I think it's likely everything compounding together. The distraction concerns are probably part of it. The offense that they ran also meant that he's still likely going to need to learn a lot more to get used to / acclimated with under center and pro style offenses. I imagine there's also other things (NFL teams often don't like taking someone getting that much extra outside attention for things other than their actual play on the field). Also, just a lot of teams don't need QB as their top focus.Even if there are character/distraction concerns, this drop is freaking weird. I wish someone would leak his interviews at this point.
Character issues, which NFL teams really aren't fond of given negative press, the chances for one or multiple suspensions, and such. (He's had more than one issue re: allegations of sexual assault: once in high school and another time his freshman year, which led to UVA flat out dismissing him - meaning there must have been some fire where there was smoke with that one - ... as one scout/analyst put it: “Green has denied the accusations, but decisions on these sorts of risks go to a team’s security departments and then, eventually, to the owners. And some owners won’t want to take a risk, even if a guy has been cleared, especially in cases where there’s more than one incident, [...] For that reason, fair or not, Green is off some team’s boards.”)Really surprised Green is still on the board
