Jenkins Kept Smoking
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...north-alabama/
Cornerback prospect Janoris Jenkins was kicked off the Florida Gators’ football team last April after three marijuana-related arrests. Jenkins opted against the NFL supplemental draft, and played his senior season for Terry Bowden at North Alabama. But Jenkins didn’t turn over a new leaf. NFL Network’s Albert Breer reports that Jenkins has revealed in pre-draft team interviews that he didn’t stop smoking at the Division II school. While the truthfulness is somewhat honorable, league executives weren’t exactly pleased to hear it. “This is a multiple offender of the drug policy in college, and it’s not like there were no character concerns at North Alabama,” one AFC personnel executive told Breer. “He had multiple opportunities to get away from it. He didn’t at Florida, and he went to North Alabama and he wasn’t clean there. … It was more of the same.” Several, if not most, NFL evaluators consider Jenkins the second best on-field cornerback prospect in the 2012 draft, behind only LSU’s Morris Claiborne. But Jenkins may not even be drafted in the first round. “He gets to North Alabama, and he’s still smoking because he’s got this big-fish, little-pond thing going,” one NFC executive said. “I don’t see him going in the first round, and a lot of teams have him off their board completely.” An AFC college scout told Breer that he doesn’t believe Jenkins is a bad guy. But he still would want no part of Jenkins in the first round of the draft. “He’s not a bad person,” said the scout. “He just makes a lot of dumb, dumb mistakes. He just smokes and [has sex], and that’s essentially what it is. … And there’s just awful decision-making associated with that. I don’t think he’s a bad person. But he has a lot of soul-searching to do. “I wouldn’t touch him in the first round.” |

Easily the biggest dumbass in the draft. Hope we draft him in the 3rd round.

The guy's trying to straighten things up. I hear that he hired Pacman Jones as a life coach.

Justin Houston basically got caught once with pot and hasn't touched it since becoming a pro. Well, he's been smarter about how he conceals it, anyway. Third round for him.
Jenkins gets caught once with pot. Twice. Three times. Gets kicked off the team as a message. Gets caught again at Northern Alabama. "He might not get drafted in the first round" Uhh what? |

Also, I really hope we steal this guy in the 3rd round, too. But I also hope that Scott give Brandon Flowers and Eric Berry a call and asks them, "How would you guys like a babysitting job for like... 3 years?"

Not a chance. After Baldwin, Scotti was touch the tainted picks again.

If the likes Pac Man Jones still live in the NFL, then someone will draft Jenkins. They will accept his fate due to the fact he is such a tremendous cover corner.

If the dude falls to the 3rd and is available with out pick, we need to for sure grab the guy. Hell teach him how to conceal in for drug tests and let him play.

Ugh. I'm not a fan of continuing to take low character guys. It's nice to get a steal on talent, but there comes a point where its bad for the team.
I remember the Bengals going on a run of drafting low character guys, and it blew up in their face.
