Welcome Kris Jenkins

He might get ya 2-4 sacks a season, but his best attributes will be run defense, effort, and attitude.


It's unfortunate, as I really wanted to see a true UT selected along with a NT. Bengals got the true NT in Jackson, IMO.
I probably would have gone with Michael Hall instead of Jenkins at that pick, as Hall offers more pass rush upside, but I know the Bengals need good run defense against the AFC North, so I get it.

That's actually a really good comparison. Hubbard is a player that you'll always appreciate having on your team, but you won't necessarily be excited about the idea of drafting someone like him. He isn't flashy, but gets the job done against the run etc.

And I agree. I wish we could have gotten a true pass rusher to pair with a NT. Michael Hall was also my preference, especially since he aligns really well with the rest of the draft class's ideology of high risk, high reward players. He was fairly inexperienced relative to his peers, just 714 career snaps, he's young (turns 21 in June), but he has exciting traits and upside, plus some production in his limited time playing as well (15% pass rush win rate, tied for 3rd best in the class behind Murphy and, oddly enough, Leonard Taylor).

In a lot of ways, he's the IDL version of Amarius Mims haha.

Maybe they knew they were planning on taking Burton and All later in the draft and decided they needed at least 1 "safe" pick?
