serviceable and experienced..will bring a level of physicality to the secondary tho

Not a Ciante Evan's but could be worse...and most likely Walters is still holding money back for possible return of a Rose..Sayles this fall, so hence his comments that they have pretty much used up most of what they allotted for free agency...and I am fine with that as we re-upped our own guys, all of whom would have commanded a lot of interest on the open market

I also think Evan's will try and do a double dip with xfl..then cfl too

Was really good all year except two games he was lined up against Shaq Evans

Wasn’t a huge fan of Johnson until we just signed him and now it’s easy to see how he was the most underrated DB in the league last year to be honest

and who knows if that was all on him...or secondary mix-ups...regardless we have the best DB coach in the league (younger) as well as the best DC in league when dealing with his secondary players..

Mighty expensive pass rush in HAM.

Can win games with a solid one though.

Just leave all the after the whistle **** in Edmonton.

Please.

Nice thing about Josh Johnson is he's an experienced defensive halfback.  Im sold one Mike Jones as one of the corners and we can have a competition needing to find a safety or a corner. If we find a good safety Alexander can move back to corner.

It starts...

 

 

 

(And it's already over. Good night.)

you need experienced HB....as it is a total unknown position to rookie Americans it's the last place you want to have a rookie learning on the fly on your defense...plus he is tough...

Taylor and Johnson at HB possibly.

as it stands now that's what I would think..Jones on the field corner...and if we start a rookie db it will be at boundary...though i could see Lyles getting a long look there..and does have experience

I’m confident that our scouting will be able to find another gem in the secondary but having a guy with experience like Johnson come in definitely doesn’t hurt. Not an area of concern to me.

Boyton or whatever his name is, as well. And Rios too.

Listening to Marshall Ferguson FA special on TSN radio in Hamilton. Someone told him that played in Toronto last year that Derel Walker despised Toronto traffic and it might affect his decision. lol

Rios is gone..Boynton too may grab a corner spot...

Old enough to remember when Franklin was part of The Plan. 

Official

When a player is unhappy off field annoyances get really really annoying

Definitely doesn't help.
