Not in my opinion

he is solid at evals but his rankings are usually weak

jeanpierre · 04-10-2013, 07:00 AM

Like all contemporary journalists, Kiper's sources of information, i.e. agents, college staff, coaches, players want some loyalty in return so what makes his columns so informative are also, compromised...

Jarvis Jenkins' case of spinal stenosis scares the hell out of me and there's no way I'd invest anything higher than a fourth rounder on a player with a pre-existing condition like that...

Some of you may remember when we had one of the toughest defenses of all time and our weak link was at cornerback; well we thought we had finally struck gold with CB Vince Buck and guess what ended his career?!? Younger fans may remember him from Cottman Transmission Commercials...
