We need him in camp so the coaches can figure out what, if anything, they have in this guy. I have always thought he should be an outside LB and thought it was stupid to have him gain weight to make him a bloated DE.
I think based on a handful of plays he has a lot of potential at OLB. I still see him covering Gronkowski well in that clip and if that is the ONLY thing he can do it is enough to have him on the team.

 

Good news...Things are still on track.

 

he knows this will be his last shot at redemption. I would play him at LB next to Kiko (they know each other well). this news is a very good thing. hope he's back by training camp.

LOL the guy takes over a year off, then starts working out for 3 months and looks "brand new"? All the evidence we have seen thus far indicates he does not look good. At this point I'm under the assumption that he is mounting this campaign with the hopes of pressuring the team to keep him under a tight timetable.

 

If you want more recent images and videos of Dion go to the "Can't Waste this chance" Dion thread. I posted as many as I could find there yesterday and the day before but I don't have the time to repost them all here.

if he makes the team, ill be surprised.

 

What evidence is that? (Serious question)

 

Am I wrong thinking he'll get his signing bonus if he's not reinstated in the next few days? Could someone clarify? Not with a simple "yes he will" if possible please.

 

How does this "3 month" garbage keep being spewed? The thread on Jordan from back in May, people kept saying "he's only been working out for three months," even though at that point he'd been working or for at least 5 months at Bommarito's. He'd been with someone else previously, I believe. Now we're in July, so it's been at least 7 months of working out, but I still see you throwing out the "3 months" thing.

I get it that you don't seem to like him, but at least be accurate with your dislike.

 

Here's my deal: his speed was an asset. Does he still have it? I think if he does, he could be serviceable.

 

He won't get the bonus if he's not reinstated in time, 15 days from now is when he's due the bonus, the 5th day of TC.

They also have the option of cutting him without having to pay him a cent this year(his signing bonus still counts against the cap though), or a possible reworking of the contract.

 

Very conspicuous timing. Hopefully Miami cuts bait.

 

Videos his trainer has posted; he's looked pretty poor in most of them.

 

He was over 280 lbs. and "depressed" up until he started working out at Empower:

The operative phrase being "get him back into a regimented program", which implies that he was not currently in such a program. The fact that Dion Jordan is 280+ at that point implies he wasn't doing ****.

I really dont care for the guy much. Couldn't keep himself clean, never seemed all that interested in being here, rarely showed up on game day. Honestly I cant figure out why we jumped to the #3 pick to grab this guy. The only saving grace with that is we really did not give up very much to go up and get him. It has never appeared that Ireland and Philbin were on the same page about this guy. It never seemed they knew what to do with him on the field.

Beyond all that now, he is a guy the team, rightly or wrongly, invested in and when he is in shape he is a great athlete. We can really use some help in the linebacker group, if they try to put him on the line I really don't see the point.
We'll see what happens but his reinstatement should be coming any day now.

 

I don't see anything impressive about the way he looks in any picture I've seen of him while he's been suspended. He should be ripped, I mean what the **** else does he have to do? He should be in prison shape right now.

 

Lol at "prison shape", because it's funny, and very true.

 

If he is reinstated, use him and try to trade him for whatever we can get (if we can get anything for him at this point, which might be highly doubtful), because history, percentages, and odds say this dude will be suspended again by the end of the year.

 

How long ago?

Was empower before or after Bommarito?

 

Absolutely poor form and concentration in those bench reps..

 

Guy hates working out it seems.

 

He was over 280 and "depressed" right before he started at Empower, which was around April. That is the place in Arizona he currently is at. I have no idea when he was with Bommarito, but if he was there at all it was prior to him being 280.

 

You basically have to consider him to be an UDFA at this stage; basically giving him like what a 5% chance of having any impact.
