Nodisrespect Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I like this he's really good, just short not small though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverNBlackFan Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Like it alot. Higher upside and much more versatile than HaHa, who we were rumored to be interested in. Every players we've added so far is a undisputed good football player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humble_Beast Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 good teams have depth, Harris is the 3rd safety who could fill in either spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Raider Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Another move im a big fan of. And another guy thats a proven football player, in their prime, with the ability to have their best football in front of them. Another guy that gives us a ton of versatility (like Brown and Brown with their abilities to play any WR spot and left or right tackle). Seems to be the theme. Get veterans that know how to play at the NFL level and can be productive but also not old or past their prime. It seems like a nice balance between Grudens love for veterans and long term outloook. Maybe Chucky is more adaptable or perhaps Mayock is just a steadying presence. But its hard to not be excited about this offseason so far. Joyner might actually be my favorite move, hes 28, he excels in coverage which is solely needed on the backed of our defense and in the current NFL period, he has versatility to play safety or slot corner where we have been susceptible, and he has experience playing on some good teams the past couple of years. He knows what it takes to win, hes productive, and he could still be a high impact player for the next 5 years. Thats a good signing IMO. With him, Conley, KJ, Harris, we have a nice little core of guys in the secondary. If Conley takes a step forward like i believe he can and we can add to the trenches to provide a reliable pass rush we could be in business. And like others have mentioned were setting ourselves up nicely to be able to attack the draft however we see fit. We obviously still have a bunch of needs but the more quality players we are able to bring it at positions of need the more freedom we have in the draft, and with 4 picks in the first 35 thats a fantastic situation to put ourselves in. I have been a little confused through Grudens first season not totally sure of what the plan was, or if there was a plan, but I the start of this offseason is making me think Mayock was a fantastic hire, and Gruden may have realized we needed to take a step back to take multiple steps forward. Time will tell, but these moves have all been encouraging to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had bums like Nelson, and Gilchrist with no range getting abused... Joseph might be on the trade block, idk if its smart to have two short safeties I agree Joseph could still be on the block Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 A secondary of Conley, Worley, Joyner and Joseph isn't that bad honestly. I think we need another CB for sure but after we upgrade the line and can finally generate some pressure, I think we will be okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riceman80 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Ecstatic about this move. I've been dying for a centerfielder in the back half forever. Joyner brings alot to the table, both pre-snap and during the play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OG_C2X Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Joyner is an awesome signing. He will start next to KoJo in base. And in nickel in will play the slot and harris will play next to KoJo. I like it. Still want a CB in the first 4 picks. Or Roby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one hope we slow down the "big" signings. Brown, Brown and Joyner is accounting for lot of money. I think/hope we are out on Bell now and go for some of the tier 2-4 FA's.

Cut penn and roberts to get 11Mil back. Give Bell for 16mil and then ride the rest of FA out on a high. Lets nail the draft 3 defensive players and N. Harry. And lets win the West. Screw Mahommes and Hill. Gruden got this. Lolz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRaider Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I really like the move. Expecting to see a lot of 5 DB sets with Conley, Worley, Joyner, Harris, and Joseph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolni Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I'm not a fan of this move...and I quite like Joyner as a player. We have had troubles against TEs since I can remember, we have Kelce and Hunter in our division and we bring in a 5'8 S to pair with out own 5'10 guy?!?! Really?! Joyner is a really good fit as a cover 2 or cover 4 S (and we use those coverages a lot) and he can be a solid NCB for us too. He is basically a much better version of Gilchrist for us, but I still can't see this Smurf Starting Safety tandem working well. Erik Harris should have a solid rotational role as S when Joyner is at CB and also possibly Harris can be a TE guard even from LB spot if we can't upgrade the LB spot enough...
