He is spending his off season in Scottsdale doing OL workouts and training. While driving in the uber rich community of Lamborghini dealerships and world renowned golf resorts/spas, he was followed for 10 miles, pulled over for nothing, and told his kind don't belong there.
In Arizona the majority of the people don't even like their coffee black.

I would have figured they would have offered him a contract to play for the Cardinals.
You'd think the law enforcement there would be in the loop and only harass RBs since Bruce Arians doesn't have any use for them anyway.

Its actually the battle flag of Northern Virginia. I think it just winters in Arizona but right now prefers the lack of humidity compared to South Carolina.
Its a shame stuff like this still happens though.

This doesn't surprise me. Like a few of you have already mentioned, "Fuck AZ!" I know it has been a while now, but it just seems like yesterday when AZ refused to recognize MLK day as a national holiday. The only reason they finally did in 1992 was because of the money they would have lost by not being able to host Super Bowl XXX. Oh yeah, and fuck that Super Bowl too!

awesome article. dave uses words like "propounded" and "confabulated".
he is S-A-M-R-T! if beachum is a top 10 LT his projections are pretty accurate, although i think his signing bonus would be more than $11 mil.
But with that big of a contract, the Steelers cap will be discombobulated by next year, when they will need to give Jarvis Jones a big contract extension.

Steelers And LT Kelvin Beachum Have Had Extension Discussions
According to Mike Garafolo of Fox Sports, the Steelers and LT Kelvin Beachum have spoken about a possible contract extension, though there has been “not much” progress towards meeting an agreement at this point in time.
Now with HC Mike Tomlin, GM Kevin Colbert, and DE Cameron Heyward all signing extensions within the past week, it seems the team has now turned it’s focus on Beachum.
In fact, this is the first confirmation of negotiations since reports surfaced back in June that the team has yet to reach out to him.
The Steelers have a history of negotiating long-term term deals for players entering the final year of their rookie agreements, but the team has made a point to shut contract talks down once the season is underway.
While it is unclear on how close the two sides are in coming to an agreement, it could be taken as shocking that there has been little progress, given that there was once talk that Beachum would be one of the first players among the Steelers’ extensive list of players entering their final season under contract to be signed.
Beachum is among a number of Steelers’ players entering contract years in 2015. This list includes: OT Mike Adams, G Ramon Foster, NT Steve McLendon, CB William Gay, DE Cam Thomas, DE Clifton Geathers, QB Bruce Gradkowski, FB Will Johnson, LB Sean Spence, S Will Allen, WR Darrius Heyward-Bey and LS Greg Warren.
Beachum, 26, has one year remaining on his four-year, $2.146 million rookie contract, which includes a base salary of $1.542 million.
In 2014, Beachum appeared in all 16 games for the Steelers was rated by Pro Football Focus as the No. 5 offensive tackle out of 84 qualifying players. Beachum particularly excelled in pass protection where he rated as the No. 4 offensive tackle out of this group.
