I would say that my biggest problem with Jenkins is that he looks like he feels entitled. Perhaps he has seen his name in the top 10 and feels like he is the man. There just isn't enough in his game for me to buy into the hype. In fact, I'd say he's about the same type of CB as Vontae Davis in this draft. He may be so impressed with his so-called cover skills that he doesn't feel the need to help out against the run. If he had gone to the Senior Bowl and showed what he can do against other "talent" then I may be less hard on him. It will be interesting if he participates at the Combine or if he'll just stand on his Pro-Day numbers.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not throwing him under the bus, he's my #10 player on my draft board. I just happen to have DJ Moore rated ahead of him.
