Trading for CJ Henderson was a mistake.

This was a thread about how we got fleeced and CJ was never seeing the field. Give credit where credit is due. CJ is getting healthy and seeing more playing time. The outcome of this trade is still very much up in the air. We got screwed on the Sam trade, hopefully this one will turn out differently. 

I decent game doesn’t change anything, he did play good today, but at the same time he has been on the team how long? Nice of him to show up today tho

In his defense he has been hurt. I see a bright future with Horn, Taylor, and CJ but maybe I’m just overly optimistic.

This thread was always a garbage take. We traded a 3rd for him.  He wasn't necessarily meant to be a starter right away.  That was said from the beginning. The guy wasn't worth the draft position, but thankfully that's not what we paid for him. 

This thread is really a year too early.

Yep even Rhule said this is for a few years down the road when we acquired him. He had a good amount of playing time tonight which is a plus. Taylor has been playing stellar. He might have been our draft steal…

I’m just gonna go ahead and mark this trade under FAILURE. It was a total knee jerk move to replace Jaycee Horn and it has failed. 

CJ Henderson has barely seen the field and has been a healthy scratch on game days. Rumor has it he doesn’t care about football. When are we going to see this guy play? Next year? Never?

Meanwhile, Dan Arnold continues to improve on the Jaguars and had started developing a nice rapport with Sam Darnold. Also giving away a 3rd round pick stings even more. 

Keith Taylor is a rookie quickly ascending into starting caliber corner. AJ Bouye came back from his suspension and has played average. Rashaan Melvin has played similarly. And lest we forget they traded for Stephon Gilmore too. Henderson doesn’t fit in the CB room now.

I’d rather have that 3rd round pick and Dan Arnold right now. Side note I wish this team would throw resources at the offensive line like they have at cornerbacks 

WOW SOMEONE FINALLY WOKE UP I GOT LAMBASTED FOR THIS

dude it's entirely too early to say this, it's been a few weeks since we traded for him and he was dealing with an injury upon arrival.

Did people forget that he was hurt BEFORE we even traded for him? So dude comes in needing to learn a brand new defensive system, learn the terminology, and still needing to rehab because he's injured. Some people really have unrealistic expectations. This trade was always for the future anyway.

Need to include Hartsfield in the DB group. He was all around the ball today & is looking good at nickel.

Add a ball hawking free safety to this secondary and I think we have potential to be the best in the league.  CJ has potential.  Too early to know if this trade was a mistake.  I agree that 3rd would have been useful for the upcoming draft but... 

This defense could be special.  Missing pieces resigning gilmore and Dante ( if possible) ball hawk free safety and a legit new school elite athlete at MLB.  You know the type of MLB I'm talking bout a Devin Bush, Micah Parsons, etc.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc.

      Crazy stat

      By Manna · Posted

      The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
