Whats Your Take On Peria Jerry? At This Point Is He Done Or Is There Still Hope


Recommended Posts

The dude has talent and even after injury has shown he still has that Quickness that made him a top talent but why no production and I point to the injury lost in that stupid rotation thing and BVG. When Jerry did play last year he did apply pressure at times but wasn't very good against the run and just very inconsistent. And I though he would be cut this year but I think he has a cap hit of under a million so I really don't see him going anywhere for at least this season. And with him being a former 1st rounder like Baker the Falcons are likley to again to give him the another shot to be at least a productive rotation player.

So do any of you all think he could finally have an impact in Nolans system? And like I said I think the talent is still there its a matter of production at this point and Jerry's like 27 so I believe he may have a sense of urgency seeing he could be cut and out of football all together if he doesn't make it happen this season.

Well I am really worried about this guy's future, but seeing as how I am a hopeless homer I will keep hoping he can develop into a player worthy of the draft pick we used on him. But I think this is THE YEAR to either show it, or be shown the door. I don't forget he had a very serious injury his first year here, but it's time to get it done or get going IMHO.

If there's hope for DeCoud there's hope for PJ.

I think that knee injury is alot worse than anyone has reported I just think he has never going to have the explosion we saw when he first came here.

I think the guy has never fully recovered mentally hey it happens.I for one am hoping for positive stuff from PJ but again its wait and see.

Yes I remember Jamal Anderson every year I was holding out hope that he showed something thatwould make me change his mind that he wasnt a bust but year after year the samething so i just gave up hope. :( Deep down I am holding on to a little hope that Jerry with coach Nolan's help can make a change.

I was a huge Jerry fan since Ole Miss is my team.

Regrettably I believe he's done.

I only believe something that I see. I don't see Peria Jerry as an effective DT in the NFL.

I think his knee injury is affecting his play, meaning I think he's afraid to go all out and play on it. He shows momentary flashes of good play and then he disappears with another injury, if that.

It's up to Peria at this point. If he doesn't get over his fear and get his motivation going, he's over.

He might not be done he might need to have a good game or the new coach could light a fire under his butt and explain to him this is his last year to show something or he is done but like someone else said he might be scared that he is going to get hurt again and if thats the case he is done.

He never was the same player for us that he was in college when he led the SEC in takles for loss. Of course the early knee changed everything, there could be something to do with fear of testing it. I think he stays another year because the cap hit would be too much and DT are always in high demand.
