Scandal On The Horizon


The Sports Illustrated website reported yesterday that Boston College defensive tackle BJ Raji had failed a drug test at the NFL Combine in February. Raji had tested positive for marijuana in 2008 while at Boston College and also missed the 2007 season for academic problems. In Lindy's Draft magazine Raji is rated as the #1 defensive tackle and a projected top 5 pick.

Today a website NFL Draft Bible reported 4 other NFL players have failed drug tests as well. USC linebackers Brian Cushing and Clay Matthews tested positive for steroids while Florida wide receiver Percy Harvin and Illinois corner back Vontae Davis tested positive for marijuana.

The website has stated that the reports have been confirmed by one NFL team. These reports should come to light within the next few days. This is looking like the biggest drug scandal the NFL Draft has seen.
