I think you're right.Jordan is the player that makes the most sense. Problem is he is the best fit for the Chargers as well. I think we will need a small trade up to get him. The only other DEs that fit are Heyward and Wilkerson, who are lesser talents.
We would need to trade up to get him, he's so versatile. The bloodlines, etc.
I wouldn't want to be like the Steelers in 1989 when they had two picks in the first round and ended up blowing it, not trading up to get Andre Rison.

Even today, all these years later, the draft is still an art not a science. As Bill Parcells said recently on the draft tv show, it's players wearing pads and helmets not Tebucky Jones running the forty, that needs to be ultimately looked at.
