Brasky was a player we were going to take at 2.1. Instead, we traded that pick for WLB Travis Houston.
Jordan is a solid player but lacks football smarts and can be ill disciplined at times. He is also a sub-standard run blocker and we like our OL to have the versatility to run and pass block.
On the plus side, he's as strong as an Ox and quick out of his starting position. Manila also pick up a pair of 3rd round picks for next season so will likely have the best end of this deal long term.
We'll see long term. I'm more of a you gotta pass block good guy making Jordan preferable to bill stylistically even if he isn't quite as good. Definitely looks like a win win trade as long as one of the picks pan out.
