This is the only reason I mentioned Suh.pigmaker wrote:a more apt comparison for justin blackmon is charles rogers. top 10 wr draft pick, former college star, got paid and started smoking crack.
In my opinion Charles Rogers is not that good of a comparison. He had 5 average games then was out with injury for the next 27 games.
When he came back from that he was out of shape and didn't play well. He was then suspended for for 4 games and again didn't play well once he returned.
Once he got cut, he still had interest from several teams but wasn't signed do to poor performance at his workouts.
So far, Justin Blackmon has shown far more talent and hasn't missed 27 games due to injury.
He has also shown that despite his off the field troubles he can keep himself in "playing shape".
The other thing is as you stated, Charles Rogers "got paid and started smoking crack." which goes a little to my point of the NFL and GM's
weighing some drugs and some offenses more than others.
Blackmon entered rehab today and the Jags have already said they are not cutting ties with him.
In my opinion, he will be given at least one more chance and IF he can still play at a high level he'll remain in the league.pigmaker wrote:MEC wrote:Of course, I don't know how much logical reason to expect out of someone trying to get $600 for a Psych Byke.
