Last weekend, the San Diego Chargers drafted defensive tackle Luis Castillo in the first round after Castillo admitted testing positive for a banned substance at the league's scouting combine in February.

Dr. Linn Goldberg, a professor of medicine at the Oregon Health & Science University who testified, said that Castillo's being drafted in the first round was not good for the N.F.L.

"This could send a message to other college athletes that you can essentially cheat on the entrance exam to improve your draft position," Goldberg said.
