More depth at DE is never bad. Was him busting mainly due to substance abuse, or was it lack of football skills?

Oh boy haha

Fowler was at least built like a DE coming out of college. Jordan was like 245 at 6-6

dude went on a PED rampage to bulk up and cost him like 2 yrs of football.

If we can get around 10 snaps a game out of him cool

Hahaha according to who? Currently one dude is signed on the team past 2020 and it's not Jordan.

He was a athlete fist and a football player second coming out of Oregon imo. Suspensions & s**tty coaching stunted any growth he could have had being the 3rd overall prospect.

I'm not holding my breath on Jordan being the replacement for anything. Depth signing at this pt nothing more.

Someone picked off the Garbage Heap. He never showed much, Ziggy was really good but his shelf life expired. Too much baggage with no production. If the Seahawks dropped him that tells the story.

Raw athletic specimen coming out of college, he was 245lbs soaking wet. He clearly knew he had to add weight and got wild with the PEDs and had multiple suspensions. Not sure what he's currently at weight wise?

Honestly the kid really didn't have a chance to grow as a true DE because he was suspended so much early in his career. He needed real coaching as well.

This is probably his best chance at getting top end coaching and be surrounded by a great defense. Not gonna hold my breath with anything though

This is probably exactly why Saleh liked him.

The tweet clip that showed him as a Raider had him lining up inside a few times and that surprised me. I thought he was a pure DE and then saw that he added 30+ pounds since drafted. That's quite a transformation.
