True. But JJ has some good skills. He isn't overly fast and certainly not overly strong or big. But I am willing to give him a little more time than just 1 year. Get that dude on some juice and in the weight room, then see what happens. Timmons seemed like a dud his rookie year too, and now he is one of our best players on the whole team.
"My team, may they always be right, but right or wrong...MY TEAM!"
What are you talking about? Timmons gets torched by your WR-type TEs... And who is anyone kidding, Timmons SUCKED as a rookie and didn't even get very good until around his 3rd or 4th year. People have short memories.
Timmons isn't that fast. He was pretty fast as a rookie but he was weak... I remember watching him try to use his "speed" to simply run around LT and it didn't work 1 bit. The LT just pushed him upfield and as such, he ran himself out of the play. Fast forward to today...He's no where near as fast as he was especially considering how much bulk he added. Even though the bulk slowed him down a bit, he's now a better player and has the strength to hold up at ILB.
What is the infatuation with calling someone a star or bust after 1 year?
If JJ could have only lived up to the standard that Timmons set as a rookie. All 13 combined tackles.
Name an LB who can cover the monster TEs of today, let alone WRs. Give me some names. If you come up with five I will be very surprised. And I mean five legitimate names, not bullshyte.
