I assume everyone has noticed that Jimmy was cut by the Broncos. Its not something I would snicker at, but it does show it wasn't just an inability of our coaching staff to get through to him.
For all our hair-pulling over the "busts" we do as Ram Fans over our past DT draft woes, its all hindsight 20/20 over Kennedy, Lewis, and Pickett.
Everyone had those 3 high on their draft lists. Jimmy just has to make improving his level of play a priority, or he may be done. What a shame, he has more tools than a lot of NFL starters, but falls well below the "heart and pride" charts of those players. Put Grant Wistrom's guts and heart in his body, and he'd knock the front door to Canton down. Only way Jimmy's getting in there is to pay admission just like you and me.
If Adam Carriker develops into the player we all think he will, there's no reason Jimmy couldn't do the same. Only difference between them is Adam seems to have enough drive and eagerness to learn for both of them, and Jimmy's is all but nonexistent.
