Over the past few months, thousands of NFL prospects have been evaluated not only on their abilities, but also on their families situations and their character issues. One player in particular has been in the spotlight more than others, his name is Darren McFadden, and probably unlike many players, his off-field concerns might be garnering a larger spotlight than his talents. Hopefully, you saw the little interview special McFadden had with ESPN’s Michael Smith. Many personal topics were up for discussion, here’s a little rundown:

1. He has been in two bar brawls in the since 2006 – One involving a brother’s argument with a bouncer, the other involving someone that tried to steal another brother’s car

2. He has brother’s that were in rival gangs – none other than the Bloods and the Crips

3. He has two illegitimate children, for which he has claimed responsibility for without ever having a blood test

On top of all of this, his mother has come out and said that she did not want him to be drafted by the Jets or Raiders for fear of the cities being too big. She also proclaimed that she would love to see Darren end up in Dallas. So, Darren McFadden’s mother wants him to end up in Dallas with none other than Pac Man Jones as a possible teammate, coupled with the inevitable scene from Gangland with his two brothers, while possibly also preparing for the next installment of paternity tests on Maury.(I hope he uses a future end-zone celebration if “he is not the father”) Oh, and she added that they plan to move the whole family in with Darren, that is 11 siblings, a number high enough for my stylebook to tell me I have to write the actual digits and not the words.
