Yes. If it makes the team better, then you do it. If you don't like the money invested in the DLine, then purge some of that salary. I'd start with Travis Johnson.

The beginning I don't pay much attention to because of the level of competition, but later on in this clip it's amazing. It's enlightening to hear the announcers of the game talk about the "99 rule" and how they can't stop him. The thought of 99 on one side and 90 on the other makes me smile.

Michael Johnson? He has all the potential that Mario did coming out, but will he up his motivation, and play every down? I say he will. So I would keep an eye on him in this Draft.

I would love to have Michael Johnson. One positive about bringing him here is he would only be needed as a situational guy to start, but would still make an early impact as Kubiak stated our high picks needed to. He does not have to be "the man", and he can learn some good work habits from Mario. If he could live up to his potential along side Mario and Amobi gets it going.....

I mentioned this is in another thread, but the following lineup could be very legit on passing downs:

Williams Smith Okoye Johnson



I feel like we have plugged enough holes, and have enough depth in this draft that we could take a bit of a risk/reward stance on our 1st round pick.

Me too, except I am hoping that Everette Brown is that guy who slips to #15.

McShay on his 7 rounder has Johnson slipping all the way to 27 in the second to the Carolina Panthers.
