Mechi Becton tested positive for drugs so he could fall 2nd round. I heard today it was for pot so I doubt he will fall very far. Maybe pick 20 or so.

This is the drum I've been banging on for the past several weeks. If we stay at 4 and take a Tackle, whoever that player is should be in competition to start on the left side from day 1. If none of the OTs are in position to do that, take BPA, Simmons, Okudah, even Derrick Brown if he is the highest graded and the grades aren't close. It's highly unlikely anyone we draft at 4 will start day one at LT. And we need both anyway. Obviously you want to draft they guy who you think can excell there at some point. That may be true, but I've said this in a few other threads as well. As bad as Nate Solder played last year, I would have to believe that any OT I would draft at 4 would be good enough to challenge on the left side from day 1, and if they cant and another player is graded high enough to take there, I would take that player.

Ill even take it a step further. Its a 100 percent not going to happen because we have old man solder there making top money and he is guaranteed playing there since we need 2 starting tackles and a center.

That is just what I heard on the radio so don't quote me on it. There is no more testing for pot from what I remember in the new CBA. The combine was before the new CBA took effect though, so they tested for it. I honestly don't think he will be effect by this much at all, if anything a team could use it as a way to question his decision making, smoking a joint so close to the combine. If you need an OT and had a high grade on him I doubt this changes anything.
If the pot thing is true.
