One knock on this kid that many scouts agreed and disagreed on, was his attitude. Nice job Santonio, jackass.
Pittsburgh is a city of hardworking people and thats really not the way to go at all to have the fans on your side. We don't need that crap at all and thats just stupid what he did.
PITTSBURGH -- Steelers coach Bill Cowher on Thursday criticized No. 1 draft pick Santonio Holmes for his arrest last month in Miami, but said he will not hold the incident against the former Ohio State receiver.Holmes, who missed four weeks of coaching sessions due to NCAA regulations, was arrested in South Beach for disorderly conduct during a Memorial Day weekend crackdown by local authorities."Whatever he did wrong, I don't think he handled it properly," Cowher said. "I think he'll learn from it and understand the scrutiny he's under. We have not talked face to face about it. I don't have any long-term concerns."Holmes and fellow rookie Mike Kudla were prohibited from participating in the minicamp because of an NFL-NCAA agreement that a college player cannot take part in NFL spring workouts until his college has had its graduation.http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2476138

And according to reports from mini camps Jackson sounds like he's doing better then Holmes, even Greg Jennings looks better right now. Lets just wait untill the season.

Nice job Santonio, now I know why 23 teams passed on you. People always said he had attitude problems but everyone dissmissed them. Go Chad Jackson!
