Shane Ray arrested for DUI and Marijuana possession.

Tim Couch Pulls Out

Further, who said he wasn't saving it? He got busted for possession, that's it. No DUI, either. Just failure to drive in the right lane.

This is a non-story.

This is a huge story,

1. His injury could cause him to fall out of the first round

2. Did we not learn anything from the likes of Justin Blackmon/Josh Gordon?

3. Can we afford to draft this guy in the first round?

LogicIsForSquares

How much money do you think he will lose by getting caught with that pot pre draft? You know it will move him later into the first.

character is becoming more of an issue everyday in the nfl.

sure GMs would love to draft a guy with that talent but if they can't play then why draft them?

i'm sure we could come up with a list real quick of GMs that wished they hadn't taken a chance and are now polishing golf shoes at wykagil.

He was my favorite pass rusher in the draft? Now... no thank you.

Shane..."Hey Roger, thanks for invitin' me to the big party this Thursday. I been gettin' ready for it dude!"

Roger..."No problem buddy. You'll soon have your picture on a box of Weedies!"

IDIOT!

Also, according to info from 5 NFL teams, Shane Ray failed a drug test early on in his career at Missouri. That comes back to haunt him now.

these young kids can't handle the potency of the high grade cannabis sativa.

how many breaks can you give the young prospect?

does a bad decision regarding drugs/alcohol made at a young age suggest that the prospect will forever be fighting the abuse demons?

josh Hamilton seemed to have beaten his habit only to endure the very public admission of several recent "relapses".

obviously the angels feel that his flame had burned out while they send him back to texas and eat tens of millions of dollars of his contract.

it seems to me that those in the position of evaluating professional athlete prospects are leaning towards the policy of "once a user, always a user".

if I were in their position, and basing my decision solely from a cost/benefit analysis, i would have to agree

You agree, and so does AA. You can be sober 50 years and you still start a meeting with "I'm ____, and I'm an alcoholic."

And I just took Ray at 12 in my latest FirstPick sim...

Plus Bill Polian dumps on Shelton for being too slow...

Plus some Celtic dipshit pulls Kevin Love's shoulder out of its socket...

Aw fuck it...

I can see it now: 12: Randy Gregory 19: Shane Ray 43: Dorial Green-beckham. Get willie Nelson and snoop dogg to sing the national anthem at the home opener and all is well.

Too slow? He's 340. I haven't seen any guys that big with his pass rushing ability or motor.

Someone give Polian Shelton's stats on snaps played. You see that and you give him a pass for being slow (which he's not, anyway).

When did they say this?

Mudfly

one problem that this may cause is that he is a pass rusher and was expected to go pretty high(top 10 possibly)....which would have been one of the picks used to push Shelton back our way......so, thats one less defensive guy to put ahead of our guy.....which isnt good(for us)
