These guys can make or break a draft. The hits can erase a bad miss in rounds 1 or 2. Jordan's versatility is also important. It is a huge plus to have a back up or starter who can play all 3 OL positions in a pinch.
I like his pro style body with a lot of room to grow. I think with patience, he will be a very good OL in next 3 years.
I have to agree with Sunset in that he did not slide but actually went in the area that most were projecting him to go.
Now I do feel he had the potential to go higher and I believe he would have had he played for another program because as I stated before he would more than likely have played an OT position at another program with his size, length, strength, and movement combination. At any rate I am thankful the Bengals got him and I do believe he develops into a very good lineman.
