Dallas' response: Play great in the preseason and maybe you'll get your wish.


5Stars response: What, that is your attitude? Clean out your locker and get the hell outta here!

I don't want players that don't want to be here, period!

:cool:

i really hope this isn't true because i wanted him around. if that's his attitude then good riddance.

you could see this coming mile away. Jenkins will want to start. But I don't think Dallas will trade him until training camp starts and another team loses a starting CB to injury. Dallas wasn't getting what they wanted in trade in this draft...so they will just wait teams out.

Love the way he plays...but i hate his ****ing attitude

He played pretty good last season for being injured...now he wants out? Maybe his mind is weak and does not like the competition that the Cowboys just picked up with MO...

Idiot!

Once a player asks for a trade you have to give it to him. He's not good enough at 100%. A half-***** Jenkins shouldn't be on this team if he doesn't want to be here.

He' a friggen idiot! The Cowboys just drafted some good defense players that can help him rest during games so that he does not have to play injured or while he's still in rehab, and the fool does not appreciate that?

That kind of attitude just pissed me off...ship his butt to the worst team in the NFL and see how he likes it.

Hold him until at least July. His value will rise as the season nears.


This! And IIRC the trade deadline has been pushed further into the season, also. Wait for a team to get desperate and fleece them.

No... I don't think so.

I think he's here all season.

As a side note, he may not even play (much) in the preseason due to his shoulder surgery.

He's going to have rise to the level of competition... After he gets healthy of course.
Yup. Either step up or fold, MJ.

If he's healthy in training camp, plays well in a preseason game, and some team's corner goes down for half the season, I can see him being moved.

If he half ***** it he's ******** cause how he plays this season will determine how much he makes next year in FA

Good grief people. Give the guy some space before blasting him.

The team just spent $10M per on Carr and drafted a TOP CB prospect #6 overall. This is not about Jenkins being afraid of competition. With Jenkins rehabbing a serious injury this competition is over.

It is understandable if the day after the draft he is confused as to his best next steps. The guy very likely has the skills, if he gets healthy, for a very good payday. But the road to that destination is now very, very cloudy.

He's confused. I'll give him some space.

He's stupid! And, now I feel stupid for hoping he stays at least this season, which he most likely will! I hate players with that kind of attitude...

I'm not bashing him at all. He's is now behind Claiborne and Carr and wants a lead roll that he no longer will have here. I said give him the trade.

Why wouldn't he ask for a trade ? He will barely get on the field.

I would give him some space also if I were Jerry! All the space on my private jet to send his butt out of town.

I'm really disappointed that he said that, if he really does want out.

How do you know that. How does he know that?

Hell, if I'm coming off an injury like his, and the team goes out and gets help in my area with a great chance to have a good season, maybe a SB?

Screw him now...

Even Frank Walker and Alan Ball saw a bunch of snaps for us last year. He'll play plenty.

5Stars,

Seriously, I think he's just responding similarly to how you are. He's very disappointed and saying the first thing he can think of in response. Cooler heads will prevail and we'll make the best of this tough situation.

Maybe that will be a trade, in time. I just hope we don't to make a snap judgment when that really doesn't serve us well. I don't think we will. I fully expect Mike Jenkins will be part of this team through training camp.

Plenty of time to get his head on straight.
