Videos of top prospects going head to head.

I love those Jenkins videos. I was at both the UGA/UF and USC/UF game that year. That catch at ~3 mins by Jeffery, Jenkins wasn't covering him just to let people know.

This thread is going to be hard to sustain because theres not many match ups out there to begin with, let alone videos.

Most of the time Mark Barron was covering Jeffrey. Kirkpatrick was beat on really 1 pass, and the other was a great catch made by Jeffrey with perfect coverage by Kirkpatrick. I can kind of see why Barron is considered a 2nd round pick now. We realistically could draft Kirkpatrick and Barron both in this draft... that would be nuts.

Jenkins has no value in the top ten and won't be there in the second.

Kirkpatrick is my guy.

Do you think Dre is a better CB than Jenkins? Or do you just think Dre's potential and Jenkins off the field record is what puts him over the top?

I said it in August, I'll say it now. Dre doesn't impress me in coverage.

Dre looks like an elite corner, and several scouts have Kirkpatrick rated higher than Claiborne. The combine could switch Kirkpatrick and Claiborne on many draft boards.. I still think Claiborne would be a better prospect for our defense than Kirk, but I'd be happy with either.

From what I have seen in the 2 years I have been following Dre, he is a physical dude. He can tackle, he play physical at the line, he can support in the run game, he can play zone coverage, but when it comes to man to man I have my doubts.

Can he turn into a great CB, sure. He has all the physical tools and potential to do so. But if you are asking me if he is an elite corner in CFB, I would say no.

I just know that I am going to have to start warming up to him because he is a very likely candidate for our pick.

Why?? He has done nothing special and played against absolutely nobody worth a damn,well except Jeffery and you saw how that worked out for him.

I think hes tall for the position and a hard hitter but that does not make me see him as a top ten pick.

    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
