The 2022 NFL Draft is only three days away from starting and most franchises already have a preliminary list of the prospects that will be drafted to play in the league, among them is Jermaine Johnson, a young linebacker who has a lot to offer.
For the upcoming draft they will have a variety of options for offense, but one of the most important things will be picking the best players on defense. At least the defensive players are not usually draft bust and are a little more valuable.
