2. Jaylon Johnson, CB, Utah

Cornerback Jaylon Johnson fits the mold for the perfect press man coverage cornerback. I wouldn’t be shocked if a team falls in love with him and ends up taking him in round two. Although, I believe he goes in round three.

Sitting at 6-foot and 193 lbs., Robinson has all the intangibles to become a star in the league and could potentially be the steal of the draft. He is a bully on the outside in press man and locks up true number one receivers, limiting their touches. While holding up his own in the run game.

Johnson has instinctive traits that allow him to read opposing routes, including combinations off of bunch sets fairly well, combining that with a vertical that eliminates jump balls makes him a problem for opposing receivers. He also has good burst and agility that allows him to recover from mistakes fairly easily.
