The veteran free agent also visited the Cincinnati Bengals this week. Jordan has offers from the Eagles to potentially return. He has also been asked to visit other NFL teams. In six NFL seasons, the former James Madison standout has recorded 262 tackles, one sack, two interceptions, two forced fumbles and seven pass deflections. He started seven games last season for the Eagles, playing in 14, and had 44 tackles and two forced fumbles. Jordan, 27, is a 6-foot-1, 230-pounder from Harrisonburg, Va.

Very nice! Getting guys like Zambo, Diles and Jordan will give our LB crew the definite quality depth it was lacking. Heck we barely had any on roster up until this past week. Would still guess we are drafting the likely starting SILB.

Akeem Jordan is an okay player. He's not terrible, but he's not much above mediocre. He'll be a solid depth guy that can play special teams. He doesn't really stand out in any aspect of the game. He's been with the Eagles for some time, so Reid is probably comfortable with him.

Actually, after looking over some info on Jordan, he's strictly depth. My buddy said good in coverage but terrible tackler.
Still have to find that thumper in the draft. They did work out Larry Grant, who I thought did a nice job filling in for Willis in 2011, but didn't sign him.

So they're leaning towards LB then?

I still do think Jordan has a real shot to be the #1 pick.

I can see akeem being DJ's backup at WILB battling greenwood. Jordan could be the nickel backer too. yeah they need a starter at SILB likely via the draft. Diles is good depth there just not a starter

He'd answer that question at ILB. Fairly young guy at 28 who was a productive stand-in for Willis.

Unless we take Dion Jordan at 1.1 and play him some at SILB, I would expect us to take one in the 3rd round. Guys like Jon Bostic, Kiko Alonso, Nico Johnson, Kevin Reddick, etc. will be good options there.

If we draft anywhere 1-4 that's the guy I want, but this is the first I think anyone has heard playing him at ILB. Does he really fit for that? 6'6" 240?
