There's irony in Carolina's DT quandary

[Acewalker]

Even diamonds start out as coal..

[Cyberjag]

If Hayden gets cut and manages to hang around the league and eventually become a decent DT, a whole ton of people around here will forget all the nasty things they're currently saying about him and will demand that Hurney and Fox be fired because they didn't see his potential.

[Davidson Deac II]

Irt Jenkins leaving, if a player doesn't want to be here, then he shouldn't be here. The compensation was a little low, but at least we don't have to pay someone who would rather be somewhere else. To bad we couldn't dump the other discontented defensive lineman.

[Cyberjag]

The way things are looking, we got two starters out of the Jenkins trade. Barnidge and Godfrey will also be here long after Jenks is out of the league.

Good trade.

[Matt Foley]

Jenks and Peppers, both perennial Pro Bowlers when healthy, both wanted out of Carolina in the worst way. Is this a good thing? You tell me.

[Cyberjag]

I said the Jenkins trade was good, you're discussing a different issue.

[carolinarolls]

They just had to go somewhere else to reach their potential.

Nice shot sir!

I will rep thee

note to self: ok, don't slip, stay positive, everything is fine, it's all good, we're OK

[X-Clown]

I could be missing something, but I could have sworn that Jenkins was worn out in the last quarter of the year and wasn't all that effective.

[Cyberjag]

Shush, they're on a roll...

[koolkatluke]

oh pro bowl wow i can't believe a NY based team sent someone to the pro bowl

Yeah it had nothing too do with dominating games just that he played for the jets.

lol yes leader of men Kris Jenkins

The only one who called out Pep for the 2 sack season.

30 year old cornerstone who's had 2 season ending injuries lol

Still better then anybody we have or can get health or not. That why they put alot of money in putting Lb around him.

the panthers knew kemo would get hurt.

Still better then Kemo when health.

so far you've got a pro bowl, heart, and leadership qualities no one would agree with you on.

Probably the whole football league who made him a all pro right.

pretty solid case you got here

Simple question even if Kemo wasn't hurt who is the better DT Kemo or Kris?

Lets not forget the fact that even when Kris was too fat and a malcontent he could still play all 4 downs. Kemo can't.

Jenkins played when the other team was punting?

[DaCityKats]

kris>kemo.....all he did was try the rest of d to step up to his level of play and gets shipped out. i sure miss that guy.

[CatMan72]

We had no choice with Jenkins, he didn't want to be here anymore and was creating problems in the locker room. If Peppers had gone the same route, he'd be wearing another uniform right now as well.

I do think we make a mistake letting Haye go, but hindsight is 20/20.

[Hairless Cat]

But he sucks remember? Oh wait, THAT Jenkins...the probowler for the Jets....

another malcontent like peppers - good riddance
