Where does the fault lie...Jordan himself or the coaches?

Jordan is a project... When we drafted him, it was evident because of his shoulder injury and lack of bulk/muscle... He needs to bulk up a bit, and the surgery has prevented that... Jordan is the future, not the present... He wasn't drafted to be the present... Seeing Jordan covering Gronk deep down field last week, shows what type of athlete/player he can eventually be... He can also get to the pass rusher and speed rush, we have seen that....He just isn't ready yet to be a pro bowler.. Our team pride itself on stopping the run, right now Jordan would be a liability for doing that... So it is what it is... Lets look at Jordan by year 3 and decided whether or not he is going to be a bust... Right now he is a project not an invisible bust IMO...

Can't blame the player for being drafted too high, but you can for not performing

You don't draft a project that high

I said the same thing about Tannehill... So I understand your position.. When drafting a project there is a lot of unknown in the development process, that you are essentially taking a risk on... But the reward possibilities on Jordan are through the roof, which is why he was drafted so high...

DJ is a guy with freakish monster specs..huge, big, quick and fast. I think he was drafted mostly due to his potential rather than current talent. It's up to both him and his future coaches to get him to that ceiling he is capable of. If he gets there, watch out..he will be feared for a long time in the NFL.

It's way too soon to call him a "bust". Would be like saying an infant of two PhD parents will never get their own PhD.

As crowder says needs to bulk up for the NFL. Just frustrated we could have drafted OL help and see what some teams get with undrafted players

We specilize in drafting projects...

ready for prime time is NOT our MO.

Holy shit. If you guys aren't complaining about something you're just not happy.

Has anyone complained about the long snapper yet? if not I guess I'll go ahead and start a thread about the piss poor coaching of the long snapper.

anyone saying we could've drafted OL at 3, the only OL who supposedly merited that pick was lane johnson (another project as we was a QB like 2 years ago) and by all accounts he has been horrible. probably should've stayed put at 12 and kept our 2 second rounders and addressed OL with one of those (or even after a trade down). oh well, hindsight---and I haven't given up on Jordan, we just need to play him
