Lageman said he would take it in a heartbeat. I agree with him. Johnson should be your 3rd string RB at best if you've invested a 3rd RD pick in Bigsby to begin with. You can also move Hasty up into the line-up now who already knows the offense from last year. 

A 4th RD player in Lageman's opinion is a potential developmental starter. Makes sense.

Thanks

4th rounders are kind of the ultimate crap shoot in the draft. 
Definitely can't rely on good probability of landing a quality player in the mid to late 4th.
 (CLE will still win some games this year) 

Is there actual talk of a trade like this?  - or was it pure speculation from the 1010 crew? 

I guess we'd be OK without Johnson, but I really like what he offers should ETN get banged up. 
Gotta put "depth" on one side of the scale and "draft capital" on the other side and see where it comes to rest.
