Scouting Journals for Marquis Johnson

Absolute burner of a wide receiver who can take the top off of almost any secondary in the country. A true vertical weapon that possesses terrific long speed and explosiveness. Stellar track profile running a 10.60 in the 100m, 21.34 in the 200m, jumping a 6-foot-4 high jump and a ridiculous 23-foot-11 long jump during his junior track and field season. Tracks the ball very well downfield but not the most natural hands catcher. Flashes the ability to go up and win at the high point but not a consistent part of his game. Solid after the catch, has some wiggle but not the most physical runner. Average build and physique, lacks ideal length. High ceiling player due to top-tier athletic ability that can reach his potential if he grows in his consistency as a pass catcher. Has all the athletic tools and ability to score at will, just needs to become a more reliable target in the underneath and intermediate levels of the field.
