Take 5: Time for character or a bunch of characters?
By: ERIC BREIER - Staff Writer | ∞
Chargers general manager A.J. Smith has said good character is an important trait in the players he acquires. It's becoming more obvious by the day, isn't it? Staff writer Eric Breier suggests five people Smith might want to keep his eye on as potential future Bolts.
5. Joe Cullen
The Chargers may be in the market for a coach (or many) if the team doesn't go deep into the playoffs. So the Lions' defensive line coach doesn't like to wear clothes when he goes through the drive-thru. It's not like he's been arrested four times since December. Speaking of which ...
4. Chris Henry
The Bengals receiver has had four brushes with the law since December. But give the guy a break, he was probably just trying to fit in on the Bengals.
3. Jerry Porter
New coach Art Shell and Porter have gotten along like Paris Hilton and Shanna Moakler, as the receiver has been inactive or suspended the entire season. Does that make Al Davis the Travis Barker of this relationship?
2. Reuben Droughns
The Browns running back recently had charges dropped against him in a domestic violence case. In May, a jury acquitted him of drunken driving charges. If he's half as good at eluding defenders who wouldn't be interested in him?
1. Terrell Owens
An accidental overdose, being late to practice, chewing out assistant coaches on the sidelines. This guy makes "Passions" look like C-SPAN. We're sure he'd get along great with Philip Rivers, LaDainian Tomlinson and Co.
