Oh yes, he'd be ridiculed--even though pretty much every mock out there has us taking him at 4.

Dont even bother arguing with this person. Scroll down and see him compare Bosa refusing to take a drug test to Ellliott complaining about not getting the ball and how that worries him more than Bosa failing a drug test. That should explain all you need to know.

Your comparing talking about not getting the ball to refusing to take a drug test? Are you serious?

Yes I am. Zeke threw his coaches under the bus that concerns me more than Bosa refusing a drug test. Lets just admit that today we live in a drug culture that rivals the 60's in it scope most if not all of these top athletes have smoked weed and or taken molly. But throwing your coach under the bus is a no no.

You have just proven to me and this entire board that you have an agenda against Elliott. Complaining about a coach is bad yes, but comparing that to refusing to take a drug test is hilariously absurd. Your justifying doing drugs because of the era we are in? You are going on the ignore list, that is hilarious.

Lets just assume Dallas makes a bad mistake and pick Zeke at four. How long will it take the media to bait Zeke into complaining about not getting the ball after a loss ? Do you think Garret want to deal with that or Linehan ? Do you think Jerry wants to be in the middle of that. No thanks

I like you, even though I disagree with you strongly.

There's no NFL rule that you can't throw your coach under the bus - which, of course, Zeke has apologized for.

There is, however, an NFL rule that you can't smoke weed, and if you're caught, you can face suspension.

Just saying.

They had Murray who did that all the time, didnt stop them from using him. Dez does it too, passionate players are worse then people who fail drug tests ? Right, thank you for losing all credibility with me. At first i thought you just wanted to convey your point that Elliott at 4 is dumb, thats fine, its your opinion, but basing your arguments on silly things like you have is just ridiculous.

Dont bother, his comparisons and justifications are laughable. You will just be chasing your tail and pulling your hair out.

Here's the difference. There's really no established pattern outside that one incident of Zeke complaining in that case.

However, when one fails a drug test, it automatically suggests a pattern of drug use because players generally know when the tests are going to be administer yet they STILL fail. That's more concerning to me.

GMs know the reality of college like most of them smoked a little weed in college too. They get it kids will be kids. But throwing your coaches under the bus is not tolerated in the NFL.

You have to be kidding me. You are actually saying GMs draft players knowing they will most likely get suspended at some point and would rather draft someone that has a history of drug use as opposed to someone that threw their coaches under the bus, after a loss, when he is extremely emotional, and demonstrates he just wants to WIN? Yeah congratulations on having the most ridiculous statement on the internet today, and thats saying a lot.

Just because a kid smokes a little weed or takes some molly in college does not mean that kid will have a proble going forward. That includes Zeke cause I'm sure he smoked weed and took molly too. But he allowed the media to bait him into throwing his coaches under the bus is really bad news for a GM that can slit the locker room and cause all kinds of damage.

Kids will be kids. But you're not taking that kid on your team if you suspect that he's an inhale away from failing a drug test and costing your team a victory because he's suspended.

When the rules of your business say "You smoke weed, you can't come to work" then it's no longer "kids being kids", it's "we need adults not kids."
