Jennings not only couldn't tackle and he never looked for the ball, playing defense in the slot is more than just being fast, just because you're guarding slot receivers doesn't mean you don't need ball skills, you have to be able to break up passes often times when face-guarding a receiver. Horrible idea.

Like has been said, Jennings is not physical enough to play the nickle spot where he would be asked to support the run defense. He would probably spook QB's from time to time thinking their guy was covered but once they again figure him out, the QB's will simply ignore that Jennings is even there. Bingo don't forget with the back shoulder throw being so popular now the guy would be toast.

Would he be ok in the slot against smaller pass catchers? HELL TO THE NO! Took 2 years too long to get rid of him the first time!

I don't think any player caused more frustration for me than Jennings. . . Always a finger nail away. Always in position it was incredible how close he was every time.

 In 91 career games, this is the only real impact play that he has made. It is interesting how many people say he never made a play on the ball since he always had about the same amount of passes defensed as Shawn Springs who most of the fans around here who never saw Dave Brown play considered to be our best corner until Richard Sherman came along. He simply gave up too many catches.

Slim could have been the man. It really is unfortunate what happened. Good rookie year then *poof*

Here's what I remember about Jennings. Yes he was always in his guys hip pocket, and was always in perfect position to tackle him AFTER he made the catch. I'm not sure I recall him ever defensing a ball thrown his way.

91 career games and he's amassed an astounding 2 interceptions and 1 forced fumble. The fact that he got burned constantly wouldn't be quite so bad if he could force a turnover more than once every 3 years (which is sadly actual average.)

So you're saying he has a lot of potential then.
