Dre Kirkpatrick, Alabama’s outstanding cornerback who is expected to be a 1st round NFL draft pick in April, was arrested early this morning for possession of marijuana. According to the Manatee Sheriff’s website, Kirkpatrick – who declared for the draft last week after Alabama beat LSU to claim the National title – was busted with less than 20 grams of cannabis. No other details are available yet.

Sounds like ol' Dre is having some fun on his agent bonus... :lol:

Sucks for him

[JawnyBlaze]

Whew. I guess that puts to rest my fears that we'd draft him. Michael Brockers come on down!

i don't think its the smoking as much as the stupidity of a projected 1st round pick getting caught with drugs. Come on man, let your friends hold it, you just smoke it. That is really dumb.

I agree with you 100% in principle.

But the law disagrees with both of us in fact.

If you have so little self-control that you can't keep your habit under wraps for what? Three more months? Or just keep it in your house? Then maybe you ain't the right guy to spend a Top Ten draft choice on.

I wonder what the Big Cat would think?

Brockers for the win!!!!

[4Corners]

blockers for the win!!!!

getting caught out in public with it is pretty stupid.. but the fact that it's illegal is due to a flaw in the minds of American's who hypocritically and ignorantly rise against it... If it were legal, this would be a non-issue.

agreed.. but this would be a non-issue if it were legalized, which is where I'm coming from.

and the term "drugs" in your post is a bit misleading, when people everyday drink a "drug" that is legal..

the timing of it is what maks it so bad.

agree w/ it or not, but possession of it is illegal (atm).

he spent his whole life preparing for a career in football and put in enough hard work that he can be considered a first round pick and while you think you would be doing everything you can to make yourself look like a top prospect so you can get the highest pick possible, you get busted for possession.

what a dummy.
