JaMarcus Russell pre-draft hype


Swarly

Recommended Posts

it didn't do anything. he had an interview with NFL network after the cut, and sounded like he didn't give a poo. he said he was going to 'take a break' from professional football. take a break from what? he was a backup half the season, and training camp hasn't even started.

he is everything that's wrong with professional sports.

edit- yup, Mayock is once again proving why he's the smartest analyst out there. no idea why he isn't working for some front office, he would get millions.

any team that pays him more than league minimum is dumb. and to be honest, I wouldn't sign him this year. I think he needs a year away from the league.

I don't really care what Kiper thinks about anyone either way. I really only care about what Mayock says.

Mayock loves Clausen. While I think he was pretty high on Russell too, (in fairness, the dude has all the physical tools, and no one knew he would become so lackadaisical once he got paid) he wasn't high on Quinn during that same draft. That should tell you a lot.

Truthfully though, if Jamarcus had not gotten lazy and fat, his cieling was very high.

He had a cannon arm, decent to good accuaracy, huge frame, and was still pretty mobile. Unfortuanately the only attribute that he improved upon in the NFL was his huge frame.

But the big and ultimate downside to him was stupid.....and there is no cure for stupid. Have you heard him in interviews? He sounds like Michael Vick II.

    • The problem with drafting a DE/EDGE high in the 1st is the bust factor.  That position group busts at a scary rate.  We HAVE to hit our first 3 rounds.  Cant take chances on tweeners or potential guys.
    • Man folks right on this site said Deion was gonna follow his son to the nfl and have a big impact on his draft stock with his interference and yet we have seen no such thing. He just signed an extension to stay in Colorado for the foreseeable future. The only thing we have seen is so called experts try to tank shedeurs stock with false accusations and rumors and deion just had to step in and shut it down. This why you have to stop listening to what certain people say. Too much hate and emotion in most opinions. 
    • That's sound logic! I think we could make a case for a few players. I know its not popular  with a few but Warren gives to the  identity we want. Tremble is mostly a blocker. Sanders flashed late but mostly a receiving  threat at the moment. Warren is an automatic 1st down, run blocks, runs the ball and can even line up and throw it. To me he is if you took the Taysom Hill and actually could play tight end too. I just think looking at Goedert, Kelce,  Laporta, Hoeckenson, Baltimore Tight ends, Knox and Kindcaid and etc... all the  last few teams had stellar Tight end play. Warren allows you to be unpredictable  on offense bc he is equally good at being a target, as he is a blocker. Don't want to run Bryce on a qb sneak, plug Warren in with the threat to pass. I would be happy with him, Walker or a few others. As long as the player isn't riding the bench year 1.
