Brandon Jenkins


Recommended Posts

Would love to get him. He's a great pass rusher. Watched quite a bit of him last year and he has one of the quickest first steps off the snap I've seen. Can't tell you how many times, in live motion, I thought he was offsides only to see the replay and find out he just got off the snap VERY quickly. If he does come out this coming year and slides due to injury then he could be a steal for whoever takes him.

As a Noles fan there are 3 guys in this draft who have 1st round NFL caliber on that FSU d-line. Jenkins, Werner and Carridine all are

interesting note..his replacement tank carradine is now ranked #15 by scouts inc. jenkins, werner, carradine...must be nice fsu

Im a huge Noles fan so I can speak a tad on this. FSU has always produced great D-lineman but the depth and talent the current team has is ridiculous. While Jenkins getting hurt stunk we knew the D was most likely ok because of Carridine. They've also got alot of other younger kids waiting in the wings who have NFL type talent.

I could honestly see 3-4 Noles going in the 1st round this year (Jenkins, Werner, Carridine and Rhodes)....Maybe even more if EJ Manuel finishes his season in a big way. Im surprised more buzz hasnt come up about him. He's a really talented kid and it seems like things are finally clicking for him this year. I could see him being a good pro with the right development.

Its def. exciting to see the direction Fisher has the program heading.

i like jenkins but not as a 3rd rounder maybe 4th. we don' know how he's gong to play after that injury. the only olb i would trade to move up from the 3rd round to the 2nd is chase thomas. thomas plays alot like clay matthews and it doesn't hurt that he's from stanford. stanford has the #1 ranked run defense in college football and top 10 in sacks and thomas is the main reason for that.

Understandable, I like Thomas as well, Jenkins however before injury was putting up numbers that rivaled Jarvis Jones and could have had 1st round talent

    • This is spot on. Small market, and people want to think a St Elmo's steak, the combine and Manning's legacy is enough for people to want to just come to Indy to play. We don't have the night life, climate, roster or tax breaks to incentivize anyone to come here.  So the only way to do it is money.  We would automatically have to mark up every offer we want to make by 5-10% to have a chance at most of the top guys.  And the unfortunate reality of first tier free agents is that their value already gets marked up 20% to that players actual worth, so Ballard is probably out before the real negotiations are even taking place. We can afford to do that move for like ONE marquee player when the roster is ready....but not now, not on a good player who hit free agency because their former team didn't find them important enough to keep them.  We can never fall back on the fact that a we can lure a player here because of external factors.....because those will typically work against us. There was extensive discussion about this on page 48 of this thread. 
    • Yeah, his athleticism is from another planet.     To bad he doesn't believe in it(anything outside of the Earth). That media availability at the combine, didn't help his draft stock.
    • If they stick to that logic:    Tyler Owens SAF Texas Tech 12’2”   The broad jump record of 12 feet and three inches belongs to former Connecticut cornerback Byron Jones, who set the mark in 2015. Jones went on to be a first-round pick and it’s likely in part due to the explosive athleticism he showcased in this very drill.    He almost tied the record for longest broad jump 
    • This. Ballard has already traded a first round pick and got an additional 2nd. He had to trade out of the first round and the 2nd was the following year. I believe it was with Washington.  I’m with you. I highly doubt any team will give up their 1st and 2nd or 3rd for the 15th pick. 
    • Yep Love at first sight is a real thing. Congratulations Anthony and Jada.
