Ice1 Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Very Nice. I am not buying Dion Jordan as a DE. I project him as a OLB in that scheme. Think KIko has stud potential and like him as #2 on this ranking. I have Minter a bit higher but questions remain if he can really be a 3 down player. Brown has gone top 6 in two drafts with balanced scoring systems so far. 1.5 and 1.6 Kiko went 1.13 and 1.14 in those drafts Minter went 1.14 and I got him at 3.9 in the other. Ziggy went 1.4 in one draft and I got him at 1.8 in the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure he probably plays some LB if they flex fronts and stuff like that but they didn't jump up to #3 to get a LB that can cover a TE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice1 Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) I have a hard time seeing Jordan not being designated a DE. Sure he probably plays some LB if they flex fronts and stuff like that but they didn't jump up to #3 to get a LB that can cover a TE Time will tell but this news could be a prelude to come especially given Miami looks to be shifting to a base 3-4 scheme these days. I just don't see them as a 4-3 team any longer. (Rotoworld)Dolphins GM Jeff Ireland said No. 3 overall pick Dion Jordan could end up at linebacker. Analysis: "That's what I like about him," Ireland said. "He's very versatile and he played linebacker [at Oregon] and he also rushed the passer. [When] we get our hands on him, [we will] see where the best place he'll fit. We've got a great vision for him. Part of that's going to be rushing the passer but the other part's up to [coach Joe Philbin]." Jordan will certainly rush the passer plenty, but he's so athletic that he could end up covering tight ends like Rob Gronkowski. (Article Link) I avoided him due to risk in my draft but we are real sticklers for team designations. 3-4 Teams are high risk and we score the positions differently in our league. He went 1.11 and 2.1 in the 14 team team drafts I mentioned earlier. (Risk pushed him down.) He is a significant talent.

FWIW Jordan played almost exclusively with his hand in the dirt in the HOF game. Not exactly proof positive but at least a small measure of relief for dynasty owners that drafted him to play DE.
