The Dolphins traded a 7th round pick for Jacksonville Defensive Tackle, Tony McDaniel. Besides a high salary, a horrible injury history, and basic limited production, McDaniel also has a criminal past. In 2005, while attending the University of Tennessee (are we on a Tennessee streak here or what?), McDaniel was charged with aggravated assault after sucker punching a co-student during a pickup basketball game. The action happens at the 20 second mark of the video right underneath the basket. The scary part is the non-action of all the other people. The victim had a broken jaw in four places. McDaniel got a $3000 fine and probation.
UPDATE: After the incident, McDaniel chose to enter the NFL draft early, which prompted a civil lawsuit being filed by the victim for $800k in 2006. The civil lawsuit was settled in January 2008. Terms were undisclosed.
