it does not to seem out of the realm of a possibility

remember Follett? It took him until the 2 full contact practice until he new his career was over.

Yeah, I'll listen to the kid, when he says he will "Definitely" be back next year.

Seems like PFT is just throwing shit against the wall to see if anything sticks…

Did you guys see this? Figured I'd post it here, since we don't have anyone playing in the Pro-Bowl Tomorrow.

Kalil or Clairborne

I might be the only person that thinks this but..

I really hope Mayhew thinks hard about taking a chance on Janoris Jenkins

by Shady313 on Jan 28, 2012 6:02 PM EST via mobile reply actions  

I personally like Vontaze Burfict

He’s another guy that saw his stock drop but I think he is a ridiculous talent. Off talent alone he’s the best LB in the draft by a mile he just needs to reel it in a bit. The same could be said for another player on our team so he should fit right in. He would also fit the BPA philosophy if he’s still there at 23.

As far as Jenkins goes, I’m just not sold on the guy. Staying out of trouble this year doesn’t impress me. Of course he’s going to stay on his best behavior down there in Southern Alabama. He knows too much is on the line. The problem is when you hand him a couple million and he makes it throught the rookie year clean(hopefully) will he pull what Aldon Smith did today and have us reading about a DUI or something. Great talent, I just don’t trust the dude.

Things that I read about Burfict

is that he has a soft body of sorts. Meaning that he does not put the time in the weight room. And givin that his pass cover is pretty suspect, not sure if he is on Mayhew’s radar.

Well, this is well after the game but not seeing another obvious place to post some senior bowl questions

Did any of y’all come up with an observations about the following guys?
- Josh Norman (Coastal Carolina) CB
- Janoris Jenkins (BFE Exile) CB
- Brandon Boykin (Georgia) CB
- Shea McClellin (Boise State) DE
- Kelechi Osemele (Iowa State) OT
- Cordy Glenn (Georgia) OG

Any observations?

Dear Mayhew;

Take a look at Nebraska senior OT Jermarcus Hardrick.

Kid was not invited to either East-West Shrine game or Senior Bowl, but looked very solid against one of the best pass rushers duo in NCAA (Clowney, Ingram – South Carolina).
Also, had in-practice battles againts Jason Pierre Paul while teammates at Fort Scott Community College. Underrated talent!
