Should the Detroit Lions draft troubled Oklahoma RB Joe Mixon?

PHOENIX -- New Los Angeles Chargers coach Anthony Lynn had an hourlong meeting with Joe Mixon on a pre-draft visit earlier this month, and Lynn admitted Tuesday that he walked away from the interview uncertain if the Oklahoma running back "gets it."

"Who knows?" Lynn said during the AFC coaches breakfast on Day 2 of the NFL's annual meeting at the Arizona Biltmore. "I don’t know that. He was definitely remorseful about what happened and seemed like a really mature young man and he accepted his responsibilities and moving forward, I don’t see him doing that again. But I can’t sit here and say that he gets it.
