    Sent a very desperate email to Landon Johnson

    I wrote "Please talk to buffalo. We need you alot. You would realy help improve our team and we would love for you to be here. I got to this site because one of the guys on our site gave it to us. Please just think about it. Crowell, Pos, and Johnson would be a great LB core."


    I realy want him to come here. He reminds me of a Crowell and Fletcher type player.

    Re: Sent a very desperate email to Landon Johnson

    This is an opinion I read of him

    Landon Johnson has recorded an average of 111 tackles the past two seasons. But that's not a good thing in this instance - his numbers are not indicative of how mediocre he is. Some team is going to throw a lot of money at him and consequently end up with a bust signing.

    The Bengals, despite being particularly bad and needy at Linebacker, apparently gave Johnson such a low offer, he called it insulting.

    You want to bring in a player at a position, where his current team are desperately weak but refuse to give him any sort of decent offer?

    Interesting.

        And you think bringing in Lions chief underachiever Boss Bailey or Ted Lehman, because Jauron is familar with them, is a better answer?

          Not if he's an underachieving bust .......

          If the Bengals won't resign him, I wouldn't touch him with a 100ft pole. You don't sign a linebacker from a team that needs linebackers but won't resign its own.

              Out of all the LBs in FA. Hes probably 4th.

              1. Briggs
              2. Bailey
              3. Mitchell
              4. Johnson.

                The Lions are trying to keep their LBs

                Not heard the Bengals doing the same.

                Bailey has underachieved, but when he has been fit Lehman has overachieved. He has had foot injuries but he's now back to full fitness.

                    They do but they did a deal with Briggs saying they wouldn't franchise him again.

                    They would struggle to get him under the cap.

                    He has not been made an offer so low he called it insulting as Johnson did.

                          A big reason the Bengals were desperate for LB's was not just a suspension to Odell Thurman, but injuries as well. Ahmad Brooks, and Eric Henderson who the team is very high on, will be returning from IR. They are going to count on Brooks to man the middle, Henderson and Dhani Jones to take the outside. Perhaps they fear that Johnson, who is solid but not a superstar, would become a very expensive back-up.
                          Cincinnati's DT situation is worse than ours. That left Johnson at MLB... all 232 lbs of him...trying to sift through linemen who were constantly in his face.
                          He's worth a look if nothing else. He is definately an OLB, but shifted inside due to injuries and that schlub Anthony Schlegel.

                            It also ocurred to me that they may have low-balled in hopes that other teams might balk at offering him a big contract.

                              I would take Boley or Hobson over L.Johnson and Boley, who won't turn 26 until August, over everyone else on the list other than Briggs.

                              Boley's 2007 stat line:

                              16 starts, 93 solo tackles, 16 assisted tackles, 3 sacks, 4 forced fumbles, 2 INTs (12 yards returned), 7 passes defensed

                              In only 13 starts in 2006 (his second year), he had 67 solos, 18 assists, 3 sacks, 2 INTs (44 yards returned), 4 passes defensed (no stats available on forced fumbles)
                              Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.
