Kris Jenkins Is Why I'm Scared Of Drafting a Defensive Tackle

[beastson]

Especially a big one

We had our all-pro DT and that went down the drain with constant injuries. Haven't been the same since up front. I think we've been cursed there

Could MLB also be a position cursed ?

I've been thinking the same. No big fat guys in the first please.

Curses? stfu&gtfo.

I remember the Wesley Walls curse at tight end, but that really stopped last year with Olsen and Shockey. It turns out that if you ignore a position and only throw a day two or three pick at it every once in a while, said position will suck. It's probably the same with DT.

As for MLB, we've already gotten like 3 all-pro seasons out of beason before he got injured, so that is a really delayed curse. I love Morgan, but he tackled with his noggin and the injuries shouldn't be a shock.

Jenkins just refused to keep his fat ass in shape. He always ballooned up in the offseason and I always said it would catch up with him. In his younger years, he was able to work his way back into playing shape through camp and the preseason, but the older you get, the harder it is to pull it off.

If Jenkins would've committed to keeping himself under 350, probably in the 330 range, he'd probably still be playing. I'd be willing to bet that he played a lot of snaps over 400.

Kris Jenkins helped propel our defensive line to elite status which helped us get to our first Super Bowl which we lost because of John Kasay's choke and God himself Tom Brady. What's the bad part about drafting another Jenkins? Having a great line?

True....

But it would have been terrific if he lasted just a little longer. And idk if there's a Kris this draft... just like nobody knew Kris would be Kris coming out
