Tharold Simon goes to Seahawks two days after arrest
APWhen former LSU cornerback Tharold Simon was arrested on Thursday night, we wondered if it would wind up causing him to slip in the draft.If it did, it didn't cause him to slip that much. Simon was pegged as a mid-round pick during the pre-draft scouting process and that's just where he wound up going. The Seahawks selected Simon with the fifth pick of the fifth round on Saturday afternoon.Simon was charged with public intimidation,[url=http://www.nsyuren.com/]cheap gucci shoes[/url], resisting an officer and unnecessary noise violation by police in Eunice,[url=http://www.tiluband.com/]moncler outlet[/url], Louisiana on Thursday. His agent told PFT that there were 20 witnesses who say Simon did nothing wrong during the incident with police that led to his arrest and said that Simon is contemplating a lawsuit against the Eunice police department for violating his civil rights.Simon won't be called on to play much right away in a secondary that already has Richard Sherman, Brandon Browner and Antoine Winfield at corner. The Seahawks have had good luck with recent fifth-round defensive backs, selecting both Sherman and safety Kam Chancellor in that round since Pete Carroll became the team's coach in 2010.
