I get your point, but it means nothing as far Jordan goes.

It just means Fede is playing well, and technically I think your really underrating him now and in college.

Really? You think he got good coaching from a school that has never produced an NFL player in their existence? Fede's tackle in the preseason's first game was the first one recorded by a player from Marist in the history of the NFL...and it wasn't a real game. I guess you can believe what you want but I find it hard to believe that a school that doesn't even have a full time D-line coach on it's coaching staff coached this kid up to be a DE in the NFL making an impact as a rookie.

The league needs to expand the roster size. I'd hate to lose Fede or McCain or Jalil Brown.

I don't know about Jordan, he is a physical freak but he didn't beast in college like Jadaeveon, yet he was picked only 2 picks behind him (different years of course).

Jordan doesn't seem amped or enthused in his interviews, maybe that's just the laid back California guy thing....who knows.

Shoulda stockpiled picks and Herschel Walkered the Texans for Clowney. Jordan is a complete bust so far and to be honest the guy wasn't even top-3-impressive in college.

Say that to yourself a few times. Terence Fede, and raw prospect out of Marist and drafted in the 7th round, is outplaying Dion Jordan. Dion Jordan, drafted in the top 10 last year is being outplayed by a guy who played in the Pioneer league in college. Did anyone here even know their was a pioneer league? I hope this is an aberration, if not...a hearty **** you Jeff Ireland.

Interesting now we can trade Wake and Joradan and play cheap and at the same level with Vernon and Fede.
 
I think it's a little too early to say Dion Jordan is looking like a bust. He's not playing until week 5 so he has time to get it together.
Hickey and Coyle would be wise to take an extensive look at him this season before casting him off as an Ireland-mistake.
I think he gets a lot of playing time in some surprising positions and packages.

I never he said he had the best coaches in the world, but technique is technique no matter who teaches it.

Just watch him, Thats not a guy who looks like he's just learning football if that's what your trying to say. Not even close, the guy is Sharp.
 
I really hope Terrence makes the 53 man roster. i work with his aunt in northern new jersey,she is so proud of him.
He is a really good guy with a nonstop motor. This team needs players like him.
Go fins!!!!!
 
I am outplaying Dion Jordan and I am sitting in front of my computer typing this.
 
It just shows you how much of an inexact science the NFL draft is. You have guys like Ryan Leaf and Jamarcus Russell going at the top of the draft and Tom Brady sliding to the 199th pick. You cannot measure desire and effort. Hope Jordan figures it out.
 
Maybe at some point the Fede bubble may burst, but it is common knowledge that he is excelling at everything. That doesn't mean that Dion Jordan is failing and it was good to see him make a great play on Saturday. However, the guy who scouted Fede is looking pretty damn smart.
 
Jordan just really isn't that good that's why . Besides he had a labrum injury the other year lets ride that excuse some more
 
let me be the 1st to suggest Jordan for Boone. Jordan will not be missed and he can play OLB there

If Jordan fails, it speaks equally of our coaches' inability to bring his talents to the field and develop his unique size and abilities.

The reason many players go to other teams and succeed is because they are put in situations that allow them to succeed.

I'm not impressed with our handling of Jordan. Especially when we take him away from what was working last year and his ability to cover TEs to making him put a hand in the dirt and bulk up for stopping the run.

Dion Jordan's unique gifts should dictate he is allowed to roam freely along the defensive line standing and freelance his blitzing and covering TEs. He should be roaming the DL on every play looking for the weakness and finding the matchup to overload.

Coaches like Steve Spagnuolo salivate for this type of freakish athlete to harass the LOS and scheme outside the box.

Jordan should be creating headaches for OCs. Instead, we are letting him become a headache for our DC.

Blaming the coaches certainly is not completely unfounded. But, at some point you gotta look at the source. D.J comes across like he just doesn't care and actually looks lazy! Interestingly, i was one of those that defended him saying, "There was no way he wasn't working with J.T and working on his technique during the offseason!" So, far it looks like I have a big egg stain on my face and the guy literally sat on his couch eating PEDS.

Sad...I hope they kid turns the corner.
