Expand I’m going to go ahead and trust our scouting department over you, until I know more about your credentials. 1 1
Mojo44 Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 If Johnson becomes a special teams stand out and can fill in as needed from time to time the pic is already worth it. 1

I take Johnson over an inflated "WR" at this point. Lets see what happens.

HappyDays Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 I figured they'd go with special teams players in the 6th and 7th rounds. It's been a big focus the whole offseason. 2

This one just feels a bit like proehl last year. Don’t love it but oh well. Rare to love a guy this late. Expand I'll need oven mitts for your scorching hot take. Remember how badly Andre Roberts torched is last year? And how much this board loves the signing for that alone? 1

RocCityRoller Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 (edited) we all new a DB was coming hard hitter, good instincts and angles, vocal leader of the Miami defense, mentored by Ed Reed Prototype SS Honestly after Poyer/Hyde/Bush the S room is lackluster, all for more challenge and competition there Edited April 27, 2019 by RocCityRoller 1

Expand I take an athlete over a limited guy at a position of strength with existing depth. Whether that a WR or developmental piece elsewhere. If we have Hyde, poyer, neal, Alexander.... this guy will struggle to make the 53 yet alone 45... before we call him a special teamer he has to dress- how many safeties are you giving jerseys to on Sunday?
HarryLime Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 So if he makes the team and we have 3 Johnson's in the secondary, we can call our dime package a Bunch of *****. I'll see myself out. 1

Expand Meh, would rather just flip the 6th for a 5th next year if the guy just isn’t gonna make the cut (which I don’t think this guy will, barring injury). Cutting picks is a complete waste.
