He has good instinct to maneuver his way through the line to the ball carrier, and keeps his eyes on the ball. He has sideline to sideline speed, power on impact, and good tackling technique.

IDK Turbo ... being kind of lost in space playing Big 12 ball is one thing but in the NFL? Totally different animal. His negatives is that he "disappeared" against the better competition & is poor in coverage.

I think I'd pass on Jordyn especially with the likes of Mike Nolan gone.

For all of you Wonderlic followers ... Jordyn scored a 10.

Ooof. Yeah, that worries me. I knew there was a reason they didn't have any coverage film.

There's always a guy from our draft team's favorite school. If only we had a second round pick.

Harrison is a dawg all day. 3rd round? Yes please.

I always believe that the meat and potatoes of the draft are primarily found in the middle rounds. Any player with legit talent that comes from "Thee" Ohio State ... I'm sure the Saints are watching and scouting.
