Wow ..... there was a few members who were really pushing the signing of Jones in 2009.

Wonder if Hos will rub it in their face like they tried to do with his Roy Williams prediction?

Probably not ......

Sure sounds like some people should step up for that big plate of (my bad) CROW.

Jaguars’ Jones arrested on felony drug charge


FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP)—Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Matt Jones faces a felony drug charge in his former college town after police say he was inside a car cutting up cocaine with a credit card.

The 25-year-old Jones and two others were arrested early Thursday. A police report said officers approached the car and an officer drew his handgun after Jones did not immediately show his hands.

Police said they searched the vehicle and found a plastic bag filled with a white substance that tested positive for cocaine and a jar with possible marijuana residue.

Jared Hicks and Benjamin Cook were also arrested on misdemeanor drug charges.

Jones was released from the Washington County jail on $2,500 bond. His arraignment on a charge of felony possession of a controlled substance was set for Aug. 11, two days after Jacksonville’s preseason opener against Atlanta.

Jaguars owner Wayne Weaver said he was waiting to learn details of the case.

“We’re trying to investigate that now,” Weaver said. “We don’t have all the facts. We will comment on that once we have all the facts.”

Jones, a star quarterback at Arkansas and a first-round pick in 2005, failed to develop into the go-to receiver for Jacksonville.

Jones caught 77 passes for 1,075 yards and nine touchdowns in his first two pro seasons, but he struggled in 2007.

Last season, coach Jack Del Rio became increasingly frustrated with Jones’ demeanor and work ethic, making him inactive for three games. In the offseason, the Jaguars signed free agent Jerry Porter and traded for former first-round pick Troy Williamson.

Then what are you saying?

Man, we just weren't meant to upgrade the WR position this year. Not saying that Matt would of have been an upgrade.

 

[iceberg]

It ends it for me.

Now I need a new campaign and sig line.....

sorry stash. regardless of how i felt i know how much this must disappoint you.

This is Arkansas we're talking about.

A couple of years earlier and Jones would have been bootlegging moonshine.

 

[WarC]

Since he was doing it in a truck in a vacant parking lot at night, makes me think he just may be a hard core addict.

Yeah.

Cocaine is a party drug - Most "casual" users get the high and they want to be in the company of other people, talking, laughing, whatever. It's something you don't normally want to do alone because it effects you in a stange way and can have you feeling down and deeply depressed as quick as it can give you a nice, euphoric high. So a casual user is going to try and limit those downswings by being in the company of people drinking or otherwise having fun.

So if he was alone, in a parking lot, at night...It's got to be a need as opposed to a want. I bet he wasn't feeling "good" either, and was probably in a bad mental state when he was caught.

Sad.

 

[sacase]

Ouch Felony possesion.....Goodbye NFL....Goddel better hand him at least a year long suspension.

 

[Stash]

sorry stash. regardless of how i felt i know how much this must disappoint you.

Thanks man, appreciate the sympathy.

I thought the guy might be a good fit here and I sure was wrong.

It's always disappointing to see talent utterly 'wasted'.....

Your sig was over the "legal limit" anyway.

 

[dueyhemlock]

Then what are you saying?

Matt Jones is a 1st rounder that hasn't lived up to the expectations. He's a young guy with potential. I would have been fine with him coming to camp for free/trade, late rounder 7th, maybe 6th. Just for a look. We'll have mutliple picks next year, 12ish. So why not try to continue to fix our weak links.

After him playing in the snow, i'll pass. I think our halfway house is getting a little bit crowed.

 

[Stash]

"Legal limit"?

I didn't know there was one.

What is the legal limit?

 

[Brandon]

I'm laughing at all the idiots whos mouths were watering over this coke head.

"Legal limit"?

I didn't know there was one.

What is the legal limit?

"The total width of your signature images should not exceed 500 pixels, and the total height should not exceed 350 pixels."

 

[Stash]

"The total width of your signature images should not exceed 500 pixels, and the total height should not exceed 350 pixels."

Who knew?

I'll count next time!

 

[Stash]

Enjoy!

Have one on me!
