He burst onto the scene with a phenomenal senior season at Florida State, was arguably the best player all week at the Senior Bowl, and he then put up a dominant performance in front of the NFL executives at the NFL combine.
PFF has been high on Jermaine all season, and they think that he’s firmly locked into the first round, with a shot at the top 10. They have him going to the Houston Texans at pick number 13. Here’s what they had to say about the 2021 All-American:
“Johnson was the best player on the field for most of the Senior Bowl practices, impressing scouts so much that he opted out of the final day of practice and the game itself."
"The 6’4”, 259-pound edge defender has over 34-inch arms and the tools to put them into action. He produced multiple pressures in every game he played for Florida State last season and ended the campaign with an 81.0 PFF grade.”
