I think Johnson did reach the pinnical of the college game, a game where physical skills often overshadow mental acuity. But he's still going pro with a lot to learn. He can't ever make up this lost EXP in the NFL, he's going to be on the same learning curve as his entire class now.

I think the only first round WR who will live up to the hype surrounding him will be Dwayne Bowe of LSU.

It wouldn't shock me if Bowe had a better career than Johnson, despite the sizable gap in talent.
