H-Back David Johnson, Northern Iowa

[tm1119]

Boy, is this kid intriguing....6'3 225 lb running back who has very good hands.

6,416 total yards on offense with 63 TD's in 50 career games. I don't care what competition he plays against, those are immpresive #'s. I think he would make a real weapon out of the backfield. Guys with his size, athleticism, and natural hands don't come along very often. He reminds me a lot of a bigger version of Charles Sims from WV.

He struggled running the ball against Iowa (N. Iowa's o-line had no shot), but check out his hands in this video.Torched them a couple times for a total of 5 catches for 203 yards and a TD.

Guy was on a lot of scouts radar after that game.

He's a RB and a very good one. Would love to see him behind our OL. I don't think we'll be drafting a RB though.

I mentioned him a few weeks ago in the Ajayi or Langford thread. If we're in the 5th I wouldn't mind taking a **** on him. He's had some games were he hasn't impressed. That level of competition he should dominate. Sometimes he does and sometimes he doesn't.
