<![CDATA[Randy Gregory fails drug test at combine]]>Sad news for a guy so highly rated. But will he never have that problem again?

Or, be another Josh Gordon - who says one thing, and continually never gets around

to getting himself straightened out?

Would you still draft him if he were on your sights before? Or, draft another player

whose skills are very similar?

One easy solution here. Become a Steeler and he'll miraculously never have dirty urine again regardless of what he Jerry Garcias moving forward. If Josh Gordon was a Rooney employee, the Pittsburgh Gay-zette would Walt Disney that story into a miraculous and heart-warming about-face with the creativity of a Stephen King. Pitt media already pulled off making a hero out of James Harrison for taking all the fine money fans contributed and giving it to the battered women's shelter/support group his wife continued to need. That's either some really good editing erasing the part in bold or they just had the perfect customer base that didn't think it was any big deal. Apparently, Ray Rice wasn't the first dirt bag Roger Goodfella wanted to pardon. My guess is a street smart Ratbird Owner Bi-shootbreath had back pocket knowledge of James Harrison's roid rages at home ready to bully Roger with. He had something on Roger Goodfella especially when Roger's is the only person on the planet that hasn't seen the video of Ray knocking out his wife allegedly. But take a guess what OWNER would be ready to support Roger after all that shook out and his integrity was publicly shotso? Rooney.

With the piece of trash running the league today - the crimes aren't ever going to matter as much as who the person committing them works for. Does Pittsburgh win their opener against without their version of Cheech and Chong running the football on us in the first half? On top of that, Pouncey was arrested in August just like Blount while Bell was dumb enough to tell media he smoked weed. Now that it would benefit Rooney to rest Bell early on in 2015 following the injury that ended his 2014 season, Pitt's had enough time to sign a former 1st round RB DeAngelo Williams. How many other teams get a year to find a solution to a starter that will be suspended?

Those don't really exist...

And, I wouldn't have him in the 1st round on the Browns draft board anyway b/c he's too small for us and I've thought he was bust material, but this just adds to my concerns. Much like I thought of Manziel last year, I'd risk a 3rd rounder on his athleticism but nothing higher...

Surprises me that tests can't predict a predisposition to dependency...

Agree totally on passing on Gregory regardless of this news. I do not see the fit in Pet's scheme.

We got Josh Gordon in the second round for the same reasons.

How'd that steal of a deal turn out?

Tough to pass up if Peat and Harold on the board. Interesting sucks for us usually...

After dealing with Gordon's bullshit and Johnny's rehab, no fucking way. I would let someone else roll the dice on him.

The shitty part is that no one ahead of the Browns will pick him now, I only liked him as a filler to push the Sheltons and Rays down the board.

Yeep. This pretty much means we lose out on one of the prospects we were hoping would fall in the draft.

GTFO!

You mean everyone doesn't do that?

And Id consider him to have his first "strike" .....

The Browns weren't going after him anyway. If you read the article on ESPN, he smoked a lot of weed.

once bitten, twice shy.

stupid stuff to inhibit his success in football.

But then again, I think JF loves the game, he just had problems to deal with.

But like Brogan posted, he had some motivational problems at Nebraska, and that's

a another bit of evidence to support the claim he isn't all that into being a -football player-

I wasn't interested in Gregory to begin with... but had I been, then sure, spending an top-ten pick on a player with a failed test already under his belt would give me pause.

That said his quotes in the article hit all the right notes and I could always have him take more psychological tests to access any predilection towards dependency.
