Jets Working out Former First-Round Pick Dion Jordan

[JetNation]

Looking to add some more depth to a defensive line that lost Carl Lawson and Vinny Curry in recent weeks, the Jets are working out former first-round draft pick Dion Jordan.  This after trading for defensive end Shaq Lawson yesterday.

The Jets are working out DE Dion Jordan, who played for Robert Saleh in San Francisco last season.

Jordan has spent time with the Dolphins, Seahawks, Raiders and then last season with Robert Saleh in San Francisco.

Salah going to push to bring in some some guys he’s familiar with that are on waivers . Don’t read too much into it . This is what happens .

While none of them are sexy, I'm kind of shocked guys like him and Beasley, Ansah and Sheard, etc.  were brought in as soon as Lawson was injured, at least just to look at them up close.  I know I know I know....REPS!!!  You're not taking reps from anyone on this team at that position.  It's razor thin.

Not to crash the party but did they sign him?  What's the harm in working a player out?

No harm. Just having some fun. Gotta kick rhe tires. The Panthers did however trade for a young DE from the Bills who showed some promise

Right on, like I said above, I was kind of surprised they didnt bring in more similar type of guys to Jordan.

We must really hate our backup edge guys. Zuniga is getting cut. Glad Joe is not trying to give his draft picks an infinite amount of chances. Guys like Zuniga and Morgan should get cut.

I'm with you 100%.  In the failed past regimes, we kept drafted players even when we knew they sucked. If they suck, they need to go, period!

[Larz]

Polite and Zuniga

Hello, yes is this Aaron Maybin?  Yes, Joe Douglas here....

Not a positive indicator on how your career went when you were selected 8 drafts ago and they are still referring to you as "former first rounder."  

[bla bla bla]

No stone left unturned. Worth a look, would rather Vernon.

Also hope we pickup a plater at SSLB since Sherwood may take some time to get up to speed and be able to make tackles.

Remember when we brought in Andre Wadsworth

Olivier Vernon?  Is he ready?  Didn't he rupture his Achilles week 17?  People are worried about Lawson coming back.  I don't think Vernon is going to be ready to even work out for months.

Wow. What a sad and checkered nfl record. Multiple drug suspensions. Maybe he’s turned a corner?

[Jetlife33]

Was super high on him coming out, L for me.

I was too actually.  I take it as a nod toward their desire to bring up the ypung guys, but I still thought there should be a bit more "kicking of the tires"  out there.

He’s the 4th best QB on our team. He’s gone. He’ll be on our PS though. I doubt anyone tries to pick him up.

Weird. Didn’t know they held tryouts for assistant position coaches.
