Agree, see above.

I was meaning more that he might just be ok out of the gate and may not really grow much beyond what he is now.
He showed pass rush ability but wasn't exactly a menace.
He had 9 sacks in 58 games.

I'd want someone taken earlier with maybe more of a Pro Bowl promise who can start with him as a rotational depth piece.

If Bengals really think Jenkins will succeed long-term at 3T, maybe Alexander rotate with him and take someone like Kenneth Grant to start at 1T with McKinnley Jackson to back him up.

Or get Walter Nolen in Rd 1 and Darius Alexander in Rd 4 to cover 3T while Jenkins and Jackson rotate at the other spot.
