    If CJ would restructure I woulnd't be opposed to him sticking around and perhaps w/ Whiz his role would change some and he would become more productive... ahh who am I kidding, the dude believes he is living back in 2008-2009 and that he is worth every penny of that 8 mil. I still think he can be effective given the right role, but as an every down back, no way... Unless Whiz can magically undo the voodoo SUCK that Munch/Matthews inflicted on our Oline the last 3 years, which isn't likely to happen. See ya CJ...

    The only way CJ is ever a good player again is if you hold a check in his face all year.

    When he's chasing the money, he's damn scary to play against.

    I'm still waiting to hear about this mysterious role that he can be more effective in.

    Yup agreed. It'll be very interesting to see what happens when he is cut, whether some idiot like Jery Jones or maybe Irsay go after him (I could see the latter happening), but my guess is no one is stupid enough (other than perhaps Jones) to take on that cap # if we waive him. If not I wonder what kind of realistic signing bonus and incentive laden contract he will be working for then ?

    If Im a GM and I see Chris Johnson is a free agent, I'd offer him $4M/yr for 3 yrs

    Once he has that chip on his shoulder again, I believe he'll put in serious work.

    I could see him play a Darren Sproles, Reggie Bush, Ladanian Tomlinson role perhaps in the right system. Could we install a system like that here though now that Whiz is the boss ? Don't see why we couldn't, however, @ 8 mil he just isn't worth it if that is the role he were to play. The other major issue though is his hands, I think the dude can catch if he really wants to, but most time his lackadaisical effort seems to effect him whenever he is actually looking for the ball to be thrown to him (as opposed to the 2-3 fluke plays this year where he ended up making the biggest plays of the season like the 49ers game, and Chiefs games).
