Another Buckeye is off the board with the Cincinnati Bengals selection in the fourth round of former center Michael Jordan. The Bengals traded up with the Cowboys to get the pick, and that usually means a team believes in the value of what a kid can become.
At 6-7, 312 lbs., Jordan is tall for a center, but is probably more appealing as a guard when you turn on the tape. In 2017, he used his size and explosiveness to drive opposing D-lineman off the ball and garner First-Team All Big-Ten honors. He started every game in Columbus from 2016-2018 and made first-team All-American lists and second team All-Big Ten as a senior at the center position.
He’s a versatile guy with size and intangibles to compete for a starting spot in Cincinnati early in his career.
