Kris Jenkins in Haynesworth out?

CultBrennan59 · 03-31-2011, 05:36 PM

I'll take his brother Cullen Jenkins of the Packers though!

I like the idea of going after Cullen Jenkins to play RDE. The only nose tackle I would advocate for in free agency is Aubrayo Franklin. That signing could work out.

I like Franklin too, but even he will be 31 this summer.

Seemed like the Packers were willing to let Cullen walk, but with the mess Johnny Jolly has gotten himself into, may not be as likely now

Kris Jenkins seams like a nice guy and I would embrace him if he became a SKIN, but the NFL is a physical game and he can't stay healthy, I wouldn't take a chance.

At least with KJ we know he gives 100% and is a great locker room guy. I would just bring him in to show that pos AH how to be a professional. Give KJ 2 year 8 mill contract.

What we need is a true NT for the type of defense we have in place. I think it would be a good idea to have a player that has actual experience playing the NT position to help develop a rookie NT (if we bring one) and to continue to develop Bryant. I think this is a bit more relevant than showing Haynesworth how to be a professional.

I'm all for a veteran showing people how to play NT. But an old guy without a knee doesn't sound like more than a position coach. If his knees are better I'd be fine with it. Free agents only cost money, they don't cost draft picks or our future. 8 million is excessive - I'm all for the classic vet min and then performance based incentives.

Just as a side comment, the starting NT for the Pittsburgh Steelers - Casey Hampton, is 33 going on 34, and I believe just signed an extension.

I trust Allen's instinct, I mean he got LJ and Willie Parker for nothing, they didn't work out, and were kicked to the curb. Honestly, I dunno how much money Jenkins can command given his health history.

Talent and more recent experience playing the 3-4.

So do we know what other NTs are available in free agency (if it happens). I guess with this whole labor mess is kinda hard to determine who's available and whatnot.

skins89moss · 04-01-2011, 01:11 AM

With our limited number of draft picks this year we are going to have to sign some undrafted free agents and hope we can find a Brandon Banks at the NT and LB spots. We have to learn to stop giving up draft picks like its nothing.

Well said SS.
