Halfway through a late-night interview at the NFL combine two months ago, a session with a team that owns a top 10 choice in the draft, but a meeting during which Charles Rogers' demeanor alternated between courteous and curt, the Michigan State wide receiver rolled up the sleeves of his T-shirt as he fidgeted incessantly, and the move revealed his beefy biceps.


More important to the college scouting director conducting the interview, the stretch-and-yawn Rogers performed at that point also revealed a hidden facet of his personality, a more human side than previously exhibited.

What the scouting director noticed when Rogers squirmed in the chair was a tattoo on each arm, the name "Charnae" on his right bicep and "Charvze" on the left, stenciled flawlessly in stilted letters, deep into the dark skin of the standout wide receiver.
