Thomas Johnson (Athlon Consensus #29)

The Analysis

PROS: Johnson plays bigger than his size indicates. He is long and slender and will use every inch of his frame to his advantage. He is a very fluid athlete who gets into and out of cuts quickly, glides through the open field and will make people miss with quality change of direction skills. His suddeness and burst make him excellent in both the vertical and spread passing attacks. Johnson possesses excellent hands and will attack the football.

CONS: Once Johnson learns the finer points of playing against zone schemes - he mostly just out-athletes defenders in one-on-one systems - he will have few weaknesses. His overall lack of height and power is complimented by his muscular build and competitive nature.
