Will had been sick, didn’t run the 40—and a bunch of edge guys impressed. He’ll have a chance to make up ground at ISU’s pro day.

NFL.com has Johnson as the 6th best safety is the draft. He could end up going as high as the 3rd round, but is likely about a 5th rounder.
Wow, I'd say the move to safety helped him out
Kiper has Will going 24th to the Jags in his latest mock (ESPN+).

Kiper predicts post-free agency shake-up in Round 1: Projections for all 31 picks
Mel Kiper Jr. makes his predictions for Round 1 of the NFL draft, including projecting a trade in the top five.
It's really hard to believe this crop of meh QB's are all going to go in the top five.
Teams will reach this year for QBs in hopes of finding the next Purdy. Call it the BCB Effect.
NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah now has Will McDonald going #31 to the Chiefs:
No it’s not.
The scheme requires bigger body ends to hold the edge. The DE they just signed is reportedly 280 and the one drafted last yr was reportedly 265.
during Senior bowl practices, coaches had will dropping into pass coverage and he did well. We didn't utilize him that way but being able to drop into pass coverage helps Will's draft stock a bit.

Yes. McDonald would be a perfect edge rusher in their scheme.
I would just love to see him be a 1st rounder...but until I see it...I am not holding my breath! Not because of the quality of player he could be...just the way things seem to work!
