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:

funny how people look down on that and will take a drink in the same breath.. pure ignorance.

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?

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.

      a look at our 19 udfas

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.

      Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
