February 25, 200917 yr comment_58836 As per PFT, Jenkins ran slower then expected, and teams may view him as a safety. Which would drop him out of the top 10, which means he could be available at #18. How would you like him as our safety? Here's what PFT said: JENKINS COULD BE SLIDING Posted by Mike Florio on February 24, 2009, 9:54 a.m. Tony Pauline of SI.com reports that Ohio State cornerback Malcolm Jenkins ran 40-yard dashes on Tuesday ranging from 4.52 to 4.58 seconds. Per Pauline, a number of scouts believed that Jenkins needed to break 4.50 in order to stay in the top ten of the draft. He also predicts that some teams will now begin grading Jenkins as a safety and not as a cornerback. We’ll run a link to Pauline’s daily recap at SI.com when it’s posted later today.

If he does decide he'll play FS for some team, I'd take him under these onditions: if we signed Barnes to our starting RT and St.Clair to swing tackle. That would ease a glaring need for OL depth and talent. Report
