Bucs, others pass on USF's Jenkins

Twenty-one picks have come and gone, and former USF cornerback Mike Jenkins hasn't heard his named called. Most glaringly among the teams who have passed on Jenkins is Tampa Bay, which had a chance to draft the hometown cornerback and instead selected Kansas' Aqib Talib, whose stock had dropped because of reports of three positive tests for marijuana.

Jenkins is getting a lot of talk as one of the top players available. How long will he have to wait before his name is called?
