OverviewA very bright and quick linebacker who has played everywhere but MLB and if Greg Jones departs that may change. Gordon started 8 games at SLB and 3 at WLB. He likely is a 'Will' backer at the next level. His best football is still ahead of him finished the year second on the team in tackles at 79, third in tackles for loss 7.5, 39 and fourth in sacks 3.5 also had 1 hurry, a pass break up and forced a fumble.
StrengthsInstinctive and runs as well as or better than most strong safties, is a hard hitter for his size and is improving in coverage.
WeaknessesSmallish and does not seem to have a frame suited to getting much bigger, though he moves well in space is not quite as smooth in coverage as you'd like in a player who may likely be a 'Nickel' linebacker at the next level.
ProjectionWith a strong senior year Gordon will be draft-worthy, the question of where will bw based on how much size he can carrt well and how he looks in post-season workouts.
