The only way I could see anyone having the opinion of Jordan being "pretty terrible at Center", is if they were only looking at a couple of early season miscues, and not at his entire season of work.
Now, I am in NO WAY suggesting or lobbying for Jordan to play Center for the Bengals, as I think he's much more valuable at Guard. However, I do like that he's got a season of solid experience under his belt at Center, should the need ever arise for him to have to fill in.
Jordan slid to the 4th round for a reason. He is a lot like Wren, talented enough to be a solid to very good NFL starter, but raw. 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 am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
