2025 Projections
Cards add Round 2 cornerback
The Cardinals selected Johnson in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 47th overall.
ANALYSIS
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Johnson likely fell to the second round at least in part due to long-term concerns over his knee. Johnson also dealt with a foot injury in the fall and a hamstring injury this spring, so durability has been a general challenge even aside from the knee. The good news is that no one really doubts Johnson's abilities, because the 6-foot-2, 194-pound corner was likely the best player in a dominant Wolverines secondary the last three years. Johnson started his last two years and part of his freshman season at Michigan, and it bodes well for his skill-set projection that he could stand out to such a clear degree so early in his career. In addition to spearheading a Wolverines defense that rarely gave up catches or yardage, Johnson showed a unique playmaking ability by intercepting nine career passes and returning three for a touchdown.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could slide in draft
Johnson is a candidate to slide in the 2025 NFL Draft after teams flagged a knee issue in his medicals, Albert Breer of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Michigan cornerback elected not to run a 40-yard dash at the combine or his pro day, which left some organizations questioning his long speed, and a knee issue that could potentially shorten Johnson's career even if it isn't a problem in the short term creates additional uncertainty around his value. On talent alone, Johnson might be a top-10 pick, but multiple question marks might cause him to fall to the back half of the first round.
