An NFL scout told Pro Football Weekly’s Nolan Nawrocki the following about Alabama outside linebacker Courtney Upshaw –
“The more Courtney Upshaw talked (in the interview process), the more I got scared,” the scout told Nawrocki. “He has a lot of distractions in his life. There are a lot of concerns there. We need an edge guy, but we wouldn’t touch him in the first (round). I’d have hesitations in the second where we’re picking, after hearing him talk about grabbing his girlfriend by the hair.”
