Is Charles Johnson top 10?

CJ will probably finish the season with at least 10 sacks. He seems to be the only consistent player on the defensive line. He is super strong with good pass rushing skills. He looks a little faster to me this year than in previous seasons as well. Do you think he's a top 10 caliber DE?

So far he has more tackles than some of the more popular DE's in the league. His 8.5 sacks is more than Julius Peppers. However he doesn't have any passes defensed, recorded at least and 1 FF.

We need to get a DT to help him out. I think Hardy will be great next year.

Yeah, I would say that if CJ could get some push in the middle then he would be one of the top DE's in the league. He is not flashy and he doesn't really pass the eye test like Peppers, Williams, Allen and some other DE's do but he is consistent and very fundamentally sound too.

HELL no. You guys are as bad as Fox announcers thinking Godfrey is playing at a Pro Bowl level because of stats. CJ has been one of the few guys on the team like James Anderson that has exceeded expectations, but he's just a guy when it comes to playing the run and gets most of his sacks through pass coverage and easy clean-up duty. Not bashing the guy because he's definitely improved, but we're so starved for quality play that we'll latch on to the tiniest thing.

CJ finally got his shot and has played bananas. He is one of several players we have to lock in to new contracts.

1. Ryan Kalil

2. James Anderson

3. Charles Johnson

King, Marshall, Davis, Moore and yes Dwill are all expendable. I would try and sign and trade Dwill though.

Thank you for bringing reality into this discussion. Anybody that thinks he's top 10 in the league needs their head examined.

It merely appears he's Top 10 given the relative atrocity the rest of the team is. I'm surprised someone hasn't used the same relative comparison to suggest Goodson as a Top 10.

Look, I like CJ at DE. I think he was a good draft pick and I think he'll be very good for years to come, but he's not yet a Top 10. He just looks that good when surrounded by crap.

    • Yeah well I was agaisnt Hurney coming back and then helping hire Rhule but it happened anyways. Tepper has made it so bad and it's still ongoing currently.   
    • Yeah, that "Me against the world" mentality can work....when you are right and know what you are doing. But if you don't know what you are doing and can't accept that you need to learn, that is an impossible hill to climb.  
    • I can’t argue too hard with established track records. Just hope because it has happened before.   I think it takes massive and embarrassing failure. It isn’t hard to conceptualize the general truism that success in one field does not guarantee success in another. I have had to experience that in my the hard way before, dealing with a self made millionaire friend.  Getting them to understand that is very difficult. I had to part ways to escape it 30 years later, he still hasn’t learned. But he isn’t my problem anymore….  Tepper cannot be excised so easily.
