michiganjoe posted:Nickel back from Alabama cut by the Chargers who apparently ran a 4.35.
The quick summary: Track-style speed. Coverage skills, awareness and tackling-reliability are lacking.
He was also suspended indefinitely at one point, but reduced to four games.
Sounds like a real lump of coal in the rough.
In a short cut up of his play, I saw that he has some speed and did well on a screen. He did not do well on pass protection. And I can’t believe we are talking about a player soon to be cut. Probably because we are thin at RB. He may be a player for Zook to bolster STs.
Panthers sign CB Josh Hawkins to their PS.
Jeff Janis! had speed, too.
Speed kills.
Janis! killed me. One good game in how many years???

Outside of special teams gunner, he had one good MINUTE as a WR in his Packer career.
But what a minute...It lives in GB history. Give him his due. He gave us plenty of non football fun over the last three years and after all, our entertainment is what it is all about.
He's gone but not forgotten. Janis!
While his routes are forgotten.
What routes? I thought he just ran around in a stochastic pattern.
Stochastic routes (n): 1. what the rabbit in the backyard runs 2. what Rodgers accused Janis! of running for three years.
( gotta admit; I had to google it!)

I hope not. If he has speed to burn - it will be a short life for him.
