It goes down as a positive test. He'll be in the NFL drug testing program after he signs his contract which means he'll be tested more (randomly) than everyone else..What is the impact of a "diluted sample" vs a positive for a specific drug in the draft?
That's exactly what Foster is claiming. Said he had food poisoning and was vomiting along with other things the week before the combine. I'm sure he was rehydrating like crazy trying to recover from that. It also sounds like he's tried to get in front of this as much as possible. I read an article that said that he was on the phone immediately with all of the teams interested in him, and he hasn't been shying away from the media. Unless he actually fails a drug test due to illegal substances, I can't imagine that it will hurt his draft stock. Especially the way he's handled the situation. Really think there's nothing to see here.I deal with drug screens a lot with work. A diluted sample could mean that he's trying to hide something or he drank a lot of water, or if he had food poisoning and got some IV fluids that could've caused the dilution. A diluted sample does not always mean it's bad.
It might but my guess is not that much. He's too good. He's a lock for a top 20 pick and I would still bet on him being a top 10 pick.I just wonder if it will impact his draft. Hopefully it will not. NFL teams tend to disbelieve player stories about false positives.
If that's right, it doesn't mean much. Regular NFL drug testing is a joke (it's really an unbelievable... no, mindblowing... testament to how dumb / uncaring of getting caught a lot of NFL players are that they ever test positive even once). Testing only occurs once and the timing is extremely predictable, if not certain. For a variety of logistical reasons, it'll almost certainly occur at some point during training camp, and my understanding is that players and those around them know a good bit more than that general timeframe. Oh, and Stage 1, which is what comes when you get caught once (which I think is what you're saying Reuben might be going into), isn't much tougher: pee clean at a predictable time in a 90 day period and you're back to the standard.It goes down as a positive test. He'll be in the NFL drug testing program after he signs his contract which means he'll be tested more (randomly) than everyone else..
