One of the best cornerbacks available in free agency appears set to choose New York over Los Angeles.

Rams cornerback Janoris Jenkins is poised to sign with the Giants, Adam Schefter of ESPN reported and a source confirmed to PFT.

The Rams had interest in keeping Jenkins, although doing so would have been expensive, and perhaps too expensive after cornerback Trumaine Johnson signed his $14 million franchise tender.

Jenkins has been a starter in all four of his seasons since the Rams drafted him in 2012, and now he’ll be the No. 1 cornerback for the Giants.

Hope you like the weather in December ya prick.....

I don't understand insulting the guy for going with the best offer on the table.

My opinion of him as a person and player won't change. The guy showed growth on the field and off, no arrests, no suspensions and his last two years with the Rams were his best. Deserved to get paid. Good luck to him.

 

[LumberTubs]

This is the business I'm afraid. The Rams clearly felt his salary demands outweighed what he added to the team so he's gone. We've just got to trust the front office when making these decisions.

Good teams don't overpay. Hopefully when people look back on this in however many years' time, it'll be seen as the smart move on our part.

 

[OldSchool]

Curious about the money he gets. He's absolutely not worth some of the huge numbers being thrown around.

 

[Elmgrovegnome]

He will have a good decent year and then return back to his game costing mistakes. I was never a fan.

I understand it. The Rams are starting to get closer to being a contender. They can't really afford to lose good players right now. Plus Jenkins talked about LA and playing in warm weather and keeping the Defensive backfield intact "Migos". It gave a lot of fans hope.....Now they are pissed because he turned his back on them. Fan stands for Fanatic. Natural to me and that passion is what makes sports so much fun.

This. So long as the money saved is well spent, I have no trouble with this. He'll be good at times, and frustrating at times. If there's one thing I trust the Snisher regime on though, it's finding good deals on the secondary. I'd rather they spend money on the offense, especially receivers, since they don't seem to develop any.

Yeah, I'm a fan, but all I am is disappointed he won't be back.

Wouldn't expect him to turn down a raise just to make me happy.

personally always felt he was a little overated .... I don't blame him following the money glad it wasn't the rams giving it to him ...I said in a post ages ago he wouldn't be back as a ram

 

[Selassie I]

I'm pissed.

 

[LumberTubs]

At least $12m per year is excessive for a CB who was outstanding in 2015 but prone to huge errors prior to that. I'm ok with the Rams not meeting those demands if the numbers quoted turn out to be accurate.

Eh. If the Giants offered more money, that's his prerogative. Although, I hope he took cost of living into account. Because New York is crazy expensive.(so is LA)

Glad the Rams stuck to their guns. They had a number and the Giants jumped it probably by a nice margin. It's what many expected. Rams have to pay others. Now, go sign Barron and McLeod

 

[jrry32]

I wonder if any of the old Rams warned Jenkins about how terrible Spagnuolo is?

 

[12intheBox]

Let's hope the $$ is as big as possible. Better comp pick that way.

 

[den-the-coach]

I'm not happy and the fact that he's a Giant is worse, but I hope he likes the cold wind of December....Also I will be in London-town come October and I hope he does not intercept the ball and take it the distance.

 

[Loyal]

I am not taking the high road..screw him. I hope his career goes into sh*tter....Fisher and the Rams took a chance on this clown, and the risk happened to payoff (mostly)...I hope the Rams make the playoffs for the next few years, while the Giants self destruct..I guess Janoris can count his money, out to lawyers when he f*cks up!

ok, that was cathartic:rant:

There are more than one kind of fan. Some are calm and cool others are very passionate and easily angered or elated. I don't judge people for their varying degrees of emotion.
