You can get all the yarn you've ever dreamed of
No one has ever questioned Ian Johnson's heart or character, but after IJ's stellar sophomore campaign, his NFL draft stock appeared to be dropping precipitously. Ian suffered some freak injuries throughout his career and had to deal with a retooled offense that no longer gave him the ball as much as he was accustomed...and then there were the questions about his speed. All in all, I don't think things were looking great for IJ, draftwise. But the all-time WAC rushing TD leader has been turning heads at the combine this weekend and quieting some naysayers that thought his sophomore season was a fluke. Ian just finished running his 40-yard dash in Indianapolis and officially has run the second fastest time of the day...just 1/100th of a second behind Virginia's Cedric Peerman at 4.46 seconds. Ian also put up impressive numbers on the bench press, finishing with 26 reps of 225 lbs. Those finishing with more reps than Ian among the running backs were mainly fullbacks. Ian also finished 4th and 5th amongst running backs in the 20-yard and 60-yard shuttle runs, respectively.
With Ian's character speaking for itself, and now being backed up by solid combine numbers and experience on special teams—I think that Ian just made himself (and Chrissy) some cash.
Nice job, Ian.
By the way, Jeremy Childs ran a 4.57 in the 40—not amazing...but not terrible. Hey, nobody ever said JC was a burner, right?

Thanks for your reasoned insight, Millionaire Maker. I can tell you really know your football. So what do you think, IJ going in the first 4 rounds now?
I've always been interested in working from home, but then again, that's pretty much what I do now. Except I don't get paid!!!
Anyhoo, IJ is the man again. Some people had forgotten about him due to his drop in carries, but now everyone knows him again. But this time its not for proposing to his girlfriend, its for being a serious NFL prospect. As for the draft, I can definitely see him going early the second day. 3rd or 4th round sounds about right today, but who knows what can happen after the Pro Day.
