Dude stands straight up on the snap most of the time . When he plays with leverage, he isn't bad. Not sure if it's bad coaching or effort with Jenkins

That's what worries most about him, is effort or is lack of coaching. Effort may very well have something to do with it, but the fact that he does not seemed to have progressed at all from his rookie season (when he basically outplayed Bunkley)is what makes me continue to question Bill Johnson

Jordan Rankins/Jenkins Fairley Richardson/Kikaha
Anthony Laurinatis Ellerbe/Robertson......The front four, minus Jordan, will be a revolving door depending on down and distances, also adding Davison, Edebali, Tull into the mix as well and perhaps Onyemata if he manages to see the field. This can be viewed as a good thing, "Depth/fresh legs" but it can also be viewed negatively as everyone besides Jordan on the line is not a definitive starter. On paper it looks as though we have real good depth, like there won't be much of any drop off from "starter" to "relief", but I feel like we've been saying that about positions like CB in the past and what that has taught us is that if there is no real drop off, then you really don't have a very good starter. Not saying they're bad, but are they making plays to win us games. I'm still cautiously optimistic though, can't help but get excited every single offseason!

Jenkins is hot garbage. The fact that he's still on the team speaks volumes about just how bad off we are depth wise.



He wasn't anywhere close to bad last year

He wasn't good in 14 but that was due to recovering from a torn pec
