Re: Jenkins haters rise up
I always thought he'd be a better corner than safety.

Re: Jenkins haters rise up
I'm not a Jenkins hater but two picks in two weeks by Quddus shows who the better safety is in my opinion

Re: Jenkins haters rise up
For a 1st round draft pick at #14 if my memory serves me right and for him to be under the totoledge of one of the best safeties to ever play the game of football in Sharper, he's a bust at FS. I still believe he could( let me go out on a limb only because of a high draft pick I don't want to see wasted) and say he possibly could become a SS, I do feel he has enough speed for that but his tackling would need to improve for even that to happen, he has the size and speed but for whatever reason up in that coconut head of his the light just seems to flicker on from time to time but never stays on constantly. He also could be trade bait to get us an extra pick in the draft but as a FS, I personally think he stinks and don't ever want to see him line up in the FS spot ever again. Quaddus has the tools to be great at FS and I hope he stays at there for for a long time.

Re: Jenkins haters rise up
He is doing us no favors at FS. I would be open to see him moved back to CB but if that don't work, he's gotta go.

Re: Jenkins haters rise up
Not ready to give up on him yet but I hope the coaches play who ever is the best man at the position. Right now that looks like Quduus.

Re: Jenkins haters rise up
Re-watched the pic yesterday. There was severe pressure in the pocket. Jenkins seldom gets that luxury. Still, you're right, it may be time to re-evaluate the position. Quddus is not some filler undrafted player. The man is making plays.

Re: Jenkins haters rise up
Personally I don't think he has the speed and ball instincts to be a successful corner back. I think his best role would be in a hybrid defense where he plays the big nickel. Almost that same role Thomas Davis was playing in Carolina. Malcolm has decent tackling, a penchant for making the big play when it comes to tackling just not picking balls from the air. I think Spags is the type of coordinator that will scheme something that allows Jenkins to be successful. Jenkins was trying to play the Sharper role in Gregg Williams defense and he's just not that guy.
