Jerry Angelo Is No Jackass

In the fifth round of the 2009 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears chose WR Johnny Knox. 

Knox is blazing fast.  While coming from Abilene Christian, a D2 school, Knox put on quite a show at the NFL Combine. 

The question is:

Should Jerry Angelo have chosen Johnny Knoxville instead?

Look at the resume:

Blasted with a fire hose.

Bitten by baby alligators.

Tall.

Shot by four men with paintball guns for the cover of Rolling Stone magazine.

Hit hard in the junk by a sledgehammer.

Won 100 yard dash in the Special Olympics for the movie "The Ringer."

Has been punched in the face several times for "fun."

He could go across the middle... and probably be the best option in the slot for the Bears right now.

Finally, let's look at what the Bears' current WR depth chart would look like with the gritty Knoxville on the roster.

1. Devin Hester

2. Joaquim Iglesias

3. Johnny Knoxville

4. Weeman

5. Party Boy (w/ boombox)

6. Rashied Davis

While the future for Knoxville in a Bears uniform looks bleak at best, it is possible he will still be invited to rookie mini-camp.
