Former NFL first-round pick Matt Jones faces an uphill climb to stick on the Jacksonville Jaguars' roster this year amid a surplus of receivers. Jones has been a disappointment in his three seasons, producing only 1392 yards and 13 touchdowns.

No one doubts the athleticism of the former Arkansas quarterback – who is 6-foot-6, 238 pounds, has a 4.37 40 yards and has a 39.5 inch vertical jump, but they have always been questions about his work ethic, even in college.

Good, Jones field now on the list seems questionable, since he was arrested in Fayetteville, Arkansas, police early Thursday and charged with possession of a controlled substance.

The Office of the Washington County Sheriff says officers arrested Jones and two other men sitting in a Toyota 4Runner in a parking lot in illuminated an area not known drugs.

The preliminary arrest report shows an officer saw Jones sitting in the backseat of the car with a white card with white powder substance in it and a credit card in hand. The report says that Jones told one of the officers that the white powder was cocaine (six grams of The substance later tested positive for cocaine)

The officer said he opened the door and asked Jones to "put your hands where I can see them.

Authorities say Jones did not immediately comply and hid his left hand. The officer drew his gun and ordered Jones out of the vehicle. Jones came down and the officer put in handcuffs.

The Jaguars are raving about 2007 third round Mike Walker, and former Vikings plunder Troy Williamson also has been having an excellent season with the team. Having a reputation for dropping balls, Williamson has caught almost everything thrown his way in the offseason. But he did the same offseason passed in Minnesota, to continue a season plagued by drops.

With Walker and Williamson has secured the points list with Jerry Porter, Reggie Williams and Dennis Northcutt, it is hard to see Jones in the computer club. Now, however, his NFL career could be over because of this arrest.

That is a shame, because teams like the Cowboys or brown may have had a wheel of a type whose base salaries are only $ 625,000 and $ 565,000 in 2008 and 2009, respectively, and could be a third quarterback in a hurry.

Jaguar fans should be outraged that number one pick is now facing drug charges. As the sports fan, your voice must be heard. Fortunately, websites related to sports are popping up all over the Internet for sports fans. By example, Sportsfananza is a major sports fan online video sites and this would be the place for fans Jaquar to express their views about how sports that are angry at Mr. Jones.
