1. Not a ton of info about this guy but seems like he’d have been a 5th or 6th round pick type of prospect if he didn’t get injured.

2. Wish my job interviews went like that

3. 3 years? I wonder what their plan is

4. love fantasizing about these guys turning into all-pros

5. Another Duke player? Well, hopefully this guy doesn’t get 4 years of excuses and a ridiculous contract from the Gmen… Maybe if he looks like a Boy Scout and spends the night at Mara’s mansion while he waits on his contract, he will!!!!

6. In a perfect world someone reposts this in like 2 years as we look back on an amazing “diamond in the rough” type signing.

7. I’m not familiar with Johnson: is anyone here? Hopefully he will be a nice upgrade to pair with Adoree!

8. Very good for us at Duke despite (like DJ) suffering from incompetent and frankly negligent coaching.

9. Schoen out here signing us a CB1? /s

   Should be a good developmental/depth guy, maybe he turns into something, but if he doesn’t I’m sure we’re paying peanuts for him so no harm no foul

10. Why are the giants scouts so obsessed with duke football?

11. Schoen is learning from Gettleman mistakes and building depth.

12. He was really good at Duke. His graduating class had a really good showing, especially on the defensive side of the ball, with a number of draft picks and guys that made rosters. Even though the 2022 record and stats don’t indicate it, the defense that year could’ve been a top 25 D if Cutcliffe knew how to hire offensive assistants. That defense was on the field A LOT
