Cornelius Johnson

But...

Guys who were put on waivers, Michael Barrett, Evan Bernstein, Rayshon Benny, Cortez Bram, Corey Bullock, Jared Lichtenhan, Nick Dawkins, Dominic DeLuca, Aaron Graves, Xavier Guillory, Adisa Isaac, Cornelius Johnson, Jamon Johnson, Carl Jones, Robert Longerbeam, Dante McMillan, David Oladiga, Ty Pezza.

Austin Reed, Marquise Robinson, Kaymon Rucker, Lucas Scott, Octavian Smith, Elijah Tau Tolliver, Dayton Wade, Silas Walters, Ladarius Webb Jr. and Dion Wilson Jr.

So lots of quality names, plus, again, the veterans as well that ended up getting released.

So if you want to... go and look at that i highly recommend it has everything in one place so you know i don't have to i was bookmarking everything but it kind of got lost in the jumble so nikhil made it all neat here so i'm going to use you know his his thing right here so shout out to nikhil for this friend of the show good he's awesome what he does but So the players that were waived here, cornerback Robert Longerbeam, center Nick Dawkins, fullback Lucas Scott, quarterback Austin Reed, running back Dante McMillan, defensive lineman Aaron Graves, wide receiver Octavian Smith, cornerback Ladarius Webb Jr., linebacker Jermon Johnson, guard Evan Bernstein.

defensive lineman Deion Wilson Jr., running back Jonathan Ward, outside linebacker Kaymon Rucker, wide receiver Cornelius Johnson, tight end Tyler Pezza, wide receiver Cortez Bram Jr., wide receiver Xavier Guillory, safety Silas Walters, wide receiver Dayton Wade, running back Elijah Tautoliver, and linebacker Michael Barrett.

Three players are also released in wide receiver Chris Moore, safety Kayvon Wallace, and offensive tackle David Sharpe.

And Jess Rebeck also noting that defensive back Amani Oruwariye has been waived as well, who played both cornerback and safety for Baltimore this summer.

And it was an awesome catch on that ball.

Cornelius Johnson had a touchdown as well.

He had, that was a 20 yard touchdown was Cornelius Johnson.

Sorry about that.

But she not only three for 18, Josh Quaid was two for 15, Matt Hibner, two for 11, Lucas Scott, one for seven, Elijah's rat one for one.

Cortez Brahim is not a guy that's really stood out.

Cornelius Johnson has struggled catching for most of camp.

There's just nobody that's made a push.

So I think the question is who are your one or two on...

He had the one to Roman Wilson.

He had the one to Cornelius Johnson in the Ohio State game.

Just being able to have some of those to keep a defense honest, or just like J.J. did.

Ultimately, in that in my mind, he needs to be J.J. McCarthy in 2022, which essentially would make a lot of sense.

I think this, this receiving group has a chance to be really, really good.

But I saw something on Twitter that asked, not the best because I think that national championship team you kinda have to look at with Roman Wilson, Cornelius Johnson, um, was, was obviously very strong.

But someone said this is the most talented Michigan receiving corps entering a season since the Donovan Peoples-Jones, Nico Collins, Tariq Black year.

I think that would've been 2019.

You know, he came up, he only averaged 4.8 yards per catch, but, even still he's, he's a guy that I thought stepped up and, you know, could have some level of a role on this roster.

Elijah, that's Oliver had three for 14, Jonathan Ward, one for 15, Xavier Guillory, one for 13, Jacoby lane, one for nine, Cornelius Johnson, one for seven, Elijah's rat one, one for three.

I'm surprised Surat didn't play as much as he did in the first preseason game.

I don't really know what that was about.

Um, the good news is that between Andrew Marsh and JJ Buchanan, I think you have more capabilities at the wide receiver position than you've had in, you know, in, in, in some time.

I mean, i- in theory, I, I think this, these top two, uh, could be better than even what you had the last couple years with Harbaugh when you had Roman Wilson, you had, uh, Cornelius Johnson.

I mean, those, those...

That was a good duo, but they were a workmanlike duo, right? I mean, there wasn't a ton of explosive plays.

Obviously, Cornelius Johnson had a couple of big ones against Ohio State, but that wasn't who they were.

And now you look at those two guys, and I think there's a lot more explosion, a lot more run after the catch, things of that nature.

That said, when you...
