Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins

Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
I'm not sure how I feel about this. 2 years ago is a different story. Does this mean Bell is gone?

Demario Davis and Malcolm Jenkins will be double teaming social injustices in NOLA.

Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
He plays SS right? Could Bell take Marcus "still don't know how to tackle" Williams' spot?
XLIV CHAMPS |
Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
He was better after he left. We had crappy position coaches back then. I hope he still has gas left in the tank. I'm curious. I'd like to know the length of the contract. He's 32. I don't know anyone who got faster as they got older.

Time will tell if Vonn re signs in NO or goes elsewhere. Edit ** According to a tweet from Underhill, the Saints offered Bell $7.5M but his camp wanted more. Hence the Jenkins signing. Vonn is probably done as a Saint. |
Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
Please don't pay too much.

Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
I like Jenkins. I was just hoping if he signed with us we would still have Bell. I see apple is gone too

He played at a high level last year, but I hope this isn't just SP making amends for what he called a mistake. The Roman Harper return didn't produce much.
That said, I'm happy we are not paying Bell more than $8 million quick edit- Jenkins $32 million for 4 years. Oof |
Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
32 million for a 32 year old FS and we let a young one that was 24 who had his best season last year go....Mark Ingram situation all over again....smh

Hopefully this is really just a 1 yr deal with a team option.

Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
The deal’s only around $16 mil guaranteed making it essentially a two year deal.
And we didn’t get rid of Vonn Bell for a 32 year old Malcolm Jenkins. Gardner-Johnson made Vonn Bell expendable. |
Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
Right.
A two year deal @8M per season. IMO that's a discount & just tad over the Eagles contract. Essentially Malcolm took about the same amount of cash to come back. Says a lot to me. |

Bring in a rookie on a cheap deal and let players walk because you've already drafted his replacement when his contract is too expensive. |

With Bell, it could have been that it wasn't a good "fit". Vonn is a solid player but very limited in coverage and teams capitalized on that. Malcolm and Gardner-Johnson are guys who can cover with little help. Hopefully, that will allow Marcus to roam and make more plays. Maybe in the eyes of coaches, having Jenkins gives the Saints the better chance to get back to where we want to be. |
Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
Read beyond the headline people... Jenkins is 19M guaranteed.
According to PFF, Jenkins graded slightly above Bell last season. Jenkins doesn't make the mistakes Bell does. We got AT LEAST the same level of production for LESS money. That's good business. And now we can spend on Jenkins and more impact FAs. |
Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
Jenkins had 1 good year here, his rookie year. We'll see what we get the bone headed Jenkins or the finally woke up Jenkins? I would have signed Bell.
|
Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
Kinda scary when we bring back DBs after they have solid years somewhere after leaving here. Then we get the old, worm out guy that gets injured or is too slow.
Hope this works out. I really do, but I'm not holding my breath. |

Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
4 yr 32 million? Rather expensive for a man on the decline. I would rather have Bell back.

Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
Chauncey Gardner Johnson earned a starting spot for next season in my opinion. Jenkins is on the backend of his career, but he can be a good mentor to the young guys, and still has something to give on the field, hopefully. We're still pretty strong at safety.
I'm more worried about our linebacker corps. Other than DD, we are WEAK AF. |

Kiko, Anzalone, K Ellis ... all coming off serious knee and shoulder issues + Craig is SLOW & not much depth behind him. If Demario ever misses time, we are in trouble here. He's become Michael Thomas of the defense. AJ Klien's replacement isn't on the roster ... yet. Maybe the Saints draft one. |
Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
The kind of player you sign for one more push. I personally like it. He still has the skills and will not make the young mistakes that have literally cost the Saints a title or two.

Re: Saints closing in on signing S Malcolm Jenkins
Big difference in the way Schwartz run his D than Allen. Going to see how Jenkins fits over Bell ?

I remember about 90% of this board wanted him run out of New Orleans and said so constantly.
