RUMOR: First round talent-Failed drug test

[Canadian BoyzFan]

A couple of things that rang clear to me this week that influenced my mock draft were: Vince Young has done a nice job on his visits around the league. One coach said, 'I was expecting to meet a Michael Vick kind of guy and felt more like I sat down with Donovan McNabb'. Two defensive coaches weighed in on Manny Lawson and described him as a cross between Jason Taylor and Jevon Kearse. Both of those veteran players entered the NFL under 240 pounds. Lawson has weighed anywhere from 241 at the Combine to 233 on his visits. Two players, who I will not mention, have apparently failed a drug test and will not be top choices next week. Unfortunately, one of those players is a clear-cut first-round talent.

Another Warren Sapp type situation maybe.

Any guesses? I'll take one. Jimmy Williams, Va. Tech.

I don't know who the clear cut first rounder is.

But I am pretty sure I read the other one was the kicker Scifrices (have no idea the spelling but that should give you general idea).

His agent claims he was taking some sups or vitamins from GNC and was not aware they had something in them that is picked up in the nfl drug tests (sounds like more of an issue of steriod type situation compared to other drugs).

This is from Kirwan's nfl.com article, I don't think its just a rumor. He isn't going to make that stuff up. He also has Lawson moving up to #16 to Miami and Wimbley going to Dallas at #18.

You don't have a guess as to who the first rounder might be?

I hope it is Michael Huff so we can get him in the second round

Well, I really like Bunkley but mark me down as one of the guys who could not believe how much weight he gained in a short period of time.

 

[Canadian BoyzFan]

I think it's Jimmy Williams.

A guess sure any of us could guess.

But I have no clue as to who it is and not a shred of info to say who it is or even give an educated guess.

Claude Woten is the name going around the internet.

Woten is a forsure guy but I actually thought that his issues had been reported months ago. This seemed to me to be a recent thing. Your correct Rosh, Woten is definatly a guy who has substance issues and probably would have been a first round pick otherwise. I guess we will have to see.

DT LSU....Bunkley like production.

Busted with ton o' weed with intent to distribute few months ago.

Was a lock for first round.

He'll end up in Cincy.

Thanks.

Have not followed LSU this past season. I can only think of the O-Linemen and RB from them right now.

Getting slow in my old age.
