Other than Spain, who I'd see at the other guard spot, I don't see the likes of XSF, Redmond, Johnson, Price/Hopkins, Finney as anything more than back-ups at guard. It may be that Jordan is that as well but I'd like to know that before committing the big bucks or a high draft spot on the position.
He might be the most important not out of contract player on the whole roster to assess as they still seem high on him. The next few games can allow us to firm up where he is and whether he is someone that will be the presumptive starter or just plan B (or C or even cut).
I'm not sure how they don't know at this point what they have in Jordan. He's a guy who started as a freshman at Ohio State yet never got much better. Now he's a guy who started as a rookie and we aren't seeing any improvement in the NFL.
