In three man fronts, I do think the the pick up of Jenkins will lead to him spending more time at LDE. Will move inside (probably with Jordan) in 4 man fronts.

I think he will be a perfect fit for a 3-4 DE him, Jenkins, and Jordan could be a solid group

They'll play him all over the place I think. But they're definitely training him to be a defensive end eventually.

He'll play NT and DE. Payton said he'll primarily be a NT but will be cross trained.

I do think the hope is he'll replace Smith next year. But for this year he'll likely be the primary rotation for Bunkley and Smith. Having Jenkins doesn't change that. Jenkins will likely be in on run downs and against run heavy teams and when we are getting gashed. He's not NFL ready as a 3 down NT.
