Those 6 sacks he had his senior year.. seems a little low, right? Well I also read that he almost always faced a double team, which would explain that.

The more I read about this guy the more excited I get. I’m trying to contain myself but it’s difficult.

I really hope he claws his way from the 7th round into the starting lineup, or at least gets some good playing time so we can see what he’s really made of.

Seriously, though, it is hard not to get excited about this kid.

here is an excerpt
“A converted outside linebacker, Brian Johnston continues to grow — physically and in the eyes of NFL scouts. A product of the Garner-Webb weight room, where he has added more than 45 pounds of bulk since his freshman year, Johnston is regarded as the premier defensive prospect below the Bowl Subdivision ranks….The Hendricks Award and Buchanan Award finalist continued to wreak havoc in the opposition’s backfield as a senior. He recorded 74 tackles (34 solo) with six sacks and ranked third nationally with 24 stops behind the line of scrimmage. He also deflected three passes, caused a fumble and experienced every defender’s dream – playing on offense and catching a 3-yard TD pass.”

He can catch TD passes! That sounds like some other DE we used to have…what was his name again?

I agree. Who was that rb mini camp sesation several years back that did nothing when the pads went on? Haynes.. something like that?
