Welcome to the top 15 Dion.

230 lbs scared me. He now only needs to add about 10 lbs.

Look for that weight to come back down.

ordan is participating in drills at the NFL Combine, but he unveiled something on Saturday that could make teams think twice about his draft status: he's having surgery in the coming week to repair a torn labrum in his shoulder.

Jordan said that the surgery will force him to rehab over the next several months:

"Give me about 3-4 months as far as my rehab. I’m going to attack my rehab after the surgery as hard as I did before, just to make sure I’m able to show up to camp and compete with all the other guys."

That could put Jordan out for all of March-June, with a return some time in July. He would miss organized team activities and minicamps, but would probably be ready to go for training camp. The surgery is expected to hurt his stock too much, but you never know -- there are quite a few defensive end/outside linebacker types who might be attractive for teams in the first round, and a guy who isn't having surgery might end up going over Jordan.

Really? Wow. I was thinking more like 230. He is 'biggest' slim guy DE in this years draft (lol).

so many players including Jordan need to check out medically.

what i love is all the Alabama OL so far have brought up questions that sport writers saying hurt their ratings. LMAO i am back to what was said in the early part of the year.

Barrett Jones is the man.

That's a pick that would be hard to argue about. What would we do between the draft and the start of preseason then?

Jordan ran a 4.53 at the Combine, thats FAST as hell.
Ansah ran a 4.62 which isn't all to shabby either.

That shoulder issue sounds worrying though.
Hasnt been able to go into the weight room and had the issue over a year.

Apparently Payton is interested in Dion Jordan, just had him on tv with binoculars watching his second 40 dash.

4.64

And Corey Lemonier

2nd 40 = 4.53

lee909 · 02-25-2013, 09:00 AM

Some real athletic talent these days.
Really annoyed we don't have a second rounder.Would have loved
1st Jordan/Ansah, 2nd Hunt

I'd be happy with either Jordan or Ansah in the 1st, as long as the selection is a step in improving the defense I'll be happy
