Charles Rogers


Ok so I'm not surprised that he got cut, I am surprised that he was the2nd overall pick. My old roommate said that this guy was "sick, just sick" in college. Was he really good enough to be the 2nd overall pick? Hell, given his awful performance in the pros I'd say a fourth rd pick would have been too much.

Hindsight's 20/20.

coming out of school, nobody questioned the Lion's choice of Rogers w/ the 2d overall pick.

two collarbone injuries, a ton of downtime (and some drugs, too), and a considerable amount of money later, he was a different player.

he didn't respond to those circumstances the way you'd expect from the 2d overall pick.

word is, Saban is possibly interested in him... since he recruited him at Michigan State.  maybe Charles is just one of those guys who needs to be "coached up" and isn't "self motivated" enough.  obviously there's some talent there.

When he came out of college, Angelo was interested in Rogers, so it was assumed he might still have interest in him. When asked about any interest in him Angelo said "We already have enough fast guys who are always hurt"....gotta love the candor....
