If Janoris Jenkins Didn't Have The Character Concerns

It is a moot point, because his skill is not why he is ranked where he is, but I think the topic is interesting when comparing CB types. I still think he would be #2 and not #4. Mike Lombardi says Jax likes Gilmore more than Claiborne. Another NFL expert, last week on NFL Network, (can't recall who it was--Casserly or Billick, maybe?) explained that the scheme is very important in determining what kind of CB you want. I knew that, but never clearly understood why. He explained that some teams want CBs who are better in coverage early in routes while others want CBs who cover best later in routes. Never heard it explained like that, and I never considered it.

Yeah, they said Revis is an example of a guy that is both, Asomugha is an early route guy, and Gilmore is the coveted late route guy in this draft.

No, absolutely not. When has a very talented player who had character concerns ever worked out for us?????? It would be awful to take him in the second. I mean he left Florida!!!!!!!! Florida!!!!!! Then went and played at a small school. Yeah right a guy like that will never amount to anything in the NFL!!!!!!!!!!!

Some guy by the name of Cam Newton left Florida. "Florida!!!!!!!!" Then he proceeded to go to a small junior college, followed by a National Championship and a Heisman Trophy session at Auburn. Shame he never worked out in the NFL... oh, wait.

    • I think you should see the OP for pretty big reasons why that is a completely incorrect take given this is a Dave Canales team.
    • TMac is a good player and would've been the right pick if our QB could throw a ball farther than 40 yards. For this team's current build (run first, game management passing attack) and the fact that our TE's are laughably bad - the five on our roster have combined for less than 600 yards total, with 3 TDs - Warren should've been the pick. 
    • If anyone feels like they can't have a conversation about Bryce Young nearly three full seasons into his career maybe assess why and how these conversations end this way instead of looking to shoot the messenger. Why is it okay to label anyone else on the team or coaching staff trash? Folks on the huddle and across the fanbase on social media have fully thrown anyone and everyone including rookie 8th overall pick TMac fully under the bus multiple times this season. But some of you guys apparently expect a pat on the back because Bryce Young successfully evaded a few potential sacks while Tyler Shough got consumed by our pass rush throughout the game and still had a superior performance. The state of this division is hilariously mediocre at best. Bryce Young is the only player on this roster who is allowed to have the lowest bar possible yet we have invested the most resources in him. It's lunacy.
