Jags 1st round pick, Justin Blackmon arrested for DUI
Quote:
STILLWATER, Okla. -- Jacksonville Jaguars first-round draft pick receiver Justin Blackmon was arrested on an aggravated DUI charge Sunday after authorities in Oklahoma said he had three times the legal limit of alcohol in his system.

The former Oklahoma State star smelled of alcohol when an officer pulled him over shortly after 3 a.m., Stillwater police spokesman Capt. Randy Dickerson said.

Blackmon agreed to take a breathalyzer test and blew a .24 -- three times the legal limit of .08, Dickerson said.

Under Oklahoma law, a driver can be charged with aggravated driving under the influence when a test shows .15 or greater.

The Jaguars drafted Blackmon with the fifth pick in this year's NFL draft in the hopes that he could upgrade the league's worst offense.

"We are aware of the report and are gathering information," Jaguars spokesman Dan Edwards said. "We don't have any comment at this time."

Blackmon was released from jail Sunday afternoon on $1,000 bond. He's due in court on Monday.

With being that drunk, the only good that can be said is he didn't crash and kill anybody - or himself.

Was he a trouble maker at OSU?

It seems like every year there is a few that stir the pot...

he was caught in 2010 going 90mph in a 55mph zone one his way back from a giants-cowboys game. it was in texas, so there's no knowing how drunk he actually was. they have a zero tolerance traceable amount law. which means if you have a beer and drive home you can get arrested.

i'm actually pretty surprised about this. other than that incident in texas, he seems like a great kid. i wouldnt call him a troublemaker at all.

thi incident is simply inexcusable. thats ****in insane to drive that drunk.

Right on, This is his third brush with the law. How many more chances is he going to get before he throws his career away...
