MrEpsYtown Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Johnson should move to safety. Very good tackling, excellent ball skills, good size. Would be a nice depth upgrade if he made that switch. Perhaps he’d fare better as a zone corner here, but i think a safety switch would revitalize his career. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt they do change things this week. He was a rookie in his first game and had one make called a miss. I don’t imagine that does great things for the psyche. He did come back and hit two though, so hopefully it’s just jitters on the second miss and I imagine that’s what the FO thinks as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he basically is a starter at the slot CB. I think his small space quickness and toughness on slot receiver types is more valuable there. Maybe later in his career he could slide to safety.

IgotBILLStopay Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Wonderful news. He is excellent in zone coverage schemes (perfect scheme fit for Bills) - Greg Williams’ exotic packages put him in man often and he was a fish out of water. i think he can do well with the Bills - and we can get him for cheap after Greggo destroyed his value. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 30 and having been a street free agent awhile now, since March, I think he is at that point already. He has to reinvent himself if his career is going to continue, imo. I feel like we are good in the slot and I think Johnson could be an all pro again at safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought the kickers they worked out last week were all no names. Thought more of a Covid protection. The coaches saw many more kicks by both Haush and Bass than anyone in the media ever did. I'd imagine the competition may not have even been nearly as close as the media made it out be be based on the kicks they saw, may have been why they released Hausch as early as they did. Having said that my guess is Bass has a much longer rope with this coaching staff than fans will give him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 A common misconception on Johnson is that he was a poor fit with Greggo...but in Trumaine’s best years with the Rams his defensive coordinator was Gregg Williams. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsCuse Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 They are actually bringing in 5 or 6 DBs. Norman's injury must be worse than originally thought or they dont like their depth. Or maybe both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I know he was a good player at one point in his career but he was God awful the last few years with the Jets and that's being kind. Nobody has bothered bringing him in, even at the vet minimum. We already have one reclamation project in Norman and that's not going well. I'd pass but I defer to McBeane and Co. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This completely makes sense and it might be what Beane is thinking because Tauron Johnson really struggled on Sunday. Crowder was open quit a bit and you can argue that he should’ve covered him better on the long TD pass before the big missed tackle. Also with Johnson’s injury history having a good slot CB ready on the PS (if he will accept) might be a smart move. I just wonder how much he has left because there probably is a reason why he’s still on the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To think Norman was going to be something special would have been narrow minded from McFrazier. Bring up Cam is just awesome. might have been the thought process all along ??
