from the stands it appeared to me that Brandon Jones made a great play on that fumble. Also, I believe Jordan Johnson made two nice plays in the second half from his DE spot in limited work. We could use his size and athletic ability at least in support of the starters. I think he needs some more opportunities.

I tend to agree with you. Media access at practice is limited, of course, but I've been impressed at times with Jordan Johnson's burst and strength.

If he was any taller, he would have been playing for a BCS school

Any chance Jessie Henderson can climb to the No. 1 spot on that list?

He's a thrill to watch. Would love to see him get the record.
