It's offical R Foster is a turd

rezburna · 04-21-2017, 07:53 AM

I don't care what he took or didn't take. If he's there at 11 then I'm taking him. It's simple.

Ugh I just can't give up on the guy even though I know I should. Do you want a LB who can marry your daughter, or a LB who can make Devonta Freeman pee his pants? We need Foster's nastiness.

Im not saying dont sign him. I just get sick of the excuses the players make and listening to people take it as truth.

Look at Vaccaro last year. Hardly a bad word said. He took a banned substance and missed nearly 25% of the season for stupidity

Same thing happened with Shane Ray a couple years ago and everyone said the same things. Can't trust him, he's immature, he'll get into trouble again, blah blah blah. Well he hasn't gotten into trouble again and he's about to take over as a starter this year and will probably be a beast. We don't even know for sure if Foster did anything wrong. Perhaps his explanation is the truth. Even if it isn't, I don't think it's the big deal some of you make it out to be. Stupid? Yes. Unforgivable? No. This kid has star written all over him and if we pass on him because he made a mistake and he goes on to fulfill his potential I'll never forgive the front office.

I sometimes forget these are still young men learning life lessons. This stuff is going to cost him a lot of money but I think he will be fine. He is already coming to terms with it from his statements.

I doubt we even have the ability to get him though. Tea leaves are saying we are going to over indulge ourselves on a veteran CB. We get a DE at 11, a late round project and an undrafted WR or RB that shines in preseason. Should be enough to get us in the playoffs.

He'll be there at #11. I wouldn't be surprised if the Saints remove him from their draft board ... kid lost a few million dollars in the process.

Your guilty,no excuses. You get a list of things in the banned substance list and its your responsibility to make sure you do not take them

Showing what little you know about the supplement world.
Due to them not being regulated by the FDA they can put banned chemicals in the product without labeling it. Companies have been caught and fined for doing this, and this is done in some of the most popular pre-workouts.

As a professional athlete I would have all of my supplements tested by a 3rd party. Do we not remember the starcaps issue from years ago?

Would love to have Foster, hoping he slides, would be a great pick at 32.

Adams at #11. Foster at #32. Saints get two playmaking thumpers from the SEC.

Yes you can get tainted supplements but not to the extent athletes do. You see the same athlete a year after the ban with a completely different body shape in large amount of cases.

Also as i said before. If he is being tested at the combine why would he have so much water in his system. You cant run and perform on a bladder thats overflowing with water. Its takes litres (4+ normally on a normal size man) and Foster is over 230lb. He has drunk loads of water for a reason. The same as having issues once it got time to be medical checked out independent doctors.

Im not saying dont draft him.

Im saying he couldn't be waiving red flags above his head anymore if he tried though.

First not letting them check his shoulder
Second what looks like flushing his sytem

Id still consider him at 11

If he wasn't who he was talent wise people wouldnt be willing to overlook this though
