Browns roll the dice with Antonio Callaway-Day Three

I was trying to sleep (not all that successfully) and woke up having missed the fourth round of the NFL Draft.

I was surprised to see the Cleveland Browns make a move up into the fourth round to gamble on the off-field issue plagued wide receiver Antonio Callaway of Florida.
The cost was reasonable, shipping the sixth-rounder obtained from Indianapolis last night to New England to move up in the fourth round,

Antonio Callaway on pure football talent ranks with the two receivers (D.J. Moore and Calvin Ridley) chosen in the first round.
Callaway has no questions about his hands, his speed or route running and he scored touchdowns for the Gators via the rush, pass, reception and kick and punt returns- with the ball in his hands, Callaway is dynamic.
If his head is on straight, Callaway could be an impact player for the Browns.

However, this is where he becomes a question mark- Callaway missed all of 2017 in Gainesville for using stolen credit card information to buy things at the student bookstore and that comes after previous issues with sexual assault (cleared when the victim did not show at a hearing) and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Not exactly a resume' of a solid citizen and not one that you would think would be part of a "culture change" either for a Cleveland team that gave the definition of a 'safe' draft during the first two days.
John Dorsey took a chance in Kansas City with a similarly talented and troubled player in Tyreek Hill and was rewarded with a tremendous career so far from Hill, so Dorsey is not adverse to trying to give a player with a past record an opportunity provided that he has the talent that is to make giving him that opportunity a high reward for the team.

I'm normally a person that doesn't want players with off the field issues on the team.
I still believe that we should want players to represent the city etc without these issues and looking at the other three teams in the division, each of those teams have players that I wouldn't want for those reasons alone.
You know what else those three teams do that the Browns usually don't- win football games.
We may have reached the point in the league where in order to win occasionally you need to take some risks as far as attitude and issues and as sad as it is, might be almost mandatory to do these things on occasion.

As long as Antonio Callaway can keep on the right path, his talent makes this worth the risk, but I would make sure that Callaway knows that there is a short leash in Cleveland and any problems would mean dismissal.
Assuming all of that is the case, I reluctantly approve of taking the chance.

I'll be back tonight with the other picks and tonight's boxing challenge.
