    Brett Johnson Impressing Coaches

    http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/...ie-safety.html

    The Buffalo Bills are excited about undrafted rookie safety Brett Johnson.

    And that's not only because of the 6-foot-1, 195-pounder's physical attributes that includes a 42 1/2 inch vertical leap, a 10-9 broad jump and a 4.43 clocking in the 40-yard dash.

    "When I came in for the minicamp, I was first approached by coach Adrian White," Johnson told the Buffalo News. "And the first thing he said to me was, "Man, you can play. I watched your film. You like to come down and hit people. You caused a lot of havoc back there.'

    I wonder if Nic Harris is going to have any spot on this team...He doesnt fit the 3-4 and theres going to be a log jam at safety...

    I'm actually thinking Nic Harris could be trade bait for the Eagles.

    Yeah, NFP is now doing the whole regurgitation thing.
    Penn State head coach Bill O'Brien has known Kelly for nearly 20 years, dating to their days as young I-AA assistants -- O'Brien at Brown, Kelly at New Hampshire.


    "Chip's one of the brightest coaches I've ever spoken to, and that says a lot, because I've been around a lot of smart coaches," O'Brien said. "If he ends up in the NFL, he'll adapt his system to the type of people he has."

    We won't get into my opinion on NFP and a few of their people but Mike Lombardi who started the site has moved onto the NFLN now.

    Re: Brett Johnson Impressing Coaches

    He seems to have all of Wendling's athleticism, and a little better resume of college experience. Maybe he is a better safety than Wendling, who was exclusively a special teamer.
    I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

    A wise man doesn't waste effort telling the world he's wise. If it's true, it will be self-evident.

    Re: Brett Johnson Impressing Coaches

    I think it's also been said that the draft was very deep at CB and safety, so in certain respects, it shouldn't really come as that much of a surprise. While the bills didn't draft any corners, for example, Nix did actually say that a couple of the UDFA corners they did sign, had draftable grades anyway.

    Our entire team is a bunch of projects that we can only just pray that we got a "steal".

    Keeping this guy is purely for special teams. I think he ends up on the practice squad.
