This is the only statement I disagree with. Because he failed at the combine, he is on strike 1 already. Its a calculated risk that I could not take at 13. 31? Maybe. But even then, I'm not sure. Which is why I'm typing on a message board and not preparing for the NFL draft.


Under the old marijuana policy, sure it would be a big risk. However under the new policy he has to test positive 3 more times before he gets even a 4 game suspension.

This is true but Gregory is still subject to more test than a player not in the system which means more chances to fail for other substances. It also means he cannot smoke anymore which he admits to doing for several years now.

Good point. You are right. I had forgot about the new policy. Still a risk at 13, for me.

I'm having a difficult time finding the updated policy, but IIRC, the next test he fails he will be suspended for two games. I wouldn't be mad if we drafted him, nor would I be mad if we passed. But, a player who has failed multiple drug tests in college, and is already in the first phase of the program before being drafted, isn't a good sign.

the risk is moreso in the locker room and team related than just him missing games. he has displayed a specific disregard for authority and severe lack of maturity, and this is what Paeyton is trying to clean up from this team. if he is going to burn trees before a known test, then he is someone they may have a difficult time trusting in the locker room.
