A question to the Knowledgable-expert-film guru types here: How would you compare JJ as a lb-safety hybrid to Denicos Allen; a similar player on paper but with maybe less speed?

I am a huge fan of denicos allen, I don't know why he isn't getting any spotlight he is a stud and will make a amazing outside linebacker in college. He is already 210 right now at 6+

Either way, go discuss it in the Denicos Allen thread...this thread is about Jelani Jenkins...

If you haven't seen his youtube videos do yourself a favor and do so...best LB film I have seen in only a few short clips. He also has some great FB clips on there as well. Only LB that I've seen hit harder on film is Tray Blackmon. Word is Illinois will be in the mix with Locks' connections but I don't know how much...I do know Jenkins is an animal though...he can be a great FB maybe even RB, a great SS, or a great LB. That speed is ridiculous for somebody who is supposed to project to LB in college. He hawked down Dematha 2008 CB/WR Rodney McLeod (2008 OSU and UI target Kenny Tate's teammate) who was a Illini target but went with UVA...what impressed me most though is his hitting ability. Heads snap back quickly when he hits...
Here's the video for those who haven't seen it:

I'm real impressed, he FLIES around the field and comes up and pounds people.

As good as he looks on offense, it would be a crime not to put him on D. How fast did he look running down that receiver from behind? Wow. Obviously loves to hit as well. Looks like he could play SS or OLB in college.

I'd definitely put him at linebacker. He would/does terrorize an offense.
