For the most part the DT group had only 1 practice together so I can forgive some of it. That said some of the plays they blew are Football 101 stuff so it makes it less likely a lot of these guys make the final roster. Jenkins they will be going over the film with to identify what he was doing wrong - which was mystifying because he was not a slouch in college (one of the best run defender in collegiate football and considered the best run defender in the draft). I expect to see a much better outing from him next week.
I'll be curious to see the breakdowns of this game. Specifically the Dline and Jenkins. I don't think it was all bad for him but we are gonna be counting on significant snaps from him this year. The thing that concerns me with him is he wasn't asked to play alot of snaps at Michigan. Out of his control but we haven't seen that. I'm really hoping we bring in someone significant to give us the ability to ease these guys in slowly.
