Talk about STUPID!

When will these jerks learn?

Hire a chauffeur and carry nothing.

I'm sure none of us has had stupid decisions at 22 years of age.

Speak for yourself but I wasn't making stupid decisions when I was high at 22, I was smart and responsible and made sound choices like not wasting my money on worthless investment opportunities that my high friends recommended like some stupid thing called google or some fruit company, apple or something....

Dumb hippies

So did I. Sometimes we forget that these guys are kids that have become over night millionaires. Doesn't change the fact that he made a bad mistake but it's easier to understand you you put yourself In his shoes. The trick is leaning and not doing it again. I'm pulling for the kid, he seems like a good person that is going to have to decide who he is going to be moving forward.

You weren't kidding! That's a boat load of money he just lost.

Corry reports that the $2,501,124 of salary guarantees from 2018 to 2020 will likely be voided due to the charge

You want to know how badly this kid messed up with his diluted drug test and blow out costing him the combine?

The kid was easily a top 3 consensus pick. Our own Peters wanted him at 2. He ended up going 31st. Here's the differences in total salary plus signing bonus.

3 49ers Solomon Thomas - $28,169,295 ($18,617,459)
31 49ers Reuben Foster - $9,048,638 ($4,711,527)

Granted, there were concerns over his shoulder too so the immaturity, drugs and poor life skills and choices all played a role together in the drop. But it also played a role in Paraag adding drug language to his contract, now costing him another $2.5M.

So altogether, so far, he's probably cost himself $21.6M.

Well now we know the real reason he had a diluted sample at the combine.

Is it drugs or just following the rules? I'm just not okay with blanket statements.... because you need to include prescription drugs in that bad category (Brett Favre).

For now, any drugs that are deemed illegal by the NFL. Simple.

I can't even begin to imagine what suddenly coming into that kind of money at age 22 would have done to me. Lol I would have burned brightly before I exploded probably.
Anyone have any other incite?
