Greg Olsen TE, the U

Re: Johnson

why don't people here like Eric Johnson from 49ers as a FA TE?

Yes, last year he was injured, but prior to that had 80 some catches in one year!!!!!

I'm on the Johnson band-wagon. The health thing is a non-issue for me. This is the guy we need. He'll open up the middle.

I'm fine with Johnson; but he's not a speedster either.

He's always hurt; that's why the bandwagon isn't too long. Guys' just always injured.

Johnson is a waste of time. He is virtually guaranteed to be hurt. It's not 'is he going to get hurt', it's 'when will he get hurt'.

D. Martin not playing 16 games (for the Pack, or wherever he lands) is a guarantee.

Yeah, if you want a talented, injury prone TE, just re-sign D Martin.

Why is everybody so hyped up about Daniel Graham? What has he done to convince anyone that's just a servicable TE? I think Bubba is just as good, which isn't very. There's a reason the Patriots kept looking for a TE and a reason he's likely to be available. He's not explosive and the only place he's good is in the red zone. The only explosive TE available is the one most of you don't want - Jerramy Stevens. He drops balls and he's a headcase but he can open up the field.

I don't think EJ, DG, or JS would be good free agents pick-ups unless they were cheap nor would they likely upgrade the position much. They may give us another option but they aren't going to scare an opposing defense.
