Will Johnson's Player Profile

John Kosko - PFF - March 17th: "Johnson looked like a top-five pick a year ago, but an injury-shortened 2024 pushed him down draft boards a bit. "

Dante Lee - The Ringers - March 16th.: "Johnson reminds me a bit of Sauce Gardner when he’s in coverage, pairing his excellent straight-line speed with good physicality at the line of scrimmage. Johnson is just a shade under 200 pounds, so he has the size necessary to show up as a tackler on the perimeter, and we’ve seen his ball skills throughout his career."

Mel Kiper - ESPN - March 16th: "Johnson is so instinctive in coverage, and his ability to read quarterbacks jumps out when you watch him. He has great quickness in his transition, allowing him to make plays on the ball."

Jordan Reid - ESPN - Mar. 16th: "Johnson has the prototypical build of a top NFL corner plus the fluidity necessary to comfortably play a variety of coverages. He's rarely sped up by opponents, as his calculated backpedal and natural transition skills allow him to keep pace in man coverage."

Ryan Fowler - The Draft Network - March 16th: "As technically elite a corner in the class."

Danny Kelly - The Ringer - March 5th: "Playing off coverage, he likes to keep his eyes on the quarterback, showing an understanding of route combinations to anticipate where the ball is going so that he can jump a route. He flashes top-tier click-and-close speed to break up a pass or undercut a route."
