I'd also be interested in knowing the real data that has knocked Johnson from the overall top ten to the top ten of the second round. Even Mike Mayock's 'negative clip' of Michael Johnson wasn't very impressive. He got caught un-decided on who to take on a QB-RB options play, but he got caught in the other teams backfield...I can live with that.
Anyone have a Michael Johnson 'lowlights' film? Seen a game where he did nothing or just got blown up? I sort of feel like everyone is emulating everyone else on this guy, but I haven't heard any 'When he lined up against _SU he got manhandled by their LT _____.'

I watched a few of his games and IMO the thing that has caused most of this neg critisizm is that he just seems to lack that killer instinct to finish plays. There were many times when he just seemed to stop or give up on a play when it looked like he still had a chance to do something. For instance one play that sticks out in my mind he blitzes and then chases a RB all the way across the feild and and then 15 yards upthe sidelines and right at the end of the play he stops and lets another player tackle the RB right in front of him. He could of easily been in that tackle but defered to the other defendar.
If he could be coached to FINISH plays he would be an allpro in no time. That is where he needs the most improvement. I would think his interview will be the deciding factor in whether a team thinks they can coach him up on that or not.
