KC probably shouldn't release him.

Well based upon Johnsons play and after winning the Butkus and Nagurski taking him when he fell to the Chiefs was a no brainer.

No doubt. I couldn't believe that he fell to us on draft day.

Thomas Howard who was a 2nd round pick...

Howard has made more plays than DJ though.

In pass coverage. The guy didn't have nearly as many tackles for loss as DJ, and he had one sack.

I doubt he gets six picks every year, either.

it's do or die time for Derrick Johnson, no doubt about that

Why? Rogers hasn't done shit. The one time he comes in for Favre, he breaks his foot. At least Brodie made it through an entire half before getting broken, and you think he is aweful. Come on now.

I'm sure Raider fans would tell you differently.

Anyway, I really hate the lack of respect for DJ around here. He's a good player. He's not a great player. But people act like he's a disappointment. He's not.

It's because of the value placed on that position, if you take a devalued position really high he has to be above the general player.

If you take a Guard in the first round he has to be Steve Hutchinson for the pick to be worth it.

Again, what's really high? He wasn't taken in the Top 5, he wasn't taken at 15, with the perception being that he fell farther than he should have.
