Would You Select Him?

Most GMs have said he's no longer on their boards, and Shanahan had no problem taking Maurice Clarette late. He played well against guys like A.J. Green and Julio Jones before he was chased out of the SEC., but he's got off-the-field issues on top of off-the-field issues.

CB Janoris Jenkins is going to be available in the fourth round, the Skins have two picks in the fourth, would you draft him.

If not in the fourth when, there are rumors that he may go un-drafted because he has a history of smoking weed. The Skins have at three or four guys already in the program, what's one more.

He's a baller, check him out

CB is an island, it's one of the positions I still like a guy who's a mediocre team player. I would use maybe the second fourth rounder, definitely the fifth if he passes due diligence by the scouting department that they don't think he's out of control and will be an ongoing issue.

We need players at many positions - I'm not against giving college players a chance

I'm really BS about guys that get a chance to play in the NFL and choose to do drugs and put that chance at risk

I cannot understand why a player would put a career in the NFL at risk by choosing to do drugs


we need many, many players and I'm not against giving kids a chance

I hope that we bring in players that are driven to do whatever it takes to be better - ESPECIALLY if that means making a committment to the FO that they have learned from the mistakes they made and will NOT put their chance to be in the NFL at risk again

that shows me the kid admits he was wrong and wants to make amends

I just knew he got in at least one altercation, I didn't know he did drugs too. Screw him, we don't need another guy we wonder when he's going to go bye bye on us.

If he is still available when we pick in the 4th round, I would definitely do it unless we have already picked a CB at three.

At the 4th round, that is not too much of an investment for a guy with his talent. If he works out, you have one of the great steals of the draft. If he doesn't, look at how many CBs don't make it at the 4th round.

How'd that work out?

I would not be upset if we used a 4th on him... and I would not hold my breath. We would start working on an all JJ defense.

It was the alleged drug use that ran him out of Gainesville. It was rumored last week that he continued to get his buzz on in Northern Alabama.

For the record both places are college towns with pretty good bud.

Janoris Jenkins: I’m a great father, not the only one who smokes pot

Jenkins told the Palm Beach Post that people shouldn’t have a problem with the life choices he’s made that led to four kids with three different women.

“It’s weird because I had those kids while I was playing college football and it didn’t affect me not once,” Jenkins said. “I’m proud to have my four kids. If they want to throw that in my face, so be it. Everybody has kids. Where in the book do it say you can’t have kids? It doesn’t say that in the law. I’m a great father. I’m there whenever they need me.”


:shock:

Almost a tautology.

With the Rams taking him in the second round the question is now moot. Looks like Jeff hasn't learned much of a lesson from "Pacman." Second round is a bit too risky for me.

I think they are nuts. There's a reason some teams suck year after year.

(back to topic) I wish teams were more scared of him so if he went late 2nd round, we could move up for the 3rd, one of our 4ths, and possibly and extra 6th.

You realize the draft was a week ago, right?

I voted "Yes... But not with the first 4th round" but the signing of a healthy Minnifield (how says he's almost 100%) is a better deal when you look at LB Keenan Robinson whom the pick was used on. Robinson will have the time to learn from London but Jenkins would have been rushed into action considering our secondary. Minnifield dropped and has less preasure to perform but is driven because he wants to be good. I could see a healthy Minnifield starting a few games with the other corners healthy, burJenkins needing a injury to crack the starting lineup...

That's Competition..... that's what Mike wants.

Kind of like drafting two of the top ten QBs in the same draft...

One is your starter the other is the back up that tell everyone else "if you ain't one of them, you need to show me something because my son can't vouch for you this year... make me keep 3 this year"

They went and drafted two O-lineman two DBs and a RB before signing Minnifield who was equal to if not listed higher than Jenkins before they both started to drop.

Would have beena wasted pick
