So... I'm a little confused here.

Oh and he also posted the best three-cone time for corners at the combine.

Since when did a 4.55 become fast for a defensive back drafted with intent to play cornerback? The three-cone drill is based on quickness, change of direction, and acceleration...not speed. Malcolm Jenkins is not fast. He chased down Vincent Jackson, who looked exhausted and was pulling up. Not to mention he isn't that fast either. Jenkins made some big plays. He's got potential, but this is the make it or break it year for him.
