j johnson is a good depth and special teamer at worst. he's not any worse than all the other bad options at safety... at least he has some upside.

I think it'll be culliver/breeland outside, hall in the slot, amerson on the bench. hall could play FS, but he's so severely undersized that he'd be a durability concern. I don't think putting amerson there solves anything (he's be just as bad at FS as he is as a CB). hopefully we can ditch tracy porter now. he got $2M for playing 2 downs last year, #$@#$@.

trying to trade down to land the only decent safety in the top 2 rounds is a terrible idea btw. you're betting that the staff likes him, he'd fit, and that no one else would take him. it's also like giving yourself tunnel-vision and missing out on potentially better options for the skins future (like an elite pass rusher).

scot's offseason is running a solid A+ in my books (assuming culliver's off field issues don't affect his status with the team). the safe pick in the draft would be an OLB/pass rusher, grabbing j johnson and hoping he's good... and i have no idea where you're going to find a RT or starting safety right now though. we might just be scanning camp cuts for depth and waiting till next year if no one emerges. oh, and we need better QB play, so there's still that.
