Panthers Tempted To Take Janoris Jenkins Per Peter King

Recommended Posts

Saw it on twitter, don't know how to post link. Also listed rams,cowboys and patriots as having interest as well. I have thought all along he would be the best pick, kind of gave up hope after reports of him falling, but I'd be ecstatic if we trade down and take him.

Hell I'd be happy with him at 9 if we have to

I don't know if I could get behind this at number 9. He's probably the most gifted cover corner in the draft but he's a knucklehead. I'm not sure you take a flier on a knucklehead at number 9.

I would, however, love to see us pick him up in the 2nd or after a significant trade down to pick up additional 2nd or 3rd round choices.

Scott Wright is knowledgeable and usually spot on with his mock drafts and he has Janoris all the way down at the end of the 2nd.

If the Panthers feel comfortable with him then select him. He seems to be saying all the right things and this past year is a good sign that he is working hard to change the perception of him. The ability is there.

Man id cringe taking him..

But really really hopeful he would just become hit with a book to the head and make great choices..

Because he is Awesome!! I see him as a young Asante Samuel and even Revis quality guy..because he mirrors the wr well at the line and still can stay with the elite guys.

i love Gilmore but early he is not agressive..not unlike Gamble. Gilmore can recover and track a deep ball and is quick to read a play for an above average tackle.

This draft is deep with corners and wrs, If we don't get the guy we really want in the top 10 like Blackmon or Claiborne then I wouldn't reach for anyone else. There will be guys who are good further down the line. Plus we still have Hogan who was a fourth rounder because of knee issues who was originally projected as a 2nd rounder last year.

SI's Peter King doesn't anticipate North Alabama CB

Janoris Jenkins

going in the first round, but he does name five teams that might be "tempted" to select Jenkins, perhaps if he falls into the second.

Panthers are one of them, and chill out; it's in the second.

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
