Johnson was a decent corner, good press corner in oakland played along side Nmadi for while actually thought he played harder than nmandi, seen a lot of afc west games living out in denver. he's pretty big corner too, at 33 don't know how speed he's got left.

Guess we'll be seeing a lot more of Chykie and Corey Graham this week, hope the pass rush picks up.

I don't really know, but the thought of McKinnie's million dollar savings being put to good use came to me as I was reading this thread.

Someone mentioned in another thread to give props to Oz for the depth on the roster especially with the injuries on D.
I thought about adding there that Oz probably has a list of 2 or 3 deep fallback options in case something happens... and then come back and read this. He has the team prepped as best as possible and Willie Anderson's up his sleeve when needed.

Danny Gorrer is with TB and has no stats yet this year, that is who I first would have thought of, but the FO list is a lot more thorough and complete. No real clue as to what Chris Johnson brings to the table, but welcome to purple (not silver) and black.

He really stinks. I know that much for sure.
I think he's out because he is clearly a liability and needs a lot more time on the PS.
CJ was pretty good, don't know if he still wants to play though after all the tragedy he's gone through. Or what kind of condition he is in after sitting home all season.

What's going on with Jimmy Smith?

That would be deliciously different! Actually saw a little pressing from Chykie and Corey Graham vs. Oakland. IMO the latter has proven a valuable signing as things have played out thus far
