No doubt he fits the new Rams attitude "We Not Me." I was really impressed with Mayock's interview. Solid kid.

He seems like a more polished but slightly less athletic fs that they visited. I think it was David Jones. It makes me think we definitely take him too. He also plays cb and special teams and return kicks. I would be very happy if we get him too
I think this kid starts as a rookie....and the writing is on the wall for Joyner.
I'd be a little nervous if I was Brian Randolph too....and Cody....Davis.

Probably will swap the slot CB/free safety position occasionally with Joyner depending on opposing matchups. I expect a lot of tricky looks in the middle and center field in our nickel packages.
He'll provide good depth behind Joyner and shine on special teams. His performance as much as Joyners could decide if we resign Joyner next year or not.
Or he comes into the slot to replace Joyner as he moves to FS. His height is a bigger asset in the slot IMO. Height is not a big deal at FS.
Joyner's ability to cover, put receivers' heads on a swivel, and tackle with angst make him a good bet for FS.
My guess is that Johnson is signed to take over in the slot - not to replace Joyner.
Too bad his name isn't Johnnie Johnson. That guy was with the Rams for nine seasons, and was an all-pro in 1983.
Joyner isn't going anywhere IMO. This is a pick that adds depth with upside and potential to start

Secondary seems set unless there's an undeniable talent for an outside corner spot. Would not have been in love with Cody Davis and company slotting in for Joyner in nickel situations when he moves to slot.
Let's not forget, we'll be in nickel and dime far more than we'll be in base defense so FS when Joyner is in slot is pretty much a starter.

Then my question is who will the Cb's be? Obviously Tru will be one... I'm thinking if not safety he'll be the other CB. If that is the case we will call our coverage Johnson & Johnson!
Coverage you can count on!!! Ps I'm copyrighting that here on ROD and I get 5 ROD anybody mentions " Johnson & Johnson "coverage!

He's a bottom of the 3rd round rookie man. There's no need for him to start. He's depth for now until he works his way onto the field. They don't have to rush him.
