im surprised he is still around.  QBs usually get overdrafted.  i figured he'd be off the board now.  as well as john david booty.

What's your take on Johnson?

I thought Josh Johnson and Kevin O'Connell were the two best longterm QB prospects in the 2nd day.

I didnt really know anything about Johnson other than his great stats.  and the fact his coach was Jim Harbaugh.  but you kinda figure maybe his stats were due in part to the lousy competition.  Then I saw him play in the East/West shrine game and I was blown away.  the guy was the best player on the field by a wide margin.  and there was some decent talent out there.  he had a big arm.  made some great throws down the field.  he is 6'3 so he is tall enough.  he is kinda thin but he could bulk up some.  plus he has the ability to make plays with his feet.  he is a great athlete.

he isnt the kind of guy who comes in right away.  but put him on the bench.  let him learn for a couple years.  just like we did with Garrard.  The few clips Ive seen and the East/West game, his accuracy looked great.  and he had big time arm strength.  but they say his accuracy isnt his strong suit.  but early on it wasnt Garrard's either.

I think Johnson is the ideal kind of QB youd want to draft and develop.

Yes, the competition may not be on par with the major D-I's out there, but man I think he can play also.  Sometimes I think if a guy has the talent and devotion, it really doesn't matter what division he plays in.

Looks like Josh Johnson will still be there for our picks in the 5th...wonder if we take him. I wouldn't mind taking him with the later 5th round pick

patriots just traded into the bucs spot.  they arent taking a QB. and neither is ATL.  so Johnson is probably ours if we want him.
