Draft Scouting Report
Pro Comparison: Tre'Davious White
Summary
You have to take in a handful of games to really appreciate how good Johnson is as a prospect. That’s because there’s really not much in the way of traits that jump off the tape immediately. After a few games, though, you realize you haven’t written down many negatives. He’s competitive, athletic and an especially quick processor when reading receivers’ routes. Put all that together and he looks like a safe bet to make the leap.
