Professional career

edit

Pre-draft

edit

On January 29, 2011, Jordan played in the 2011 Senior Bowl and was part of Marvin Lewis's North team that lost 24–10 to the South.[7] His overall performance during Senior Bowl practice helped his draft stock and made him a definitive first round pick in the upcoming draft.[8] Jordan attended the NFL Scouting Combine and performed all of the combine and positional drills.

"He gives you a lot of scheme versatility. He had a great year, a great Senior Bowl and a great combine. If Cameron Jordan went in the top 10, nobody would rip that pick based on the way he played and how he performed at the two key venues."[9]

Mel Kiper Jr.

On March 9, 2011, he participated at California's pro day, but opted to stand on his combine numbers and only performed defensive end drills. At the conclusion of the pre-draft process, Jordan was projected to be a first round pick by NFL draft experts and scouts. He was ranked as the second best defensive end prospect in the draft by DraftScout.com and Sports Illustrated and was ranked the third best defensive end in the draft by NFL analysts Gil Brandt and Brian Billick.[10][11][12]
