University of Alabama star Dre Kirkpatrick was arrested early Tuesday morning in Florida for marijuana possession, according to an arrest report from the Manatee County Sheriff's Department.
Kirkpatrick, who announced at a press conference last week that he would leave school early to enter the NFL Draft, was charged with possessing less than 20 grams of cannabis and released on $120 bond.

I've been making light off it all
because it’s a weed charge
but this is just wonderfully bad judgement and while the fine is only 120 bond with a probable 500 dollar fine he just lost millions in the draft

In
a league that probably has over half of its members smoking pot, I doubt it is that big of a deal beyond being stupid. Now being grossly overweight and disappearing from the combine….
this is a really bad assumption. and thats all it is. you are assuming that. whether or not its actually true, you have no proof.
a league that probably has over half of its members smoking pot
andre smith had a bad pro day and did some weird stuff at the combine.
dre just broke the law and spent a night in jail. whether or not you believe it should be illegal, it still is. breaking the law > showing up overweight to a pro day.

I am
taking former NFL player Lomas Brown’s word on that, who said that at least 50 percent smoke marijuana and that was probably 3 or 4 years ago.
I am not saying it doesn’t hurt him overall, I am simply saying it is not going to effect him that much.
and im saying look at players like
Laveranues Coles
Marvin Austin
Jimmy Smith
all of those players had run ins with the law or public displays of lack of character. dre made a bad decision last night that could very well cost him serious money, especially in terms of bonus cash. the good thing dre has going for him is the combine and pro day are still ahead. he still has a chance to talk to teams about what happened and wow them with his skills.

If I were an NFL gm
I’d be a helluva lot more concerned about “fat and doesn’t care” than about “busted with < 1/2 oz. of pot.” Night and day more concerned. Whether it’s against the law is extraneous if he’s not locked up, as he won’t be.
Slightly over-nthusiastic partying one week after winning a devastating national championship game that well deserves celebrating is not a hanging offense in the NFL, and will not e likely to cause a gm who needs a lockdown corner to pass uonthe best one on the board. Unlike Andre, dre has shown every sign of being dedicated to football.
too bad you arent an NFL GM.
what he did is illegal. thankfully dre doesnt have any prior issues like this, but this kind of stuff gets you suspended from the NFL and into jail. it means the people you associate yourself with are also suspect. GMs dont want to invest a significant amount of money with a player that could just as easily pass a drug test and go to waste. we know that the odds of that happenign with dre are small, but GMs dont know that. Its the same reason janoris jenkins is so low on peoples boards. he could be the most talented CB in the draft, but his issues have cost him dearly. dre wont fall that hard, and maybe not at all. but this is a much bigger deal than coming to the combine over weight.

Gms aren't law-enforcement officials
One pot possession bust is simply not a big deal, either to the law where it is about 1% worse than a traffic ticket, or to an employer. Repeated offenses are a very different story. It’s the every-dog-gets-one-bite principle.
This will be a very minor factor in the draft.
Except the league has very specific substance abuse policies.
You don’t do your team a lot of good while suspended.

Street drugs
are easy to avoid getting in trouble for-unless they completely changed drug testing in the new CBA
In my opinion
A one-time possession bust the weekend after the biggest celebration moment of a young guy’s life does not really differentiate him from other kids and is not a huge information point regarding his chances of running afoul of the league’s drug laws in the future. As I’ve already said, multiple,e offenses are a very different story.
We’re just talking now, and we’ll see this spring but this is not a big deal IMO if it remains an isolated event.

"Make no mistake, Florida is the South's trashcan" Peter Griffin
Don't really follow NFL Draft
but is there a clear example of where someone did something similar to Dre and it really caused their draft position to drop considerably. It seems like it’s easy to say he’ll drop a little bit, but does that really happen? Especially over a small amount of weed.
I don't think it will hurt Dre that much
mostly because he is in the top two CBs available in the Draft and this is not an exceptionally deep CB draft, but NFL teams do care.
Marino slid, because of rumored off the field drug issues but mostly because that was the deepest QB draft in history. When in doubt take the guy without the drug rumors.
BJ raji, Percy Harvin, Todd Marinovich, Justin Harrison all slid due to off the field drug related issues in recent years.
As you stated earlier, GMs don’t want their 1st round shut down corner suspended.

I can see that several here don't know a lot about the NFL.
There are teams who won’t draft Dre now. Period. They will literally take him off their board. Now, does that mean every team will? No, of course not- but this will absolutely cost him draft position. There is no question about that. This is a league that has suffered with some major image problems in recent years, and Roger Goodell is more than serious about changing that.

Especially disconcerting given Coach Saban’s praise at the presser about Dre’s character and the way he has represented the program and school. I am sure this was not an issue when he was on the team, but it still reflects on character when he gets arrested less than a week after he leaves school. This behavior is so cliche it is depressing.

Legalizing it *IS* the answer.
The government has no mandate to criminalize consensual behavior, and War on Drugs has only made a black market that is very profitable for drug dealers. It’s also worth noting that had Kirkpatrick celebrated his big win with a fifth of Jack Daniels or double cheeseburger (both vices that have much higher health risks in this country), none of us would even be talking about this.
Yes, it’s still illegal right now, so Kirkpatrick made a poor decision allowing himself to get caught, but this incident should not be taken as evidence of the evils of recreational drug use. If anything, it highlights the stupidity of our nation’s current drug stance.

They were driving down the wrong side of the road
I would not have wanted to be in their path that night on the street. Their judgements / reactions were evidently influenced by something. One would have to conclude it was the pot. While pot may not be known for making one violent, it certainly makes people stupid. Working with 17/18 year olds every day, I see the results of pot, alcohol, and harder drugs in lives that are diminished, some beyond repair. I don’t know all of the answers, and I don’t think the problem is going away. However, when players like Dre,a hero to many young people, get arrested for illegal activity, it sends the wrong message.

There's a distinction here that is overlooked.
“Recreational drugs” is a broad term. Most of them are deadly and even if one argues that it’s not the government’s business what you do behind closed doors it cannot be argued that drug addiction often drives individuals to commit violent or other anti-social acts in order to ensure they can get their “fix.”
Marijuana is on a different plane and although I’m not for legalizing it, I would be in favor of loosening the punishments that users face although dealers and producers should still be punished. Consistent marijuana use reduces brain function over time.

The saddest part in all of this is...
This is America! We should have our liberty! These football players are fantastic athletes and know their bodies well. They should be able to ingest whatever substances they wish as long as they are performing to the on-field standards their employers have.
I watched one of the greatest RBs in the NFL, Ricky Williams, waste his best years not playing because he broke the rules about smoking pot, not because the pot damaged him and that’s bullshit!
Pot does have great medicinal value, especially in post-game pain control and hopefully, some day, this country will get smart and legalize that shit and stop ruining lives over pointless anti-pot laws.

the contractor who built that faulty stairway would be held accountable, yes.
so it is up to the contractor to hire and maintain a clean staff. if they dont, its their liability. that contractor then gets a bad rap, no longer gets contracts and goes out of business.

I read somewhere else
it appears he was in a car that was driving on the wrong side of the road. Not the driver. Upon a police stop, the officer smelled marijuana and a police dog searched the vehicle. The marijuana was found under the floorboards (carpet mat?) by Dre’s feet, who was riding shotgun. Dre claims the friends bought the pot without his knowledge and its not his…
Yeah
he went on a drug by and did not know what was going on. Yep, that is what happened. He didn’t know kinda like old Cam.

OK, settle down doomsayers
While this was obviously not a good decision … seriously Dre??? … 20 grams is less than a half ounce, and a half ounce is about the size of a PB&J in a sandwich bag. That’s a misdemeanor amount, not felonious possession with intent to sell. Sorry moral high grounders, but the amount matters.
To my knowledge, Dre has never failed a drug test or been arrested for any other reason. This also matters. While he may fall in the draft, if he interviews well, performs well at the Combine, and obviously stays out of trouble between now and Draft Day, he should still be a mid-first round pick.
