I think it's premature to write him off completely. He will wind up on some NFL roster this year or next.

Maybe, my guess is that we'll see him on the surreal life before he ever plays a game in the NFL.

i think this was his problem in camp. all he did was complain he wasn't getting his time with the first unit, and he sulked. no incentives made from the kickoff team, and he knew it.

if he had a regular contract, he might (a big might) have just worked without worrying so mihc about getting paid.

Clarett wanted on robbery charges
/ Associated Press
Posted: 23 minutes ago

COLUMBUS, Ohio - Former Ohio State University running back Maurice Clarett was accused of using a gun to rob two people in an alley behind a bar early Sunday, police said.

Clarett, 22, who helped the Buckeyes win the national championship in 2002, fled when the bar owner or manager, who knew Clarett and the victims, came into the alley and identified him shortly before 2 a.m.
According to police, Clarett left the scene in a white sport utility vehicle with two other men and got only a cell phone from his alleged victims, who weren't injured. He was wanted on two counts of suspicion of aggravated robbery.

Clarett sat out the 2003 season after he was charged with misdemeanor falsification for filing a police report claiming that more than $10,000 in clothing, CDs, cash and stereo equipment was stolen from a car he borrowed from a local dealership. He later pleaded guilty to a lesser charge.

Ohio State suspended Clarett for misleading investigators, and for receiving special benefits worth thousands of dollars from a family friend.

He later began an unsuccessful legal fight that went to the U.S. Supreme Court to be allowed in the NFL early. Clarett was chosen by the Denver Broncos in last year's draft, but the team cut him in August.

By the way, "Clarett #21" Broncos jerseys are selling at a large discount in Denver. Get 'em now before he's convicted!

But money eventually became an issue, especially for all of Clarett's three personal trainers. None of them -- Poliquin, Chad Ikei and Todd Durkin -- was ever paid for his services
