A former University of Pittsburgh football player selected in the NFL Draft over the weekend has been charged in relation to an incident at a bar on the South Side area of downtown Pittsburgh.
Rashad Weaver, 23, who was drafted by the Tennessee Titans at No. 135 overall in the fourth-round of the 2021 NFL Draft on Saturday (May 1), was charged with one count of simple assault, according to a criminal complaint filed in Pittsburgh s magisterial district court Friday,
According to the criminal complaint, a woman, identified as

Let s get to it:
EDITOR S NOTE: In what has become an annual occurrence, I again provide what I hope serves as a cautionary tale for fans who have spent the last couple of days consuming the grades/critiques written in the immediate aftermath of the 2021 NFL Draft. In 1974, the NFL Draft was a two-day event, with the first five rounds being picked on the first day with the final 12 rounds picked the following day.
What the Steelers accomplished on those two days in 1974 deserves to be recognized as the greatest accumulation of talent in professional sports history. Four of the team s first five picks are enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, a fifth Hall of Famer was signed as an undrafted free agent, and a sixth is the scout who had his fingerprints all over everything.
