Houston, Ballard fail draft drug tests

Report: Christian Ballard, Justin Houston flunked combine drug tests - NFL - Yahoo! Sports (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=nfp-20110426_report_christian_ballard_justin_houston_f lunked_combine_drug_tests)

Notice that Mallett is not on the list.

Smoking weed is pretty minor. That said, smoking weed before you know you will be drug tested is reckless and dumb.

Yeah smoking weed in the months leading up to the draft is just dumb. I know we're talking about dumb young kids but come on have some priorities.

I doubt the veracity of any second report.

On whether Goodell passed the test:

"I can't disclose it because of the confidential nature of it," Goodell said.

Skinsfaninok predicted that Dallas would draft Smith. I hope he's right.
