But he also displays surprising acceleration in the highlights above, including taking the ball to the house from both the wide receiver and tight end spots. I like a defender who knows what to do with the ball in his hands.
If I see anything to work on in these brief highlights it would be Johnson’s downfield coverage. He gets caught flat footed on a couple of plays and has to play catch up with receivers headed deep. You can do that in high school, but in the SEC you’re never more than one wrong step away from getting toasted. The Bulldog coaches will definitely be working to refine Johnson’s technique, but the building blocks are clearly there for him to be a solid, versatile defender.
With his blend of size and speed Johnson
Bulldog about town Wes Blankenship, if the rib-rocking hit Johnson lays on the first play of those highlights doesn’t light your fire, then your wood must be wet. He carries his weight well, and has the length to continue to add solid muscle in a college training program. He’s an aggressive downhill run defender, a pillar of Kirby Smart’s evaluation process. The Top Dawg likes guys who can fly up from the second and third level to cut off running lanes and make ball carriers pay. Johnson looks like that kind of guy.
