brandon jenkins waived

[skinsdad62]

this is confusing on twitter but he was cut to make room for hurt and then not

 

[deanpet21]

wow. no nonsense from the skins brass. So I guess its safe to say that Jackson is the 4th OLB.

Another draft pick bits the dust we need hit more

I am not shocked at this move at all. We have barely seen the guy since week 1 or 2 last year. Apparently he struggled throughout the OTAs.

I saw a few people pencil him in in front of Jackson. What did the guy ever do to prove he deserved a spot over Rob?

 

[skinsdad62]

i think his pass rush potential is what kept interest in him . perhaps jenkins has to be a 4-3 de

and jackson make the grade so there we have one issue settled

He was a 6th round pick, if I remember correctly. Not a huge issue. But your point is valid that outside our 1st round picks, we have not done well in the draft. Especially in rounds 2-5 where most of your depth comes from.

 

[deanpet21]

him and Thompson were drafted in the 5th rounds Wasn't Thompson drafted ahead of Ellington who is now a top 10 fantasy RB. lol

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

Jackson' played at kansas state emaw!!!!

 

[deanpet21]

confirmed. Thompson was drafted ahead of Ellington by a full round. wow.

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

Draft a crap shoot for sure

 

[deanpet21]

Yes but wasn't Ellington rated a lot higher they are the same type of back.

With the Redskins drafting Murphy it was a numbers game and Jenkins just wasn't cutting it

 

[deanpet21]

Jenkins competition was Jackson. Plus he has no special teams value which makes him easier to cut.
