Chris Johnson-CB-San Diego State

Looks like a nice CB. Any corner who can play the ball in man coverage i am all for it

Every year there's at least one prospect that I want to create a thread for (I obviously don't create much) and you beat me to it. This year it was Johnson

Toughest part about mock season when picking later in the draft is figuring out who will be there and where the team will go to address their needs.

DB is a good spot to address at 27 if we don't move up. I haven't dove all the way into the draft at this point but the few guys I've checked out Johnson is definitely a good fit for us. We tend to undervalue that position and maybe it's something we need to change...

Yup agree. The other thing that happens every single draft is that prospects fall and guys that we think will not be there, will be. This regime needs to not overthink it and take advantage of that in the same way that the Ravens and Eagles do.

IE like you just said genus; if someone like Johnson falls to 27, CB might not be a bigger "need" than an Edge rusher or OT, but the smart thing to do is to take the better prospect or how people say BPA. CB1 or 2 is a better pick than ER 4 or 5 OT 5 or 6.

This guy went down a notch for me after Senior Bowl. Elite in zone; man leaves a lot to be desired. He looked stiff and got routed more than a few times.
