Former LSU offensive lineman Herman Johnson weighed 15 pounds and 14 ounces at birth and is often touted as the biggest baby ever born in Louisiana.Now Johnson will be the biggest player in this weekend’s NFL draft at 6-feet, 7-inches tall and 350 pounds.”He’s got great size,” said NFL draft analyst Mike Detillier. “That’s the first thing you notice.”Detillier projects Johnson as a late third- or early fourth-round pick.But size may actually be negatively affecting Johnson’s draft stock.Johnson has been criticized for possibly being too slow for the NFL because of his size. His 5.51-second 40-yard dash time at the NFL Scouting Combine was one of the slowest among offensive linemen, and his lateral movement is considered too slow for the tackle position in the NFL.But Johnson has dropped 50 pounds since he first became a Tiger in 2004 to help his draft status and NFL possibilities.”It does help that he got his weight down, because I think he plays better at a lower weight,” Detillier said. “You want to try to keep your weight down for a quickness issue but also from a conditioning issue.”Johnson brings a big personality with his big stature — something that’s made him popular among fans and teammates.”He was always drawing attention from the fans because of the giant-like afro that he has, and he is just a monster of a guy,” said LSU general studies senior Michael Faucheux. “He’s a huge figure that you are easily attracted to.”Johnson has been frequently photographed with LSU senior wide receiver Trindon Holliday, who stands at 5-feet, 5-inches, because of their vastly different sizes.Holliday said Johnson has a great personality, but he knows when to be serious.”He was two different people as a person and as a football player,” Holliday said. “When it’s time to come to business on the football field, he’s all about business.”Detillier said Johnson would be best served to bring his business-like attitude at the guard position on a run-oriented team at the next level.”If you like to run the football and you’ve got the power running game, then I think that he’s the right pick,” Detillier said. “He’s one mammoth guy that can take over a game. He’s got the skills to do that at the guard spot.”—–Contact Jarred LeBlanc at [email protected]
