Was only about 10 minutes long. Doing individual interviews now. There will surely be more video available later.

One kinda funny moment just now...

One of the reporters asked "Do you regret not taking the Wonderlic test seriously?"

Claiborne responded "Knowing now how much heat I was gonna get for it... [big smile]Well -Yeah."

Got a chuckle out of the entire room.

i wonder why they don't just do away with the wonderlic? every year a low score leaks out and every year the low scorer gets picked high anyways. Plus every GM is usually quoted saying they DGAF about the test scores. Why do it then?

Because many teams do care about it, especially at certain positions.

Hardly.

This is the time of year when, traditionally, Jerry Jones has gone out of his way to up the immature douchebag/future-criminal population a couple of notches by bringing in a few guys who otherwise would've resided 100+ miles away. Glad that been delayed for at least one day.

I've always been good at compartmentalizing being a fan of individual players, but not their teams.

I think Mo Claiborne is a class act and was tearing up right along with him when he got the word of the trade-up to snag him. I'm happy Jerry brought in a high-character guy this time and hope it rubs off on others in the locker room.

Also happy Tampa shite the bed so the Saints don't have to see him twice a year.

IMO - Best case scenario for Claiborne in Dallas: Claiborne plays outstanding and puts up phenomenal stats from the get-go... and is clearly one of only a couple of quality players on a Dallas team that continues to struggle. Increases the likelihood that he'll want to try to sign with a winner (like the Saints, for example) when his Rookie contract is up.

Absolutely, speaks highly for his whole family.

ETA: I have always been a big Corey Webster fan. I believe Mo is right up there with him, and may even surpass him before it's over.

Mo represents himself well and is well spoken. Les Can't talk. I wonder what his test score would be.
