Well done Malcolm Jenkins

This young man deserves a thread of his own after his performance today. He look solid all day long, especially on that interception. I was very impressed with how well he looked in coverage, and he wasn't afraid to step up in run support. My hat is off to you Malcolm, making our talent scouts look very good.

Re: Well done Malcolm Jenkins

Yer totally agree, that diving interception was brilliant showed his playmaking skills. From what ive seen he didn't get beat for any long gains all day and showed good maturity.
When he was in the combine, they said he didn't have great speed cuz of his 40 yard dash time, i saw him break on a deep out pattern today and knock the ball away.

GOOD JOB MALCOLM!!

Re: Well done Malcolm Jenkins

Our injury problems couldn't have worked out better for Jenkins. He's healthy and has some time in now and today was a perfect time to see the field and get some valuable experience and for the Saints to get an idea of what they have in Jenkins. Being forced into action today will only help us in the long run. I liked him as a corner since the day we drafted him. I like his size, long arms, playmaking ability, and tackling. He showed some strength and physicality when he took Graham down by himself. This was something our front 7 struggled to do early in the game.

Everyone keeps saying this and I understand your thinking, but the coaching staff, as of right now, wants to get a look at him at CB and for a million reasons, I think this is a good idea.

I'm talking about more as a DB in general and a pick-six machine.

Let's hope he takes this as a positive and really study the tapes on the plane ride home, in the shower, in his sleep, wherever he goes, because the Pats WR's are world class, not redneck riviera placeholders.

Re: Well done Malcolm Jenkins

He had a very solid first start. Congrats to him. Hope he prepares his butt off, because as stated, Brady is not Freeman and the WR's are 10x better.

Re: Well done Malcolm Jenkins

A buddy of mine and I had a long debate before the draft. He thought we should choose Beanie Wells over Malcolm Jenkins. I, of course, was pro-Jenkins. After his pick today, I sent him a text saying. "Jenkins with an INT in his first NFL start. Beanie who?"

He played a great game. He was all around the ball and if he didn't make the tackle, he was near the pile. He showed great run-coverage, and his pass coverage was pretty great. That one great pass Freeman threw to Bryant for a first down deep in their own territory was just that....a great pass. You couldn't have asked for better coverage on a receiver. It was a perfectly thrown ball behind the receiver where only he could get to it. I'm glad to see him have a game like this in his first start.
