  • It's better than spending a 2 on Massoquai or Robiskie. It isn't that it's an ideal situation, it's that given the Browns draft record, Gordon was still far more successful than a lot of guys who had longer,shittier careers.

  • Yea, maybe he will slip to #33. Though, fact is, Browns are better off at ILB than just about any other position on the field except along the OL now.

    If he could play OLB/DE/DT it would be better.

  • I guess I don't see how in the world a diluted sample can be counted as a positive. I mean, I drink a BUNCH of water every day, and I'm pretty sure my sample would be diluted. Just seems strange.

    Well for that one day you have to drink juice I guess. And by juice I don't mean roids.

    Haha. Kinda like the 'she didn't let me cum, but at least she let me in' argument.

    Right now drafting Foster sounds like when I tell you Jessica Alba is going to give you a hand job with sandpaper gloves.

  • Hell if he falls to 33 ....BOOM ...do it

    It could still be worth it to let Jessica Alba give me a hand job with sandpaper.

    I guess it depends on the grit.

    A little sand on the lips wouldn't be a big problem.

  • Can someone explain what a diluted sample means? I remember Josh Gordon had one (I think) and it was because he had something called "dilute" in his system, that can be used as a masking agent. From what I read about Foster, it sounded more like his urine sample was diluted and not strong enough? I'm confused. If a sample wasn't "strong enough", wouldn't they just test again an hour later?

    OK, I worked in a hospital lab for many years. "Dilute" is measured by a thing called specific gravity. It's weight\volume, and pure water is the standard = 1.000 . Ha, to digress- lead is around 11.0, meaning a given volume of lead is 11X heavier than the same volume of water. "Normal" specific gravity of urine is around 1.010 to 1.030, though it can go higher (dehydrated) or lower (diabetics). I don't know what the NFL cutoff is, but I would flag anything lower than 1.003 as "suspicious". 1.000 definitely- someone is peeing pure water. πŸ™‚

  • After the josh Gordon experience and examples on a host of other Teams it would be insane to spend anything higher than a fifth on this guy. Anyone that we drafted guy in the second round but also pound they're heading to concrete till their brain fell out.

    story reads it was a diluted failure test caused by a food poisoning drug Foster took..Is that possible? cranberry tablets/ or juicing cranberry diluted a friends tests she failed..Is this a better possibility? Hate to see the Doc's office that cost him a few Million..

    It means you would've failed the test.

    This guy is off our board.

  • This is great news....means we can have him at 12.....along with Garrett....

    All day....everyday.....(almost).....

  • could be taking diuretics to flush contaminants out....

    right before the draft... I don't believe that happens by accident.

    Regarding cranberry- nothing in that stuff I'm aware of that could cause a failure. If the drug he was taking was a diuretic (makes you pee a lot) and you're drinking a lot of water- possible. But if that was Foster's problem- easy enough to show the powers that be your prescription bottle- and that would solve the problem. Smells a little of Haden getting busted for adderal, and Josh getting reamed for purple drank. (Which is phenergan + codeine) I can tell you from personal experience in it's legit use, it's the best cough medicine out there. But, get your hands on some, swill an entire bottle of it, wash it down with 4-5 doubles of whiskey- you're going to get a hell of a buzz off it.

  • There are a lot of reasons one would have a diluted test....and, for sure, weed smokers are plentiful in this league......JG seems to be the only one who ever lost years based upon petty drug test fails....cough syrup.....microscopic traces of weed.....a drink with his buddies......his suspensions are unprecedented, actually.....

    So....dont know why Foster had a diluted test(probably weed).....but it doesnt concern me too much......EXCEPT the fact that now he will be a one strike in the league drug protocol.....which makes him one step closer to a suspension than everybody else......

    Basically starting in the hole(ala Gordon).....

    But, Id still strongly consider picking him at 12.....even though he's a prick, plays a position of less need and might smoke dope.....just think he's that good.....

    All great points Larry. That said, Gordon said he took that purple drink (cough medicine) for Strept Throat. He's such a good liar that this went over a lot of heads.

    When Gordon first came to Cleveland, I wanted the guy to succeed and show people why people deserve another chance. Then I read despite his elite talent/performance in high school - he turned off all major DI programs except for Baylor. Then he got kicked off Baylor's team twice (college football's version of getting kicked out of Sodom or Gomorrah) before transferring to Utah and never playing there.

    Here he is today in 2017 with 5 NFL games (0 TD receptions) to his name since 2013 because he can't pass piss tests for 1 full calendar year. He's got a God given talent that would pay him double digit millions if he prioritized football enough to make the sacrifice. Football always came so easy to Gordon that he seemed bored with the lack of challenge.

  • lets risk a top 20 pick in a deep draft on a one year hit with one strike on the drug policy and character concerns and a predisposition towards thug mentality...


    Brilliant...

    I'd rather have Joe Mixon in the 2nd than Foster at 12

    Can't get kicked out of the combine if you aren't invited in the first place!
