Every pick in the NFL draft, even those that are seemingly safe, factors in the balance of risk versus reward.
Some prospects in the 2014 draft, however, might be labeled with more concerns than others.
While a “red flag” on a potential draft pick can constitute a limited physical attribute or a lack of on-field production in college, the term is most often used to describe players who come in with character and/or injury concerns.
All of the players on this list have had off-field issues, come in with injury concerns and/or are older than a typical draft prospect. Despite their risk factors, however, all of these players have the talent that should warrant an NFL team’s draft pick.

For anyone whose appreciation for the NFL was cemented by games televised on CBS and announced by Pat Summerall and John Madden, the name Sandy Grossman is a familiar one. Grossman typically got his mention when Summerall ran through the credits after the game was essentially over — his own twist on Don Meredith crooning, “Turn out the lights, the party’s over.”
Per multiple reports, Grossman has died.
He served as the director for the legendary Summerall-Madden duo at CBS and FOX. Grossman also directed a whopping 10 Super Bowls.
He also directed 18 NBA Finals and five Stanley Cup Finals. During his career, Grossman won eight Emmy awards.
But he’ll be most remembered for 21 seasons with Summerall and Madden. Here’s their last bit of work together, the final drive of Super Bowl XXXVI between the Patriots and the Rams.

Dean Blandino, the NFL’s head of officiating, said although the officials properly tested the footballs in the AFC Championship, those tests were not logged.
By Ben VolinGlobe Staff January 30, 2015
PHOENIX — Dean Blandino, the NFL’s head of officiating, finally spoke publicly on Thursday for the first time since the Patriots’ “Deflategate” incident broke two weeks ago.
And while he was hamstrung because of the NFL’s investigation led by attorney Ted Wells, Blandino stated that the officials did everything properly before the AFC Championship game, that the Colts had footballs tested at halftime along with the Patriots, that the NFL will discuss logging the results of each ball test in the future, and, to his knowledge, this was not a “sting” operation by the Colts and the NFL.
“The issue came up during the first half, as far as I know,” Blandino said at a news conference. “There was an issue that was brought up during the first half, a football came into question, and then the decision was made to test them at halftime. There’s an investigation going on, can’t really get into specifics.”
Blandino said that referee Walt Anderson did everything properly in regard to testing the footballs before the game on Jan. 18. Each team provided 24 footballs to Anderson 2 hours and 15 minutes before the game, and Anderson personally tested each one and marked them approved for use, Blandino said.
“From everything that we reviewed and all the information that we have, the balls were properly tested and marked prior to the game,” Blandino said. “We’ve done our part, in terms of looking at what Walt Anderson and the crew did and how things were handled, and they were handled properly from that perspective. Everything that comes out of that will be made public.”

Nate Solder TD should not have counted, official says
However, Blandino confirmed the results of each ball test were not “logged,” and the NFL is essentially forced to take Anderson at his word. The NFL’s competition committee will discuss at the owners meetings in March whether the officials should log the results of each ball test, or if video should be used in the testing process.
“Everything’s on the table,” Blandino said. “With the amount of attention this has gotten, the committee is going to review it, and we’ll see.”
Blandino also confirmed that both teams had footballs tested at halftime, but he could not divulge anything else because of the ongoing investigation. He confirmed that the two-minute delay after halftime was because of the deflated ball issue.
“It was related to the testing that took place at halftime,” he said. “They wanted to make sure they had a right ball, a New England ball, and they wanted to make sure it was properly inflated. At the beginning of the second half, I believe that there was a kicking ball on the ground, and they wanted to make sure they got a Patriot football into the game.”
Some reports suggested the Colts became aware of a deflation problem in their Nov. 16 matchup against the Patriots, and warned the NFL ahead of time to catch the Patriots in the act in the AFC Championship.
Blandino said that simply isn’t true.
“I was not personally aware of any issue after that [Nov. 16] game,” Blandino said. “I don’t know where that came from.”
The “logging” issue is not the only one that will be discussed at the owners meetings. The entire ball custody process will be discussed and open for review.

Having defeated the Seattle Seahawks 28-24 Sunday night to win Super Bowl XLIX, the New England Patriots reportedly provided an incredible storybook ending to the NFL’s credibility. “Honestly, you couldn’t have scripted it any better in a movie,” said ESPN analyst Adam Schefter, adding that after a year rife with scandal—including high-profile domestic violence cases involving Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson, the league’s ongoing concussion epidemic, and fresh allegations of cheating against New England—seeing the Patriots celebrate a fourth Super Bowl title was a fitting end to the NFL’s integrity. “Given what we’ve seen over the past six months, this is the perfect way—really the only way—for it to finish. Unbelievable.” Sources also confirmed that witnessing a smiling Roger Goodell hand the Lombardi Trophy to Patriots owner Robert Kraft was just the cherry on top after watching the final few seconds of the NFL’s dignity and self-respect tick away.

As the world awaits Tom Brady's expected appeal of his Deflategate suspension, a significant segment of our sports population remains shocked that the New England Patriots quarterback was given four games not only for cheating but also for not cooperating with the investigation into his cheating.
Where have these people been the past eight months? Have they paid absolutely no attention to the seismic shift that has occurred on the sports landscape since Sept. 8, the day the Ray Rice elevator video came to light?
Have they not noticed that what once warranted a two-game suspension now can get you 10? The two-game suspension of Rice for punching his then-fiancée in an Atlantic City elevator absolutely should have been much more, and had it happened now instead of then, it would be.
The NFL recently gave Greg Hardy a 10-game suspension for, among other awful things, choking his former girlfriend and throwing her onto a futon covered with semi-automatic rifles. It's natural to wonder whether it shouldn't have been a lifetime ban, but 10 games this coming season, if it holds up on appeal, does amount to stern punishment for a man who already missed all but one game last season for his atrocious behavior.

The New Orleans Saints host the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night Football. The spread is not yet available because we do not know the status of Drew Brees. He did rehab work with Dr. James Andrews, and seems intent on playing. Until his status is known, though, this will be a significant question mark. The Saints are 9-2 SU in their last 11 games against the Cowboys.

Look, the truth is that the NFL is dotting their Is and crossing their Ts. It's extraordinarily unlikely that anything asked or said this evening will make a difference to the Chargers and the NFL as it pertains to Los Angeles. This is your opportunity to tell them that you're angry and frustrated by the experience.
Also, don't excessively rely on the relocation bylaws. The NFL wrote them, and they can be changed at a moment's notice to suit the NFL's needs.
Still there are some good questions to ask. Here are 10 that should be asked, even if no one really answers them.
What is the Relocation Fee for Los Angeles?
Any real stadium proposal entails three key elements: a site, a rendering, and a financing plan. By this standard, while the Chargers have examined 9 different sites, only three produced renderings (Mission Valley, Downtown, and West Chula Vista), and only one produced a financing plan (Mission Valley). Does the NFL know the Chargers have actually offered San Diego only 1 proposal over 14 years?
For Mr. Grubman - in April, you said on the Fred Roggin Show that (paraphrasing) "there was a deal the Chargers would accept. Whether there was the time or the will to present that deal is the question." If so, did the Chargers tell the NFL what that plan was, and was it clearly conveyed during your meeting with the Citizen's Stadium Advisory Group and/or local elected officials?
Does the NFL believe the Chargers acted in good faith toward San Diego over the last 5 years, while the team discussed options with AEG in downtown Los Angeles, Stan Kroenke in Inglewood, and then for at least the last year in Carson?
What is the NFL's view on a team negotiating in good faith, when the team in question has spent between less than $20 million over 14 years in their home market, and spent over $20 million on one plan in Carson in the last year-plus?
If the NFL or Chargers really cared about San Diego having a realistic chance to keep the team in 2015, why didn't either entity publicly state in January that a deal needs to be reached no later than April 1, which would allow 9 months for a Citizen's Initiative to qualify for a Special Election, prior to the NFL's decision on relocation?
Have the Chargers indicated to the NFL what Fabiani has said locally in the last week - that if they were in San Diego in 2016, they would pursue a Citizen's initiative with their own proposal. If this is the case, then doesn't that mean there's at least 1 option they'd be willing to pursue and have not exhausted all options in their home market?
Has the Spanos family indicated to the NFL, or provided evidence that San Diego is no longer an economically viable market even with a new stadium, and is that why they are pursuing relocation to Los Angeles?
Is the NFL willing to consider providing additional assistance to the San Diego market, considering the unique difficulties of securing tax revenue and the comparative (versus other owners in the NFL) lack of financing available from the Spanos family?
What actual value do these meetings have to the NFL, and will they actually make a difference to the NFL or other owners?
Use these question if you like. Hope to see some of you downtown at Spreckels Theatre tonight. Be courteous and respectful. Don't thow Oakland or St. Louis fans under the bus. 😁

Dean Blandino, the NFL's vice president of officiating, released a spirited defense of the league's officiating Friday, citing internal statistics that suggest officials have made what he called "a very small number of mistakes" in a season rampant with controversy.
"There is a perception now that officiating is not very good at the moment," Blandino said during a two-minute statement on a weekly video produced by the league. "But the reality is that the officiating is very good."
Blandino's comments came after NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said multiple times in recent weeks that he wants officiating to improve.
According to Blandino, officiating crews are averaging 4.3 mistakes in roughly 160 total plays per game this season, based on the league's confidential grading method.
The 2015 season has featured near-weekly instances of questionable calls, most recently a face mask penalty that extended Thursday night's game between the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions by one play, but Blandino said he considers them a statistical exception.
"We are talking about a handful of plays that have happened in high-profile situations," he said. "Those have been mistakes. We own them. We have to make the corrections and the adjustments to make sure they don't happen again."
One example of a call the officials got right, Blandino said, was a debated offensive pass interference call against New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski during Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos.
"He's going to go into the defender, use his forearm to push off, extend his arm and create separation," Blandino said. "This is a foul for offensive pass interference. Whether he uses the forearm or an open hand, the key is the extension, the extended arm into the defensive player to create that separation."
Any time a receiver extends his arm to create space, offensive pass interference should be called, Blandino said.

In September, Alabama coach Nick Saban dropped a pretty strong hint about the prerequisites for a return to the NFL when he said that, if the Dolphins had signed quarterback Drew Brees in 2006, Saban would still be coaching there. While unlikely that Saban would be in Miami 10 years later, Brees and the coach who signed him, Sean Payton, have spent the last decade together.
That’s because success in the NFL is premised on having a quarterback who can play, and Saban learned that during his failed two years with the Dolphins. That’s the word — failed — that surely haunts Saban now.
He has succeeded unlike any college coach since Bear Bryant, but Bryant won six national titles in an era where the game wasn’t nearly as competitive as it is now because the recruiting process wasn’t nearly as intense and the universe of true contenders wasn’t nearly as vast. So does Saban stick around in the hopes of meeting or beating Bryant, or does Saban try to fix the one glaring flaw from his coaching career?
“Saban often tells the story about washing cars at the [service] station [owned by his father],” Monte Burke writes at page 15 of his excellent 2015 Saban biography, “that if he left so much as a tiny spot on a car, his father would make him rewash it entirely.”
Burke, on the next page, shares the tale of a drain near the station that Saban’s father wanted Nick and two other boys to clean out. The boys quickly removed the debris, but Nick stayed down in the hole, making sure every last bit of stuff was gone. “We’re going to do it right,” Saban told the others. “I don’t want to listen to it later on.”
Not matter how much satisfaction Saban takes in continuously climbing the same mountain at the college level, Saban knows there’s a large spot on the hood of his coaching record that only becomes more glaring as he continues the lather/rinse/repeat process of winning a national championship, taking a day off, getting his returning players situated in classes again, and resuming the process of recruiting the next wave of players who will help him climb the mountain again, for as long as many times as the 64-year-old coach can pull it off.
So will he at some point yield to that desire to rewash the car at the NFL level? It hinges on having a great quarterback, or a good plan to get one. And with a job currently open in Tampa featuring Jameis Winston, a young, potential franchise quarterback whom Saban failed to keep in Alabama, the question becomes whether, at some point in the next day or so, Saban shows interest in coaching the Buccaneers — and whether the Buccaneers would pull the plug on the apparent ascension of offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter to instead catch the large fish who may be willing to jump into their boat.
No one but Saban knows what he truly wants to do, and Saban routinely agonizes over whether to stay or go. His mind can change, quickly.
Burke’s biography opens with an account of how Saban went from not being the Alabama coach nine years ago to taking the job. His wife, Terry, had a huge role in the return to college life, working directly with the late Mal Moore, the athletic director from Tuscaloosa who lured Saban after Rich Rodriguez turned down the job.
“She made it clear to Moore that Saban was miserable in the NFL and dearly missed coaching in college,” Burke writes at page 6 of the biography. “She also made it clear that she wanted out. In the NFL, the coach’s wife had no real role in the community. On a college campus — particularly at a place like Alabama — the coach’s wife was a figure of prominence, a queen bee. Terry also believed that a college town was a much healthier place to raise their two children.”
Nine years ago, Terry got what she wanted. What she currently wants, for herself, for Saban, and the family, will be a factor in whether and for how long he stays at Alabama.
Still, the spot on the hood of the car remains. And as Saban instantly goes from a precipice with which he has become all too familiar back to the valley of 0-0, the question remains: Will he start climbing again, or will he rewash the car?

That’s because success in the NFL is premised on having a quarterback who can play, and Saban learned that during his failed two years with the Dolphins. That’s the word — failed — that surely haunts Saban now.
He has succeeded unlike any college coach since Bear Bryant, but Bryant won six national titles in an era where the game wasn’t nearly as competitive as it is now because the recruiting process wasn’t nearly as intense and the universe of true contenders wasn’t nearly as vast. So does Saban stick around in the hopes of meeting or beating Bryant, or does Saban try to fix the one glaring flaw from his coaching career?
“Saban often tells the story about washing cars at the [service] station [owned by his father],” Monte Burke writes at page 15 of his excellent 2015 Saban biography, “that if he left so much as a tiny spot on a car, his father would make him rewash it entirely.”
Burke, on the next page, shares the tale of a drain near the station that Saban’s father wanted Nick and two other boys to clean out. The boys quickly removed the debris, but Nick stayed down in the hole, making sure every last bit of stuff was gone. “We’re going to do it right,” Saban told the others. “I don’t want to listen to it later on.”

1. LOS ANGELES RAMS-a: Jared Goff, QB, California
Last year, when the Journal Sentinel surveyed 19 NFL personnel executives regarding the best player in the draft, QB Jameis Winston didn't receive a vote. In the last month, the JS surveyed 19 again and Goff didn't receive a vote. Rams coach Jeff Fisher hopes Goff's rookie season is as solid as Winston's was.
2. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES-b: Carson Wentz, QB, North Dakota State
GM Howie Roseman gave up a king's ransom for Wentz, an immense talent with just 23 starts at an FCS school. Wentz had two votes in the aforementioned poll.
3. SAN DIEGO CHARGERS: Jalen Ramsey, S, Florida State
Ramsey drew seven votes in the best-player poll, twice as many as the runner-up, Laremy Tunsil. Bill Polian, the mentor of Chargers GM Tom Telesco, is on record calling LT Ronnie Stanley the No. 1 player in the draft. DeForest Buckner makes sense here, too.
4. DALLAS COWBOYS: Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Ohio State
Yes, the Cowboys will struggle rushing the passer during Randy Gregory's four-game suspension. Elliott provides immediate impact as Jerry Jones hunts for an elusive Super Bowl behind Tony Romo, 36.
5. JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS: Joey Bosa, DE, Ohio State
GM David Caldwell and coach Gus Bradley take Bosa, who drew 12 of 17 votes in a Journal Sentinel poll on the best pass rusher in the draft. Jaguars bypass Myles Jack, whose problematic knee rings too close to the blown knee suffered by top pick Dante Fowler in 2015.
6. BALTIMORE RAVENS: Laremy Tunsil, T, Mississippi
The Ravens need defense, but there's depth galore in the D-line class and next to none in the O-line, where Tunsil is the leading man.
7. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS: DeForest Buckner, DE, Oregon
The 49ers will take the best defensive player left. That's Buckner, the talented and tall 5-technique that GM Trent Baalke missed on with Kentwan Balmer (29th pick) in 2008 as the 49ers' director of player personnel under Scot McCloughan.
8. CLEVELAND BROWNS-c: Paxton Lynch, QB, Memphis
The Browns need everything, but the new regime starts with another quarterback. They have 11 more draft choices.
9. TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS: Vernon Hargreaves, CB, Florida
If Hargreaves succeeds, it will be on the basis of resourcefulness rather than sheer talent. The Bucs are in dire need of a cornerback, where they signed ex-Dolphin Brent Grimes to start alongside Jude Adjei-Barimah, a rookie free agent last year.
10. NEW YORK GIANTS: Leonard Floyd, OLB, Georgia
The Giants opt for the versatile, untapped talents of Floyd to beef up a tired pass rush. For now, at least, the Giants soldier along with Marshall Newhouse as their starter at RT. He had 84.2% playing time in '15.
11. CHICAGO BEARS: A'Shawn Robinson, DE, Alabama
With Robinson entrenched at DE in their 3-4 base, defensive coordinator Vic Fangio would be big and rangy up front because he already has DE Akiem Hicks and NT Eddie Goldman.
12. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS: Sheldon Rankins, DT, Louisville
Rankins is that classic 3-technique in a 4-3 defense the Saints have sought for years.
13. MIAMI DOLPHINS-d: Jack Conklin, T-G, Michigan State
The Dolphins are fine at tackle with Branden Albert on the left side and Ja'Wuan James on the right. They don't have anyone at LG, where the hard-charging Conklin will start until an opening presents itself outside.
14. OAKLAND RAIDERS: Myles Jack, ILB, UCLA
When Jack dropped here, GM Reggie McKenzie scuttled his draft plan and went with a player that finished third (2½ votes) in the best-player-in-the-draft survey. Now his knee needs to hold.
15. TENNESSEE TITANS-e: Ronnie Stanley, T, Notre Dame
New GM Jon Robinson already has a left tackle in Taylor Lewan, the 11th pick in 2014. The coaches can sort out who plays where. QB Marcus Mariota is the big winner.
16. DETROIT LIONS: Jarran Reed, DT, Alabama
Reed provides the physical, foreboding presence the Lions need inside alongside Haloti Ngata, who will be entering his 11th season.
17. ATLANTA FALCONS: Reggie Ragland, ILB, Alabama
Darron Lee might be a better fit for a Dan Quinn-coached defense, but the Falcons opt for the superior run stopper in Ragland.
18. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS: Taylor Decker, T, Ohio State
It has been years since the Colts felt good about their O-line. With Decker, they have a rugged, run-blocking force that should start at any of four positions.
19. BUFFALO BILLS: Darron Lee, ILB, Ohio State
Rex Ryan has inside dope on Clemson pass rushers Shaq Lawson and Kevin Dodd because his son Seth is a walk-on WR for the Tigers. Lee isn't a big man, but with his intellect he can handle any defense the head man can cook up.
20. NEW YORK JETS: Shaq Lawson, OLB, Clemson
Second-year GM Mike Maccagnan likes Penn State QB Christian Hackenberg, according to one of his peers. Does he like him this much? Nope, so he takes another rusher, albeit one with a bad shoulder that could require surgery.
21. WASHINGTON REDSKINS: Vernon Butler, DE, Louisiana Tech
GM Scot McCloughan suffered losses in the D-line. In this scenario, he selects Butler over UCLA's Kenny Clark on the basis of greater versatility and pass rush.
22. HOUSTON TEXANS: Karl Joseph, S, West Virginia
Could use more speed at WR, which is in short supply at the position this year. Will Fuller is the fastest wideout and receives a long study, but GM Rick Smith and coach Bill O'Brien opt for the heavy-hitting Joseph – torn ACL and all.
23. MINNESOTA VIKINGS: Laquon Treadwell, WR, Mississippi
The Vikings have a cluster of speedy WRs in Stefon Diggs, Jarius Wright, Charles Johnson and Cordarrelle Patterson. What they need is someone with the bulk like Treadwell to body people inside.
24. CINCINNATI BENGALS: Corey Coleman, WR, Baylor
The Bengals consider help for their defensive front seven. It's a thin year at WR, however, and with Marvin Jones and Mohamed Sanu having departed Andy Dalton needs someone else outside ot

Tom Brady will appeal the four-game suspension handed down by a judge as a result of his role in Deflategate, according to a report on BostonGlobe-com.
NFL Players Association attorney Theodore B. Olson told ABC News Monday on “Good Morning America” that they plan to file the appeal later today, according to a report on ESPN-com.
The appeal will be reviewed by 13 Second Circuit judges. Seven must agree that the appeal has merit before it can be heard in front of the full roster of active judges, according to the Globe report.
The NFL determined the Patriots used underinflated footballs in the AFC championship game in January 2015. The Patriots beat the Indianapolis Colts, 45-7, then won the Super Bowl two weeks later.
A three-judge panel of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan ruled 2-1 on April 25 that Commissioner Roger Goodell did not deprive Brady of “fundamental fairness” with his procedural rulings and upheld a four-game suspension.
“Our role is not to determine for ourselves whether Brady participated in a scheme to deflate footballs or whether the suspension imposed by the Commissioner should have been for three games or five games or none at all. Nor is it our role to second-guess the arbitrator’s procedural rulings,” Judge Barrington D. Parker wrote in the majority opinion. “Our obligation is limited to determining whether the arbitration proceedings and award met the minimum legal standards established by the Labor Management Relations Act.”
The panel said the contract between players and the NFL gives the commissioner authority that is “especially broad.”
The Patriots open the 2016 season Sept. 11 at Arizona, followed by games at home against the Dolphins, Texans and Bills. Brady’s backup at quarterback is Jimmy Garoppolo, who appeared in 11 games over his first two seasons but hasn’t made a start.

The NFL draft will be conducted in a virtual format, with team personnel working from their homes.
In a memo sent to the 32 teams Monday, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell outlined procedures for the April 23-25 draft. The guidelines include no group gatherings.
"We have reviewed this matter in the past few days with both the competition committee and CEC [a group of league executives]," Goodell wrote, "and this will confirm that clubs will conduct their draft operations remotely, with club personnel separately located in their homes.

The Eagles' announced their decision to cut Jackson on Friday shortly after NJ-com published a report outlining his alleged connections with suspected gangs members. in Los Angeles. To the apparent displeasure of Ward, this report and its possible role in the Eagles' decision to cut ties with Jackson was discussed during ESPN's initial coverage of the development.
From his profane rebuke to Jaworksi to his feelings about the Eagles cutting loose Jackson while keeping Riley Cooper, here is a look at several of Ward's fiery tweets.
