Actually, that's the genius of team president Polian and this franchise. When they make mistakes -- like Taylor, like Ugoh -- they don't complicate those errors by force-feeding those players onto the roster or into the starting lineup, just to show everybody how smart they are. If it just so happens that a versatile fill-in like Johnson outperforms Ugoh, Johnson gets the gig. If it just so happens that Kyle DeVan from the Boise Burn of Arena Football2 outperforms sixth-rounder Steve Justice, he gets the job and Justice gets waived.

Don't know anything about the guy, but I loved this quote from the second article you posted.

      Panthers signing WR John Metchie

      I tend to think that you're right, but fans can hope.  Metchie hasn't actually translated so far to the NFL for reasons we can point to, and others we probably cannot. This will probably be his best opportunity to stick and raise his value, obviously because of past chemistry with Young, but I don't think that fans can count on it based upon what he's done so far in the league. It would seem that he would've been given that opportunity in Houston, but they not only drafted one, but two receivers. Tells you how they valued him. Philly didn't blink when they traded him to the Jets who refused to tender him, so no one has really valued what he brings--not really. Moreover, Bryce is in the big boy leagues, now. He doesn't have time for sentimentality when it comes to security blankets. T-Mac and Coker are established.  That being said, chemistry can cause explosions under the proper circumstances, but I wouldn't count on Metchie being anything more than a sub-explosion at best.

      Beyond the locks, that's so gross, there is no reason Tremayne should be our 3rd (as I'm over XL and he shouldn't be higher than #4 on our depth chart this year), just no. It's why I was really hoping we'd just get rid of XL for whatever the best draft pick we can get for him is.  Then sign a true quick twitch guy to be our slot WR, and even then, still hope that Horn Jr might take that spot from them in camp anyways and turn that FA signing into our #4, with Moore as a special teamer who gets a jersey and then Tremayne as that last project.
