Ok, that sounds a bit more promising. I misread the "As a pass rusher, Jordan has plenty of room to grow, but few players in this class rush the edge like he does" statement as saying he is ok and that there's not much of a pass rushing class this year.
I still am concerned with the lack of tackling and run support, but a pure pass rushing OLB in a 3-4 can be these things. His coverage skills will make him very valuable in the zone blitz scheme, if that is the scheme we wind up using

I posted somewhere else that besides his pass rushing ability the coverage thing might be key. NFL teams are scurrying to find a way to match up with the athletic big TEs like Graham & Gronk. At 6'6" Jordan might be the prototypical answer to these matchups
Nice wingspan
Unfortunately I think we'll only see his stock rise at the Combine. He could end up going before Jarvis Jones or Mingo.
