Johnson is widely seen as a contender to be the first offensive tackle off the board and should be a first-round pick in April.
The Athletic’s Dane Brugler has Johnson rated as his No. 11 overall prospect and his No. 2 tackle.
Johnson, 21, moved from right guard to left tackle in 2022 and was a consensus All-American in his final season at Ohio State.
He started all 13 games for Ohio State at left tackle in his final season.
