Funny thing is Dennis Hickey claimed him off waivers from NO and then we waived/cut him a year or so later
he bounded back to NO and got trashed again and then lands in NE -- where his transition to LB was finally
completed! Point is he's far from a special player/athlete but persisted and gets the benefit of being used
effectively within his limitations.
Personally I don't see much resemblance to Van Ginkel -- who's a superior athlete and way longer longer looking
on the field wheres Ninkovich is "thick" and definitely looks like a converted stubby DE.
Tho I know you weren't really directly comparing them as players but R5 picks.
:)
Yeah, definitely. I made the comparison to say, like, hey, Ninkovich wasn't an HOF guy but the Pats used him well and got a reliable cog for their defense for the majority of a decade-long career.
