Keep in mind people, we didn't lose Jenkins for the season, just 4 games (Eagles, Packers, Lions, Raiders). We get Orakpo back, and we have an improved secondary. Plus Chris Baker was as good of a pocket pusher as Jenkins was (IMO). We will probably sign a guy as well. Luckily we have depth and luckily Jarvis Jenkins isn't the face of the defense. Hell, he isn't even our 2nd best DLineman. Just means Bowen and Cofield need to step it up for the first 4 games.

On a(nother) positive note, Daryl Tapp who played 4-3 DE for Philly and Seattle has been looking really good according to Orakpo. Tapp has transitioned to 3-4 OLB. And keep in mind that Rob Jackson is also going to be suspended for the first 4 games. Thats a lot of pass rush come week 5.

I really think we should give Richard Seymour a look. Sure, he isn't what he was in NE, but he can still play and I definitely think he can give us 4 very good games at the least. Plus he's a veteran presence with multiple rings.
