Malcolm Jenkins-NFL's next elite safety

I have to admit he's looking pretty good as a Safety patrolling centerfield...

I was pissed when we took him, especially a Buckeye, over Clay Matthews who I had a serious man crush for the Saints to draft...

First Round picks on Defensive Backs are a serious risk and I thought Matthews, and I was right, was the real deal...

But watching him break up plays in the middle, he's really got that ball hawk mentality of swiping pigeons out the air, this past year...

And I'd say besides Roman Harper's pisspoor play, his injury was why we lost the Seahawks game - if you wanted to name one factor more than any other - no way Hasselbeck and Co. win that game; seeing Harper in rear center coverage left them licking their chops...

Rear center wasn't what Harper f'ed up on. One was an out and up that he bit on like Jason David always did, and the other was the old lay down and act blocked, then get up trick play.

Those are the two plays he blew.

The kid is fiery and he's got tough guy attitude. It might get him in trouble but I love the guy.
