    Surprising part of the article:

    "At the combine, Wroten began most interviews by conceding to scouts that, while the incident never went public and didn't draw a suspension, he tested positive for marijuana during his junior season. Then, even more painfully, Wroten, a country kid from Bastrop, La., with zero pretense about him, detailed the events of Jan. 4. That's when Wroten was pulled over for speeding near Sterlington, La., and police discovered a cache of marijuana and $4,000 in his car. "

    Despite these admissions, I think we can all agree he was completely innocent of all allegations.

    "What are these allegations you speak of ? This court is not competent to hear this case. What are you talking about Willis ? "

    I love how people act like theyve never done it...

    oh well, he's a college kid and he made a mistake at a very bad time.

    maybe he'll learn from his mistake.

    and if he does, he'll be better for it.

    Sounds like he's handling it maturely. These NFL scouts aren't stupid, they know that a lot prospective athletes smoke pot.

    I said from the beginning, the charges would be dropped & it wouldn't affect his draft stock.

    Good to hear Wroten isn't going to be completely derailed from his dreams and the fruits of years of hard work and dedication for smoking a plant.
