Will our 1st round pick be inactive this week?

[tayloner]

No, of course not Felix Jones. Rather, Mike Jenkins. Assuming Terence Newman, Anthony Spencer and Miles Austin all return from injury this week as planned, I see our inactive list playing out like this:

Brooks Bollinger
Sam Hurd
Doug Free
Kyle Kosier
Joe Berger
Mike Jenkins
Alan Ball
Courtney Brown

Of course, I could be wrong with these inactive "picks." However, even if Mike Jenkins was the first player in line to get on to the gameday 45 (which I'm sure he is), the only real options would be carrying only 6 offensive lineman (not a chance), or going with only 3 WRs again, and Stanback looked good enough last week for that not to happen.

Should we be upset that a first round pick was spent on a player that will be hanging out on the inactive list, or be happy since it is a testament to the massive amount of talent we have on this team?

I doubt if Jenkins would be inactive. They're paying him first round money. Stanback would probably sit before Jenkins would.

Agreed.

Really? 5 CBs and only 3 WRs? When one of those WRs is coming off injury? What about when Hurd comes back, does Jenkins make it over him to?

They'll probably suit up both Jenkins and Stanback. I'm just saying that between the two, Stanback is more likely to sit.

I'd think maybe McQuistan or Free

Jenkins has been a bust so far. Scandrick has severely outplayed him.

uh, no

True. And the funny thing is, had Jenkins outplayed Scandrick, I wouldn't have any basis to make this thread, cuz a 5th round pick being on the inactive list is no big deal. Ha.

 

[tayloner]

Maybe, but that leaves us with the 5 starters and only Montrae Holland. He barely knows our offense well enough to play guard, much less tackle or center. I guess some shuffling could be done, but I seriously doubt it.

 

[BigDinAZ]

Jenkins will play

Consider the source...

Good grief, will we ever have a 1st round pick that does not start from day 1 not be a bust according to this board?

That reminds me. Felix Jones can't hack it

 

[EPL0c0]

With Miles Austin likely to play, I can see them deactivating Tony Curtis and using Martellus Bennett more. Makes more sense than dropping Mike Jenkins.

 

[TwoSteppinJJ]

Jenkins is still learning the game, you don't see many 1st year cornerbacks who have alot of success. Shame on you for even associating his name with bust. Antonio Cromartie didn't even start a game in his rookie season and had no picks. So you do the math. Jenkins is going to become a good CB, theres no rush... Right theres 3 seasoned vets and another fantastic rookie ahead of him. No pressure on him to make plays or for him to quicken his learning experience. The coaches know what there doing and so does he. Time is on his side.

 

[Deep_Freeze]

I doubt if Jenkins would be inactive. They're paying him first round money. Stanback would probably sit before Jenkins would.

So was Barbie Carpenter back in the day, the inactive Barbie boy as a rookie.

Let's not have that happen again.

 

[Kangaroo]

This is funny Jenkins played last week but the only reason people even know Sandrick played is because of his penalties

Proctor can play both center and guard so Free is inactive for sure, Davis can play either tackle spot in a pinch so McQ can be inactive aswell and Holland can play in Bgg's spot if he has to. So Free and McQ, please be inactive. Geez just bringing 4 WR's is thin enough, you guys still want to leave it at 3 and leave Stanback behind? The line gets trimmed down for the active roster and rightfully so. Then again, now that Burnett is back Barbie can sit on the Eagles bench for all I care. That's solves the roster issue when Hurd comes back to. Just sit Barbie. Anyone opposed to sitting Free McQ and Barbie so that we'll have Austin,Hurd and Stanback when they are already to come back? We'd also have Jenkins playing which we need to pull Roy off in thos passing downs or TE situations. I'm definitely for it.
