Good read on how all 1st round picks did last year. Thought it would be of interest since we have all had a lot to say on Jordan. Many others had a rough season.

3. Dion Jordan, DE, Miami Dolphins

Grade: +0.2

Snaps: 338

Analysis: There were lofty hopes that situational role could see Jordan produce like Aldon Smith back in 2011. Jordan found himself more limited in his appearances to obvious passing situations as the early season form of Olivier Vernon limited his opportunities. He’ll be expected to do a lot more next year.

To expand on Jordan's year. He had 87 snaps on run D with a grade of +1.0. He had 46 snaps in coverage with a grade of +2.0. He had 206 snaps as a pass rusher with 2 sacks, 4 hits, 18 hurries but, a grade of minus 3.3.

Jordan had 16 tackles, 3 assists, and 1 missed tackle.

Looking at the OL position grades, it doesn't look real promising for plugging in a couple of rookies next year and expecting them to be good.

I noticed that as well. The top OL talent did struggle but, a couple of the later 1st rounders played well. We could use a bit of that kind of luck this year.
