will you give a late round for him ? he was never used properly in miami

i would think about it (a 5th rd )

 

def. a 4th or later pick. he is still a beast physically and hopefully we can get him to succeed here

 

For a 5th or later, yes.

 

Maybe? Idk... I guess if he was available in the draft in the 5th or later, he'd be BPA right? I doubt we do, but it would be an interesting idea.

Do you know how much it would be in dead money if we traded a late rounder for him, then cut him? That has to be a factor in the discussion. His cap charge is probably fairly high if he makes the squad too.

 

Generally if a player is traded, the team trading him that gave him X amount of guaranteed money (that they have technically already paid him) still takes the cap hit. The team getting the player just has to pay whatever his base salary is...which means if he's cut then no dead money.

 

If it was for something like a 5th or later i might consider it. Not sure how much his salary/cap hit would be though...being such a high draft pick and all. Also the biggest issue I see...is he has been suspended twice already (according to that article)...not sure what for...but that part there would worry me the most.

 

his fifth year option is 11 milion but i think if is traded the team that will acquire him would rework his contract

7/20/2013: Signed a four-year, $20.572 million contract. The deal is fully guaranteed, including a $13.341 million signing bonus. 2015: $585,000 (+ $1.69 million roster bonus), 2016: $675,000 (+ $2.535 million roster bonus), 2017: Club Option, 2018: Free Agent

 

Cool. Thanks for clearing that up.

 

So essentially if we traded for him and he makes the squad, we'd be on the hook for about 2.3mil in '15, and 3.2 in '16. Not a bad cap hit if he turns out to be at least a good situational rusher in rotation... Won't make those roster bonuses if he's cut, so that's nice too. Who knows, might be worth a try. I doubt we even consider it tho.

side note: anyone remember Gruden's face when Jordan was picked 3rd overall? Haha it was priceless. Dion Jordan? Really? Lol

 

And BAM Jordan suspended for the full 2015 season!

And now he's available for bar mitzvahs.

 

Hahahahahahah joke. See ya football career.
