Johnson was unlike any tight ends on our roster. I wouldn't have even called him a tight end. A pass catcher, really. He never would've played on the line unless he was going to flex out or run the seam if we schemed him to break clean. He would have been a motion man. A guy you try and line up and find a mismatch. I think he could've given the offense a player we just don't have, but has value down the road. But at the same time, the niche would have been so small, that, as I said...I understand. In a small class, you only have so much room and the players you bring in need to project to contribute higher.
I still would've made room if he was coming, as this kid has been committed since the summer...but, not my call. I would have cut all but two of the current tight ends on our roster for Johnson.
