Poll question: What's the best position for Dion Jordan?

The Miami Dolphins received a bonus player on defense this week when former No. 3 overall pick Dion Jordan returned from suspension. Jones missed the first six games of the regular season following dual suspensions for violating the NFL’s policies on performance enhancers and substance abuse.

Jordan has immense physical talent. However, the Dolphins have struggled to find a consistent position for the former 2013 first-round pick.

That brings us to our latest poll question: What is the best position this season for Jordan?

Miami has options with 10 games remaining in the season. Jordan must first round into "football shape." But he’s 24 years old and that shouldn’t take long. Miami (3-3) is eligible to activate Jordan as early as this Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars (1-6).

Should Jordan stay at defensive end? This is his natural position from college and Miami’s coaching staff has been staunchly against moving Jordan. Miami has a wealth of starting and backup defensive ends, which will make it hard for Jordan to work his way up the depth chart.

What about outside linebacker for Jordan? This is an area that’s hurt the Dolphins due to injuries and poor play. Jordan has the athleticism to run and cover tight ends. He just needs some seasoning. Should Jordan take playing time away from Philip Wheeler?

Finally, should Jordan play both positions or on special teams? Using our SportsNation poll, vote on what position Jordan should play this season. You can share your thoughts in the comment section below or send me a message via Twitter @JamesWalkerNFL.
