Chocolate Lab;1919599 said:That's a good point.
But we'd gotten Jammer, it's almost guaranteed that we wouldn't have Newman. And Newman is a far better corner.

His game against the Pats was nice but the guy has been a penalty machine ever since hes been in the league.
He gets toasted a lot too.
The best thing that ever happened to him was Cromartie stepping up the way he has.
Cromartie is a top 5 corner. Jammer doesn't even sniff top 5.
CoCo;1919614 said:True.
And had we picked Jammer (not that we had a chance), and then passed on Newman, we may have picked Suggs, and then passed on Ware.
So how bout we pass on Roy, trade down and grab Ed Reed. Very nice! (or Henderson at 9, Freeney at 11, or Haynesworth at 15)
PS - just noticed Colombo was #29 overall that year, speaking of irony.
Ahhh, the benefits of hindsight.

mickgreen58;1919620 said:I think Quentin Jammer is a very solid cornerback in the NFL.
Throughout his college career, he was known for being physical and his aggressive nature.
To continue, I think the Pro-Wide Receiver Rules the NFL has instated has really limited players like Quentin Jammer, who are very aggressive and like to punish Wide Receivers. Once he started operated under NFL guidelines, I think a little bit of his natural instincts were taken away.
It probably took Quentin Jammer quite of bit of time to change his playing style in order to play within the framework of the NFL rules regarding Pass Interference while also trying to be an effective Cornerback.
