Walter of WalterFootball has been WalterFootball'ing since 1999'. Older Content is being kept around here. Thanks for reading.
Strengths: Good height for position Thick, cut, muscular frame Highly athletic Explosive Good agility and can change directions quickly Shows coordination and flexibility Very strong and powerful Sideline-to-sideline ability Always around the football Active Fluid hips and can cover tight ends Displays great range in zone A productive playmaker Tough Versatile; any scheme player Improved his ability when taking angles to the football Stack-and-shed linebacker Poised and under control High upside Nice overall skill set
Weaknesses: Might lack some instincts Talent hasn't always shown through on field Doesn't have great timed speed A little inconsistent Could be a more effective blitzer Needs to improve reaction skills Minor durability concerns
Summary: Johnson is a linebacker with a very high upside, but hasn't caught the full attention of NFL scouts quite yet. If he can stay healthy next season, I think he is going to move up draft boards because of his impressive skill set and high upside.
Player Comparison: Jon Beason. Their body frames, physical approach to the game and range are very similar.
