Ohio State cornerback Eli Apple, a potential first-round pick in this year's NFL draft, is seriously lacking in life skills, according to one anonymous scout.

"I worry about him because of off-the-field issues. The kid has no life skills. At all," the scout told Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "Can't cook. Just a baby. He's not first round for me. He scares me to death."

Apple's mom, Annie, didn't appreciate the comments:

Apple's former Buckeyes teammate Ezekiel Elliott also came to his defense:

Apple is only 20 years old, so he has plenty of time to improve his cooking skills. If not, there's always takeout.
