Cody Johnson Scouting Report |
Cody Johnson - Texas (HT: 5-11 - WT: 250) |
Positives -- Hybrid RB-fullback who can run the ball between the tackles effectively; a grinder who gets the tough yardage... Can be utilized as a short yardage specialist in the NFL... Has solid speed for a man of his size... Runs low to the ground, has a nice center of gravity... Huge body, has a lot of
strength and can push people backwards; gives good effort in pass protection, needs some technique work but has the frame to improve as a blocker. Negatives -- Very much a straight line runner with limited lateral movement skills; simply tries to run through defenders... Has a limited role in the NFL due to his lack of athleticism and polish... Hasn't been utilized much as a receiver and hasn't shown consistent hands... Below average lead blocker, has mostly been used as a runner... Production fell off as a senior, led the Longhorns in rushing with 592 yards on 134 carries as a junior but had only 200 yards on the ground as a senior, the lowest output of his career.
