My guess is that that they still like Jordan at LG. He does have the physical tools you look for and a year in a pro S&C program should help him.
Everything you read on the official page points to LG being MJ's job to lose. I think he'd have to get hurt or just completely shit the bed not to be the guy. They like his length and ability to learn relatively quickly. Also, it's cliche to point this out, but I'm sure it doesn't hurt him to be a Cincinnati native and lifelong Bengal fan.
He had some awful games and looked lost at times, but was stronger when he came back from being benched. IIRC, Boling had trouble when Wharton went down in the preseason and made him the starting LG for the next 8 seasons. Hopefully Jordan has a similar trajectory.
