Janoris Jenkins "fired By Agent"


Recommended Posts

Janoris Jenkins is one of the biggest question marks in this year’s NFL draft. He’s undeniably talented — among the most talented cornerbacks in the draft — but off-field legal trouble, his dismissal from Florida and his four kids by three women are among the issues that have teams wondering if he’s more trouble than he’s worth.

And now there’s another issue with Jenkins:

The curious case of his changing agents.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with a player changing agents — plenty of good players do it every year. But Mike Bianchi of the Orlando Sentinel writes that Jenkins was fired by his agent, adding, “You've got to be pretty shady for agent to fire player.”

Jenkins may turn out to be a great NFL player, but if he’s trying to alleviate any worries teams have about his stability off the field, his agent switch is not a great way to do that.

This may drop Jenkins to us in the second round, but at this point would you take Jenkins if he fell to us in the second?

I'd like to know the exact reason why he was fired though.

Some agents don't feel like they make enough, so if it was because of payment then I don't really think it's that big of a deal.

I think I heard the agent that he parted ways with is big and well known. I think he is now with someone with less clients and can spend more time on him. To me if it was about disagreement over payment it almost would be more realistic if it was with the "smaller" agent. Who knows though.

If he's there in the 2nd, I would definitely take him. Not even a question. Jimmy Smith had off the field problems, and still went at the end of the 1st round last year, and Jenkins is a better pro prospect than Smith.

    • This guy pre-draft was saying he could take or leave football, and he seems to have been playing with that mentality ever since lol.  
    • Agreed, another safety would be nice. Bud Clark, TCU, is one I would like to see us take a flyer on later in the draft, if he stays healthy and we don't take someone earlier. I just really hope we draft a solid C this year. Tired of seeing us cycle through average to below average players in that area.
    • Bryce doesn't like throwing into the middle of the field unless the play broke down or it's set up to give him a passing lane.  So because of this issue, most of the passing offense has to be outside the numbers towards the boundary. So you see him throw a lot of dump offs, swing routes, short side out routes, comebacks or deep balls outside the numbers using the boundary as protection of an interception.    Pretty easy for a NFL defense to see this and scheme against it.  All you have to do is run a shell cover 2 deep dime, LB plays a hook underneath, take the flat away with a blitz/flat zone option for the two inside DB's, outside two DB's play hook zone underneath and carry anything deep.    Pretty much what NO ran to take away Rico while also limiting What Bryce can do as well.
