OT - Chiefs Release Derrick Johnson

[CISGS]

An old, slow, liability in pass coverage LB..........print the jersey...BB never passes on this skill set

Who knows, maybe he’ll play 98% of our defensive snaps next year and get sat in Super Bowl LIII.

Multiple?

Are we still talking about Derrick Johnson?

He tore an Achilles twice. So I think he was talking about Derrick Johnson.

Derrick Johnson has expended his nine lives?

He needs C_T L_k_ Qu__kn__s

 

[RobertWeathers]

No more old guys. The D needs youth, speed and bad-ass playmaking

I just read that in an article. It said he had multiple achilles tears.

 

[Kontradiction]

Nah, I’m good. While he could still probably beat Jordan Richards in a foot race, this team needs some speed in the front seven.

Thanks.

I knew about the one in 2014, but I totally missed that he had another in December 2016. Kinda makes his 2017 production that much more remarkable, really.

No more geriatrics or Jordan Richards on defense that waste valuable roster spots.

It's the off-season. The Pats have 90 roster spots to fill and 26 of them are currently open. Considering the current state of the LB corps, it couldn't hurt to have him around for summer and Camp (if he's cheap enough), and hope like hell that someone beats him out for a spot on the final 53-man.

Respect what you are saying.....but. Depth and leadership have value. He is still in shape. Has to be an upgrade on Harris. Has to be an upgrade on Eldon Roberts (perhaps a teacher for that young man). Bettr in passD , by the way than any of our present LB core.
