Rams CB Janoris Janoris Jenkins, Jeff Fisher Don't Like Pacman Comparisons

Found April 28, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Jeff Fisher
The Rams were not afraid to roll the dice by drafting cornerback Janoris Jenkins. Just don't tell Jenkins he's another Pacman Jones. “I mean, no, because I never shot up a strip club or nothing like that,” Jenkins told Sirius XM NFL Radio via PFT. Jenkins said that teams that passed on him are "gonna pay" and the Rams clearly agree. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch said the team debated whether to keep Jenkins on their draft board last week, but obviously decided he was worth taking. Coach Jeff Fisher didn't love the comparisons to Jones. "I'm not anticipating any issues whatsoever with Janoris," Fisher said. "OK? I'm not. 'Pac' checked out pretty good in all our background checks. He had one minor issue as a (college) freshman. His issues came after he got into the league. Janoris, again we're not concerned about him. He's a first-round talent."

Janoris Jenkins has a hilarious reason why he rejects the Pacman Jones comparison

Via Larry Brown Sports  |  April 28, 2012
Talented cornerback. Multiple off-the-field issues. Drafted by Jeff Fisher. The comparisons between Janoris Jenkins and Pacman Jones are evident. But because of one glaring difference, Jenkins doesn’t buy the link to the notoriously oft-troubled Jones. The Rams’ second-round pick jumped on SiriusXM radio with host Adam Schein on Friday and rejected the Pacman comparison when...

First round over, Rams' draft begins in second

Via Fox Sports Midwest  |  April 27, 2012
ST. LOUIS Now their draft begins. Sure, the St. Louis Rams made LSU defensive tackle Michael Brockers the 14th overall pick Thursday, and coach Jeff Fisher called him NFL-ready, and general manager Les Snead said he was one of the top-rated players on their board. All those things happened on a night of drama and possibility, but the Rams' draft doesn't truly start until...

ST. LOUIS A legacy has begun. Coach Jeff Fisher and general manager Les Snead will make selections in the last four rounds, of course, but the foundation of the St. Louis Rams' first NFL Draft under new leadership was set early Friday night. There were various messages sent with the three players taken in the second round: Snead and Fisher trust their instincts when evaluating...

ST. LOUIS (AP) Coach Jeff Fisher ended his first draft with the St. Louis Rams on Saturday by revealing he will go with a rookie kicker this season. St. Louis reached out to select kicker Greg Zuerlein of Missouri Western in the sixth round.

There probably isn't a very long list of items that the St. Louis Rams' new football tandem of head coach Jeff Fisher and general manager Les Snead salvaged from the rubble left behind by its predecessors, except a penchant for picking good talent in the second round. The significance of that key ingredient was magnified on Friday night, of course, when the Rams exercised...

The seeds to the St. Louis Rams' secretive plans to draft Appalachian State wideout Brian Quick reportedly were hatched earlier this week during a clandestine trip to Boone, N.C. There Rams coach Jeff Fisher, general manager Les Snead, a host of scouts and backup quarterbacks Kellen Clemens and Tom Brandstater ran Quick through a carefully scripted workout that left Fisher convinced...

Jeff Fisher looks to nip bad behavior in the 'bud' with Janoris Jenkins

Via 60 Max Power O  |  April 28, 2012
The St. Louis Rams took a chance on troubled but talented CB Janoris Jenkins last night. The 23-year-old has quite a bit of baggage - a 2009 arrest at bar fight in '09, two marijuana citations in '11, getting kicked off Florida and an Antonio Cromartie-esq four children at the tender age of 23. Yet still, he's a great pick if Fisher can keep him in check. Coach Fisher...
