section314 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Pretty honest assessment from a guy who has cred....turned down Bengals DC position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MindOverMatter Posted April 28, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2019 I know it's a running joke around here but this is exactly the situation where having guys like Adams, Mosley, McLendon, Leo, and Williamson on the team should get this guy on the right track. Polite's intentions seemed good, let's hope his injury and bad combine finally landed usba pass rusher. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirorob Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 It is tough for kids. A lot would benefit by staying in school that extra year. Ideally also to take some classes, but to physically mature and mentally prepare for the next level. They also want to get to the NFL, make some money, and get to that 2nd contract. Plus, if they get hurt, they waste a year and lose out on $$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Il Mostro Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Is Todd Grantham any relationship to the Jets Larry Grantham? He played almost every game during his long career with the Jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a lot to prove, that will motivate him or bury him I think having massive interior forces like Quinnen/Leonard and inside Lbers like Mosley/Williams will help draw attention away from what he will be trying to do on the edge. Year 1, likely a passing down specialist. Hopefully he evolves into something more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nixhead Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 I hope I’m wrong I really do but this guy is from Daytona Beach. I know the area well. He’s gonna grab his money and party up. He won’t be a Jet 4 years from now. I’d be surprised if he’s still in the NFL 4 years from now. Most likely an injury will start the ball rolling downhill. He will be happy with the money he gets from his 3rd round contract. I hope to see him at the Daytona Poker room so I can take some of that money. I really really hope I’m wrong but he’s boom or bust right? Sorry but my call is bust. Prove me wrong please. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have Mr. Polite give me a call and I will find a deal for his mom. I’m sure I’m on his good side with that ringing endorsement lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoadFan Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 (edited) Anybody remember Jarvis Jones? He looked like a monster coming out of Georgia. Pittsburgh took him at #17. He is in Arizona now but has been barely noticeable since he was drafted. Not sure why but Polite reminds me of him. P.S. Edit: Now I find out Grantham coached Jarvis Jones after googling it. How ironic. Edited April 30, 2019 by RoadFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean but I think jones just wasn’t enough of an athlete to cut it at the next level. the last top prospect I remember showing up fat and bombing the combine was vontaze burfict- although he had a whole additional set of baggage with sociopathic tendencies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
