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.

Malcolm Jenkins looked very comfortable out there. It was good to get some playing time before we play New England. Gregg Williams has given him an ideal situation to be in.

I am happy that he got his first int. It is a great thing that they got him, with all of these injuries.

With an interception in his first start, it looks like the Saints made a very good pick in the draft. Gotta like big, physical cornerbacks who aren't afraid of contact as he will only make our defense that much better and deeper (talent-wise)...

Jenkins did a nice job against Bryant. I thought he was really good in run support. Congrats on the nice first start, Malcolm. That being said, I really hope Greer is back for the Pats game.

I need to step up and congratulate MJ. He had a solid first start and this was an important step in his maturation.

He has all the tools and that bit of confidence should only make him better.
