News: Demarcus Lawrence To Be Suspended For Failed Drug Test

[KingintheNorth]

I wish we had any type of real leadership. I'm so tired of this kind of thing being associated with the modern Dallas Cowboys.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

Wow I was thinking pro bowl for him this year. What an idiot.

Ruined my day

 

[Wolf2k5]

Has literally ANYONE else even heard of this rumor?

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

LOL.............wow, that is just sad. How bad are the Cowboys? Two young DE 2nd round picks that cant lay off the drugs. Unreal. All I can do to keep from crying is laugh at this point.

And they'll take Another one this year

 

[casmith07]

Man, I'm sure glad we cut that aging, declining, no-clutch bum DeMarcus Ware a few years ago, rite guyz?

 

[bayeslife]

This doesn't mean Bosa if Ramsey is there. If we pass on Ramsey I'm going to rip my face off.

 

[casmith07]

If this is true, it certainly explains why we've been signing and attempting to sign so many DE's. Looks like a numbers game now.

However, this should in no way affect the draft. If you change your draft plans in any way whatsoever over a 4-game suspension, then you deserve any long term failure you inherit.

Stick to the board; draft the best players. Maybe a lifetime/undetermined ban could affect a close call, but a 4-game suspension for one season should have zero impact on the draft....nadda

Say it again.

 

[CATCH17]

Don't worry guys.. We'll draft Bosa who is as clean as a whistle....

 

[erod]

What is it with weed and athletes today?

They could make billions, and they'd still smoke it away.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

Don't worry guys.. We'll draft Bosa who is as clean as a whistle....

And draft Khemiche in the 2nd

 

[fredp22]

I'll never be able to fathom why these pro-athletes can't stay off their drugs. They're literally throwing away millions of dollars just to smoke some damn weed. Josh Gordon is the best example... the guy was about to get a fat contract (probably in the $60-$70m range), but nah... he'd rather do drugs. The guys who do this are either A.) complete idiots or B.) have a mental issue and should check into rehab. Either one I don't want on my football team.

I want to preface by saying get pot off the list they test for but I agree, If someone is going to offer you multi millions to stay off pot for 10 years or at least 6 months during NFL season I cant see why it isnt possible. it isnt an addicting drug.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

But, but weed isn't addictive...can stop anytime. Except just about everyone I know that is a regular user can't ever give it up. They don't "want to," but could if they had to. Yet they lose jobs, marriages, etc over a drug that isn't addictive.

Anyway, I would think that we might want to consider Jason Jones again or whatever the hell his name his from Detroit, just to have a body. I still think I would go trade down if possible....teams wanting Ramsey or Tunsil and maybe we could still get Bosa a few picks later and pick up another pick for defense. Not sure how far down we could go and still get Bosa, Rankins or Buckner. Almost guarantees having to take 2 DL early on...

 

[remdak]

And draft Khemiche in the 2nd

Heck, lets go all in and get Manziel and Gordon.

 

[HardHittin'Witten]

 

[Kaiser]

The Cowboys haven't even finalized their draft board and a beat writer in South Florida knows that Bosa is a lock? Doubtful.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

This franchise is becoming a joke

 

[remdak]

Has literally ANYONE else even heard of this rumor?

The only other one I could dig up was JJT mentioning a few days ago that another defensive starter was one step away from a 4 game suspension.

It's for amphetamines.

Amphetamines =/= THC. Not in the least bit.

 

[bayeslife]

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this what Lane Johnson got nailed with two years ago?

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

Still no confirmation from anyone else. Possible hoax?
