Hopefully he can take over for Gandy when his career/contract is over

I thought we signed a rookie last week? Maybe I was just dreaming.

Sorry

Good to hear!

How mobile is 'House'? His 382 lbs is very impressive, but is it a place Kurt Warner can hide when the storms coming at him?

Good news!

Here's a scouting report on Johnson: http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/518158

He's pretty nimble for a guy his size, while he may not have the fastest feet, his huge wingspan and powerful upperbody compensate for his foot movement. Should be a great fit at RT, which is the position Whiz is giving him the most reps.

He will do well with Grim's coaching.

 

[RugbyMuffin]

Glorious news.

Keep'em coming is right.

Sounds great! I can hardly wait to see him in preseason action.

my man! keep the 5th round pick magic going HOUSE!

 

[RugbyMuffin]

6'7" and 364 lbs.

Nothing else needs to be said.

I still say line him, Brandon Keith, and Elton Brown up on one side in short yardage and just plow the defense off the LOS for conversions.

 

[Perfectionist]

Nice. But how about getting Wilson signed!

 

[cardsfanmd]

Uh, Gandy plays LT and is like 31. He isn't retiring anytime soon.

i was cleaning out a drawer at work and came across an old Usa Today Sports Weekly. Every week they would put a college player in their draft spotlight. That weeks was Herman Johnson. At that time(week 3 of last year's college football season), he was rated the #2 OG prospect and #28 overall. Not too bad for a 5th round pick.

He's a monster. He must protect us.

If you watched him at the combine, you wouldn't be convinced that he's a fit, let alone a "great' one at RT. If he was, he wouldn't have been around in the 5th round. He has guard written all over his huge backside.

Doesn't Gandy only one one more year left on his contract? I don't remember offhand.
