Yup, 3 lost cornerbacks have been replaced :thumbsup:
Hand is probably a safety in the NFL.

Man, they just showed highlights for Collin Johnson (UT now a Jaguar)... on two plays he burned Gladney.

Looks like we took a WR from Miami: K.J. Osborn.

Something's gotta be off with Proche.

At least Collin is in the AFC so Gladney do not have to face Collin much

KJ Osborn getting picked means that Proche must have terrible character issues and/or habits.

Looks like he's also a PR:
More surprising was his ability in the punt return game. Osborn stole the return job from another Miami NFL Combine invitee, Jeff Thomas, and never looked back. Osborn averaged 15.9 yards per return for the ‘Canes and 20.1 yards per kick off return in 2019, too. His return skills mixed with soft hands and an intense work ethic give him a leg up on other wide receivers in the draft.

Collin's slow; he won't do anything in the NFL. He's 6' 5" though, so Gladney had his work cut out for him.

So he is Patterson 2.0
