I don't disagree with the list, although I think Lombardi likes Jenkins much more than most do. I think Jenkins is solid, but still not sold on calling him a blue chipper. I'd like to see him play a year in this system first.

I distinctly remember our defense going to dog shit after his injury. What Cullen does on the filed doesn't show up in the glamour stats. I'm glad he's back.

I can imagine that the same would've happened if Kampman would've gone down.
That said, Jenkins is a great player. It's pretty amazing how he can get to the QB off the edge, Especially against LTs, with his size and speed. He could just as well play DT (like he did with KGB at RE on passing downs). I'm amazed by his combination of strength athleticism for his body type.
Can't disagree with the rest of the list, either. If he had some more safetys, I recon that Collins would've been on that list as well. Maybe Hope would've come in a 6th, but I imagine that Collins couldn't be much further down than 7th.
