TNJet Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 He may fall...then do we pull the BAP trigger? Could backup Jenkins as a rook or even get some time as a 3-4 end. Thoughts?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0mShane Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 He may fall...then do we pull the BAP trigger? Could backup Jenkins as a rook or even get some time as a 3-4 end. Thoughts?? Yes. He may be semi-retarded and a pot-head, but that's never stopped anyone from being a semi-retarded pothead who is also a good DT prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

124 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 If B.J. Raji were there, even with our need at Wide Receiver, we would be foolish not to take him. How he falls out of the Top 10, even with the "positive drug test", I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barton Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Dude, if Raji falls out of the top 10 the Jets should look to trade up for him. Easily the #1 player we should be targeting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villain_the_foe Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 He may fall...then do we pull the BAP trigger? Could backup Jenkins as a rook or even get some time as a 3-4 end. Thoughts?? Just seen some high lights of this guy on youtube. He's a freak of nature. AWESOME. Jenkins wont play 16 games and the playoffs, and this isnt a talent that you see every year. If we didnt get a WR and we lucked up and got him I would be proud to call this beast a Jet. Damn, watching it again...this guy has the power of a high strung DT with the agility of a DE. This kid is light on his feet to be so damn big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bachelors3 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Yes. He may be semi-retarded and a pot-head, but that's never stopped anyone from being a semi-retarded pothead who is also a good DT prospect. Ellis is a convicted pothead so what's the difference. I would grab him if he fell. But he won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyHector Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Would easily be BAP at #17, but he's a Planet Theory guy and will never fall that far, simply because of a positive test (or tests) for weed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMC Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Raji at 17 = Jets take Heck, if Raji makes it to 14ish, Tanny will probably trade up, like he did with Revis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JiF Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 If the history of the draft tells you anything, you dont pass on a guy for a positive drug test. Dan Marino and Warren Sapp are still laughing. I dont think this hurts his stock too much and dont see him getting past #10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 You guys have to be on some crack to even think he'll get close to falling to 17. I see him going to GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 AKA Warren Sapp ...but can Raji dance? If B.J. Raji were there, even with our need at Wide Receiver, we would be foolish not to take him. How he falls out of the Top 10, even with the "positive drug test", I don't know. I don't see how this alleged drug test could make him fall too far considering that at least Vontae Davis, Harvin and Raji tested positive for weed and Cushing and Matthews for juice. If all these guys tested positive they can't all drop. If the history of the draft tells you anything, you dont pass on a guy for a positive drug test. Dan Marino and Warren Sapp are still laughing. I dont think this hurts his stock too much and dont see him getting past #10. You have to look at it as a concern. If it's just marijuana it's probably no big deal, but there are guys that missed time or were eratic. R J Soward and Phillips had concerns and I'm sure we wouldn't want to burn #17 on their equivilent. I don't remember if Matt Jones and Ricky Williams had trouble, but if they did I'll bet teams wished they'd paid attention. It's just a reason to check and double check their background/character.

Jerichoholic Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Tons of prospects test positive or even admit to smoking weed at the combine interviews.... I remember Calvin Johnson admitted in interviews to smoking pot previously and it was reported that many teams were impressed with his honesty and candor ... didn't hurt his draft stock ... doubt it hurts Raji too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiF Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 And you wish Dewayne Robertson had been caught smoking crack before the 2003 draft. Are you talking crack? You have to look at it as a concern. If it's just marijuana it's probably no big deal, but there are guys that missed time or were eratic. R J Soward and Phillips had concerns and I'm sure we wouldn't want to burn #17 on their equivilent. I don't remember if Matt Jones and Ricky Williams had trouble, but if they did I'll bet teams wished they'd paid attention. It's just a reason to check and double check their background/character. This is true. But they all smoke weed. Ricky Williams was agrubly the best RB in the game when he got busted. Matt Jones is a coke head, **** up, moron. The Jags got the wool pulled over their eyes. Those are the guys you need to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gang_green03 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I think everyone agrees that he's a no brainer at 17. There's no way he's around there though. I actually wouldn't mind trading up if he fell to the teens though. To bad there's almost no way that happens either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyHector Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 The .0000001% chance he would fall to #17 has been eliminated, as Raji was informed he did not fail a drug test at the NFL Combine. http://www.jetnation.com/forums/showthread.php?t=74072 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
