These two comments hit on my first thought: I don't think many teams will pass on him because of his sexual orientation, though I would expect that a select few might because of big locker room concerns. I think the bigger issue for more teams might be that they don't think that a mid-round talent is worth the level of distraction that the inevitable media frenzy is going to bring.
