Numark3 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 and replaced by younger....possibly better...replacements. Remember...Williams barely played last year Oh I don't disagree. Just pointing that our DB has undergone a lot of change, gutted seems accurate imo

K-9 Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Already beat you to it look at post# 20 on page 1 Great minds! What can I say?
Estro Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 It appears Leonard Johnson does count against us as a FA signed in the compensatory pick formula since he has 4 years of accrued service in the NFL: http://overthecap.com/compensatory-draft-picks-cancellation-chart/ Does anyone know what happens if a player is cut & doesn't make the opening day roster. For example if Johnson was cut prior to week 1, I would hope he wouldn't count as a FA addition since he never made the roster, but I don't know how it works which is why I ask.
Kaenon Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I was a big fan of Leonard Johnson's coming out of college. Went undrafted but became a starting corner in Tampa. In 2014 when Lovie Smith took over and installed the Tampa 2, and Johnson was used in a rotation. That 2014 Bucs team was downright awful. Johnson I think broke his leg preseason the next year and was released or waived. Patriots picked him up which shows they thought he could play. Think he got injured again either that year or the following year when he played for the Panthers. If he can get through not being injured and he can play some zone coverage in McDermott's 4-3, he'll be okay.
John from Riverside Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Oh I don't disagree. Just pointing that our DB has undergone a lot of change, gutted seems accurate imo To me (so far) its gonna relie on a couple of players Darby.....can Darby bounce back and have a year like his first year where we were saying he was outplaying Gilmore and Can Kevon Seymore biuld on season one Micah is gonna be solid....dont know anything about Poyer.....the draft is deep this year......can we pull some Marlon Kerner and Kenny Irvin's out of it?
Eric Moulds on my A** Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 There are quite a few articles online about Corey Washington. 4.5 speed, 6'4.. Unfortunately I also believe this means no Andre Holmes. Hopefully Corey can atleast fill the gap Hunter is leaving in the red zone.
Tcali Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Joe Banyard... isn't he a Seinfeld protégée? Joe Banyard... isn't he a Seinfeld protégée? .....JERRY!!!
Formerly Allan in MD Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Joe Banyard... isn't he a Seinfeld protégée? We had enough comedy the last two seasons.

Agreed. The negative Nancy's out there won't have any of it, but we have some solid players already in the secondary. And anothe refer agent signing and draft pick or two will go a long way. Plus for a non Rex Ryan team, having a good front 7 should really help. After all, the point of investing and building a front 7 is so you don't have to invest as much in the secondary.
BringBackFergy Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 This team is bordering on "Major League" territory...all we need is a Dominican LB who worships Jobu and we're all set.

He's here for TC, imo.

Saxum Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 The NFL officially lists it as this: "Under the rules for compensatory draft selections, a team losing more or better compensatory free agents than it acquires in the previous year is eligible to receive compensatory draft picks. The compensatory picks will be positioned within the third through seventh rounds based on the value of the compensatory free agents lost. Compensatory free agents are determined by a formula based on salary, playing time and postseason honors. The formula was developed by the NFL Management Council. Not every free agent lost or signed by a club is covered by this formula." Well Bills are screwed there,
YoloinOhio Posted March 18, 2017 Author Posted March 18, 2017 Well Bills are screwed there, Its for the guys that left, if that matters
LEBills Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I like the Leonard Johnson signing. I remember he played amazing in college against Michael Crabtree and helped Iowa State upset Texas Tech when they were the second ranked team in the country. Wasn't sure what happened to him, interested to see how he does here.

Wasn't sure what happened to him, interested to see how he does here. I saw in another article where they were talking about him playing Justin Blackmon. Kept him under 100 yds (barely with 99) and no TD. Apparently he's a smart player, lacks speed but it seems like after he gets toasted he does his best to make up for it with a pick or some other spectacular play. Injuries are the reason we have him.
