He's like our Sedrick Ellis, minus the ring.

Sadly, Peria Jerry reached his ceiling in college football at Ole Miss. He had a bad injury in '09 and that ultimately killed his career.
Slightly feel bad for the guy but he made a lot of money. Hope he was smart with it!

ETA: Most Falcons fans are EXTREMELY happy he retired. This is the old addition by subtraction theory.

He had a really bad injury at the beginning of his career. Also, he was older (24 or 25) when he was drafted.

2009 was such a crappy draft:

1 Detroit Lions Matthew Stafford
2 St. Louis Rams Jason Smith OT
3 Kansas City Chiefs Tyson Jackson DE
4 Seattle Seahawks Aaron Curry LB
5 New York Jets Mark Sanchez QB
6 Cincinnati Bengals Andre Smith OT
7 Oakland Raiders Darrius Heyward-Bey WR
8 Jacksonville Jaguars Eugene Monroe OT
9 Green Bay Packers B. J. Raji DT
10 San Francisco 49ers Michael Crabtree WR
11 Buffalo Bills Aaron Maybin DE
12 Denver Broncos Knowshon Moreno RB
13 Washington Redskins Brian Orakpo DE
14 New Orleans Saints Malcolm Jenkins CB



42 Buffalo Bills Jairus Byrd S


Saints' picks that year
quote:

1 14 NOR Malcolm Jenkins DB
4 116 NOR Chip Vaughn DB
4 118 NOR Stanley Arnoux LB
5 164 NOR Thomas Morstead P
