Process Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 (edited) Interesting. Johnson has looked good, would much rather have traded or cut Addison, who at this point brings very little to the table. At the end of the day someone had to go, so can't be mad at getting a draft pick out of it.

FilthyBeast Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Interesting, I hope we get a decent pick and/or quality player in return (DB). Sucks to see him go but it was obviously going to be him or Addison as the odd man out here given the depth and between the two he has upside and can presumably get us the most in return for a trade. I still wouldn't rule out cutting/trading Addison though either.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't either, but the reality is he's really a ST standout that has had a grand total of 2 sacks his first two years here. Sure he could end up doing more in an expanded role in Carolina but this team is loaded and outside of ST he was probably going to get even less reps at DE than he did the previous two years had he made the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think theres a trade market for him but would have rather just cut Addison and held onto Bam.

Don't see it as plainly as with, say Lorax, but if that's true, we do know McD loves his veteran locker room leaders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 I think they just weren’t gonna keep 7 DEs no matter what. I’ll echo others in saying I wish Addison were the one to go instead. I wonder who takes Bam’s role on special teams, and whether this means they’ll keep six instead of five linebackers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big C Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 So you take a guy in the 7th, use him as a ST guy mostly for a few years and then flip him for a 6th during his contract year. Not a bad ROI. Beane doesn't have a ton of leverage because everyone knows the line is stacked. 11 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slippery Rubber Mats Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 It hurts to move on from Johnson without seeing him reach his full potential.

Dave_Bills Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Tough to see Darryl go as he brought some unique elements to the team, but this is what successful organizations do. Drafted late 7th round, got two years of production from him, and got a 6th for him. Agree with others that I would have rather cut Addison and kept Bam but overall, I think this is good value Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
