He's was a 7th round pick. His career highlight was sacking Johnny manziel in Preseason. So it was just a good publicity selection.
WTF is this ... Michael Sam Story

I just think he was overrated by the media because he played in the SEC and was named co-defensive player of the year. He only had one year of production (senior year), he wasn't sacking the quarterback on a consistent level (nine sacks in three games, 2.5 in the other eleven games) and he was surrounded by talented played like Kony Ealy, Shane Ray and Marcus Golden. That's three players who were picked in the first two rounds of the draft.
Add his underwhelming athleticism (a 25.5 inch vertical and 1.75 s 10-yards split shows lack of explosivness) and it's unstandable that he wasn't drafted earlier.
shhh it was his going public on the talk show circuit that was the issue....

Let me guess the gay agenda: Everyone knows there are gays everywhere including the NFL. Their agenda may be to come freely from the closet without risk and proceed to live their lives with dignity, don't you think? That would be a gay agenda, wouldn't it??
living life with dignity is a basic need/want of all people i fail to see how that makes it some kind of a "gay agenda".

Well the Gay Agenda is clear I think, they want you to be better dressed and groomed and then they want to have sex with all of you...

Sam is not an NFL talent.
His blaming others skills are off the charts though.
He 'came out' in college and he only did so in the pros because a reporter was going to do it for him anyway. All the Oprah crap is 100% on him.
No one wants a circus for a 7th rounder who can't play and can't even handle a month of CFL.
This isn't about 'gay'. Belichick would sign him in a second if he was going to be a 10 sack guy. This is about a no-talent player who abused his weak sauce 15 minutes of fame.
I get that Goodell is stupid enough to make this deal. I don't see the Rams going along with it. They took a flyer on a productive college player who could not cut it in the pros. I think that is what the 7th round is for in the first place.

Does it really matter. He proven he wasn't nothing but a good college player. That can't play in the CFL or NFL.
