He can tackle too. Now we got Tre, Taron, Vontae, Siran, Micah and Jordan roaming around in our secondary and all of them know how to hit, very scary if you're a receiver or a running back. 2

Not sure though, maybe somebody can google it. 1

Who the heck had this kid on their radar? I am done trying to predict these things. I have no idea. I learned not to bother. Doesn't help I don't watch CFB. Have no problem with DBs they are hands down are strongest unit. Fielding a team with a dominant unit between o line, skill players, front 7 or DBs is a game changer. Just beefing up one unit like that wins games.. like it did last year. Dallas has the line, philly the front 7, Steelers the skill positions, and bills and jags get by with dominant secondaries. Limit the turnovers and let your strengths win the game. Don't spread the money around for half baked units JMO, those are the Juaron bills in a nutshell. Edited April 29, 2018 by PetermanThrew5Picks

FeelingOnYouboty Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 Don't know too much about this kid but looks intriguing. Hope he can partner Tre White for the long haul.

Plus, as he noted, Johnson doesn't have the length to play outside CB in McD's scheme, IMO. So, he can man the corner in conjunction with Phillip Gaines and then next year Bills take an outside CB maybe or if one comes via FA, they'll have a ton of Cap space.

I don't know of course, but this kid strikes me as a nickel/slot guy who might be versatile enough to swing outside when needed, not the long term replacement for Davis, who is on a one year deal. They could strike lightening, you never know. I expect they will be looking to draft a corner high (first 2/3 rounds at least) in next years draft for the other starting outside spot long term.
FeelingOnYouboty Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) We should always trust McDermott when it comes to DB's. Being compared to Brandon Flowers can never be a bad thing. Edited April 30, 2018 by FeelingOnYouboty 1

Both the DB's that this analyst/evaluator thought that helped themselves the most and impressed throughout the Senior bowl practices/game were the mid round guys we drafted. Good to see. I'm hopeful

Gaines 2017: 1 - 4 / 30.4 ppg allowed Not sure if the correlation is related directly to Gaines playing in those games, but he definitely seemed to be a factor in the defenses performance. Taron Johnson has a similar skill set to Gaines and hopefully he can have a similar impact on this defense. Hmmm, or we could have just resigned EJ Gaines

I wouldnt worry about that The bills love Davis....I fully expect that to be a longer term partership to match with Tre.

Being compared to Brandon Flowers can never be a bad thing. So much this. I will never, ever question McDermott about his selections at CB, S, or LB. I just won't. The man knows what he is doing. Now, over on the OFFENSIVE side of the ball? Like, say, at wide receiver?......that's a whole other ball of wax. 2
Happy Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 5 hours ago, DrDare said: Hmmm, or we could have just resigned EJ Gaines Availability was a big problem with EJ Gaines, so that was probably the factor for not re-signing him.. When he played, he was good. But durability matters; if he's not available, doesn't matter how good the player is.
