Trumane Johnson was pretty good:
Montana CB#2 (I think)
6'2 205lb
4 year starter i think too

I read the PRO FOOTBALL Draft Guide and some GM/Scout said Johnson has more overall talent than '11 first round selection Jimmy Smith(Ravens).Johnson recently did a interview with TSN and he said he modeled his game after Dominique Rodgers Cromartie of Tennessee St the '08 1st round selection of Arizona.The only aspect of Rodgers game that Johnson lacks is foot speed plain and simple.Rodgers was a OVC indoor sprint champ while at TSU running a 6.68 and he ran a sizzling 4.25 at the combine.Johnson according reports clocked between 4.50-4.62 which is definitely way too slow for somebody of his caliber.I wish DRC had Johnson's size though.Also watch for FS prospect Christian Thompson of South Carolina St. he at 6-0 213 with 4.42 40 speed has the necessary size to play on sundays he needs to become better at the mental aspects of the game.It was said he was too inconsistent.

Yes I think he'll go in the 3rd,4th round he reminds me of Marcus Colston both had the bad rap of a lack of speed.I wish that the QB Legree of Hampton wasn't a transfer he definitely at 6-4 245 has the size to play on sundays.Among defensive players I like Thompson he was clocked in the 4.42 range and as stated before has the physical aspects downpat he needs to be more consistent in his play.There is another player under the radar named Nigel Carr of Alabama St a OLB prospect he is 6-1 228 with 4.6 speed.Played well in the HBCU All-Star game.
