Yup, was my biggest fear going into this season. Only reason I never liked the Jordan pick, I felt we would have been better off staying put or even trading down and taking what was there.
Lane Johnson has practically been no better than Martin/Clabo so far into the season, so Jordan was absolutely the right move. Can you imagine the critics if Ireland drafted Lane Johnson, another top 5 pick at the OT position, and he flamed out like he has done in Philly thus far? Oh boy.
Well if I said trade up and take him your post would make more sense...
I would prefer to have stayed put and develop a guy like Kyle Long, rather than trade up to develop a DE...
And its not a knock on Jordan, since it seems everyone will assume that.. I like him, I expect him to have a great career here..
Just wish they would have addressed this issue, because it was no secret the line needed help, and not the D line...
