I would think with a year of NFL training and diet he could rock up and be a real force.  The thing is, had he stayed healthy and played with better talent around him, he might have been a top 50 pick.  As it is, he might be in a similar situation to Markus Bailey.  He could slide all the way to a Rd 6.  

I'd be willing to take Johnson in late Rd 4 or early Rd 5, but I do think he could slide to Rd 6, like you said.
He's not a pro-ready guy, but he has good traits to build on.
