And he is looking for revenge twice a year. 

Quote

"The Dolphins gave him a promise that they'll take him if he's around at [the 25th pick]," Mitchell Butler III said hours before the draft started on Saturday, adding that Darius Butler had received that promise from Dolphins brass.


I am guessing BB isn't gonna have a hard time motiving his newest CB when they play the Dolphins.

This sounds like another Braylon Edwards scenario.  I think there's more to it than what's being said.

i thought that was stupid that they would leek to the press that they were promised to be drafted. the dolphins may have just not drafted him because of this reason alone.

Let me get this straight. 

A rookie corner back wants "revenge" twice a year?

A corner. 

Yeah.  I'm quakin'.

You and me both...

Any promise told to any prospect leading up to the draft should be taken with a grain of salt. Same goes for every comment leaked to the press about where a prospect is going to be selected. Some are good intentioned lies that can't be met due to other changes in the draft, while others are deliberate misinformation designed to get a player to slide or rise in accordance with the team's needs.

That's just the nature of the Biz...
