So does Josh Johnson have a shot at a bench job? just wondering as he has a incredible td:int ratio. Finished his college career with 152 td and only 16 ints.
Johnson is one of the more intriguing players in this game. He was impressive to me last night. First time I've seen him play though, so take it with a grain of salt. As you reference, his statistics are mind boggling. Over his last two years at San Diego, Johnson ran for about 60-70 yards per game (~7 ypc) and scored 13 TDs running. For fantasy purposes, this gets my attention. He also had some nice runs in last night's game. So, he's definitely mobile. His passing stats are even more impressive, granted the competition wasn't the best, but still.. He's completed over 68% of his passes over his career as a 3-year starter with 113 TDs to just 14 INTs. He even caught a TD pass as a junior. Watching the game yesterday, he piqued my interest before I even realized it was him who I was watching. He appears to have a decent arm and overall seemed to look the part. His size isn't bad either - 6' 3" and 200 lbs.
I'm no Joel Buschbaum, or Bloom for that matter, but I think he has what it takes to make an NFL roster and perhaps emerge some where down the road. Right now, I think he and Dennis Dixon appear to be the best value plays in terms of dynasty leagues and value. Dixon's knee injury will cause his stock to fall and he's someone that really impressed me last year on the field.
I have no idea where the pundits are ranking the QB class right now, but I'm starting to put my own together and - off the cuff -I'm putting Johnson somewhere around 6th to 8th.. in the mix with Flacco, Booty and Ainge and after the top flight guys like Ryan, Woodson and Brohm. Dixon is in that mix, too, along with Chad Henne.
EDIT: to add here's a
link to an article on Johnson. Most interesting, beyond the article itself, are the comments below regarding the DI-AA competition, playing for a school that does not offer scholarships, etc. This is definitely a kid I'll be watching when we get into July and August and training camps are underway. I want to see how he adjusts to the NFL level of talent. So far, I don't see any reason why his game won't translate well. On the surface, I really like what I see here. And it sounds like Cecil and Sigmund really like him during the week of practice as well now that I've finally read through this whole thread.
Seriously - Great job as always fellas!
what means WSL team?

Also have essentially no idea of his strength or 40 speed...and how these will translate to Pro scouts. Very much looking forward to specifics here. Any further input will always be appreciated!
