Some Sources Plan to Fight for Simmons

"That video is going to be shown so many times, and people will bash [Simmons] without knowing him. If you draft him, it's one of those things you have to be prepared for knowing that a backlash will come. They see it's a woman getting hit, and they will bash the kid without knowing him. The staff at Mississippi State has only positive things to say about him. They say he's a good kid who made a mistake and will be all right. I also know people from his hometown that vouch for him. I know when it comes down to me, I'm going to stick up for the kid in our meetings and fight for him."
