GREEN BAY, Wis. – Michigan’s Will Johnson began the draft process as the consensus No. 1 cornerback prospect in the draft. Not anymore.

After an injury-plagued final season at Michigan and continuing with a disappointing offseason in which he didn’t perform at the Scouting Combine, was injured and missed pro day and didn’t run a 40 during Monday’s individual workout, Johnson was the Green Bay Packers’ selection in Dane Brugler’s seven-round mock draft at The Athletic.
