Browner has been listed as a backup on the depth chart in Seattle but impressed in their preseason game this week. Had a couple knockdowns on passes thrown his way and the team seems to be quite high on him. They really like his size.
Bulcke is third on the 49ers depth chart at right DE. He had a solo and assisted tackle last night against New Orleans and spent some time injured at the start of camp. Harbaugh coached him at Stanford and likely wants to see him succeed in the NFL but it doesn't appear like Bulcke has done much to blow anyone away in camp. I'd say he's most likely to end up in Calgary this year.
Tom Johnson is getting a ton of good publicity in NO, this tweet came out a couple days ago about him....
"Aug. 10, 2011 6:23 p.m. - by Larry Holder - DT Johnson standing out
Journeyman DT Tom Johnson continues to see action with the first-team defense. The former CFL standout has been in the DT rotation throughout camp so far and may be the favorite to land a potential fourth DT spot. Saints RapidReports"
Considering he signed a three year deal before the lockout with some guaranteed money included, I'd say he's looking good to make the DL rotation and earn a spot on the roster.
Luckily for the Stamps, Bulcke is the guy they currently need the most out of the three. His NI status on the DL would go a long ways to replacing Corey Mace for this year and filling the Stamps biggest hole.
