Charles Johnson moving to Right Defensive End

David Newton talks about a possible switch from the left defensive end spot to the right in the article below. Newton says that Charles has lost a step and that it makes sense to move him to the right side so he can go up against a less athletic RIGHT tackle. He believes this can help replace Hardy's production from the quarterback's blind side.

Unfortunately, Newton's logic is flawed since moving Johnson to the right means he is going up against a more athletic LEFT tackle! He clearly does not understand that attacking the blind side means you are going up against a left tackle.

Not a good thing, he's better on the left as he's been there pretty much his whole career. And idk if CJ lost a step, he lost all his damn weight and his strength. At least last year he did, don't know about how he's looking so far

Yeah hopefully if he's back to 100% he can be disruptive on that side. Maybe they think ealy and Alexander are better suited against the RTs and CJ can be crafty enough against the LTs. CJ and Addison against the LTs and Ealy/Alexander against RTs.

      Moton Meets the Press

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
