deals-before-fake-dead-girlfriend-story-came-out/ ProFootballTalk on NBCSports.com Sun, 19 May 2013 19:48:53 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: jimw1016 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/01/29/teo-tried-to-do-marketing-deals-before-fake-dead-girlfriend-story-came-out/#comment-2304035 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 16:26:01 +0000 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1688753#comment-2304035 It’s been apparent he knew for some time and obviously trying to maike these deals before the story broke, only made things worse for him, in my opinion. No matter how he’s drafted, the kid is talented, I emphasize the word “kid”, he may or may not be signed in the top of the 1st round, or maybe not at all, but in the long run, he’ll do okay. Sports fans have forgiven much worse.

Not in the near future, and perhaps not in the long, long future. ” Greeny ” of The Mike & Mike show is always talking about the imaginary friend he had when he was growing up, perhaps there is a marketing opportunity there somehow!!

Like his girlfriend’s body? Like his body of work against Alabama?

He should be drafted fairly late, by some team not in the spotlight all the time. He’ll be enough of a distraction wherever he winds up, but his presence in a high-profile market will be a circus.

Anyhow undraftable in the NFL where there are so many players arrested. Just think about all those crimes that have been committed by players.
~
DWI’s, Assaults, Shooting yourself, Drugs. Plus many more Serious Crimes…
~
The point is this the NFL is not about Morals it’s about if you have serious abilities to play this Game…

Ring number 1, worst NFL QB Sanchez, Ring number 2, from the bench…Timmy Tebow, Ring number 3, T’eo the fantasy man, led by the Ringmaster himself, Crazy Rex! Perfect!

I wonder if he would be respected in the locker room? Can’t see how he would ever be viewed as a potential leader with all that happened. He had to know this story was about the break and had an awful game in the NCAA championship game. In the NFL, he and his teammates will face questions about his catfish situation all the time. Will that affect his play, will his teammates get tired of constantly talking about some rookie? I am in no way an expert, but I wouldn’t want my team to take him even in the second round.

I wouldn’t go that far. He won’t be the mid to late first round pick he probably would have been before his performance in the BCS title game and the whole hoax situation but some team will take a chance on him in the late second or third round based on his body of work IMO.

Hate to say it, but I don’t think this kid has the mentality to handle the pressure and hate he will receive at the next level.

I’m sure the agencies would have asked him about any potential negative information or stories leaking during the term of the contract. Also he may never get a marketing deal if he did lie to them now that the story is out there.
