Jaylen Carter to be arrested for car crash that killed a Georgia staffer and fellow player

[odanny]

So this dude was racing a vehicle that he got in an accident with and killed 2 people. He left the accident scene early. He lied to the police. Stand up guy. He seems to have some serious character flaws. Some had predicted him as high as #1.

He needs to face the consequences of his poor decisions, which may include dropping him from the draft. Hopefully, there isn't an Alec Baldwin moment here.

If I read the article correctly, Carter was racing his car against the two people in another vehicle that crashed and ended up killing them. Street racing is dangerous but is a misdemeanor in Georgia so I don't see him getting charged with anything other than reckless driving.

This is the problem when people jump.to conclusions.

What problem is that?

Thwt which you point out. People are passing judgement without full details of the incident or even the law.

His draft stock will fall and some team is going to hit the lottery drafting him in the middle or late 1st round.

Until you give him a ten million dollar signing bonus. Then new legal troubles arise, unless the team is smart and finds him a babysitter, like the Cowboys literally did for Dez Bryant.

He's a top 5 talent. He's arguably the best player in this draft. If you can draft him in the mid to late 1st round you take that chance. So far all he's done is race his car. Yes it ended in tragedy for the person he was racing against but it's not an indication of anything other than him being a man in his early 20's. You never drove your car/motorcycle too fast in your 20's?

Yep
(and maybe not even that far)

You are right he very well still could go in the top 5

If he gave false reports to the Police....."I was a mile ahead" "I didn't see it" "I was not driving fast"..........but they prove otherwise (which was already stated on Sports talk last night), what is that? Obstruction? What is lying to Police? When did he lie? That night? days after?

This race/crash was 2:30AM. coming from where? Clubs? celebrating the Win over TCU?

Dude, it's his behavior after the accident that is in question.

A freak and a felon.

Zero chance he goes to jail. He is too talented. He can have the best lawyer a multi million dollar signing bonus will buy.
