2017 NFL Scouting Report: Roderick Johnson, OT - Florida State

Without question, one of the biggest priorities for the Denver Broncos heading into the 2017 NFL Draft is finding a prospect capable of manning down the left tackle position for the franchise. It's certainly a glaring need for the team and it's doubtful that anyone currently on the roster will be able to fill that void. Given such, the popular opinion among fans and draft analysts is the team acquiring Utah's Garret Bolles, Wisconsin's Ryan Ramcyzk or Alabama's Cam Robinson in the first round of the NFL Draft to fulfill that need.

The aforementioned trio of prospects are widely-regarded as the best available at the position in this year's NFL Draft, but Florida State's Roderick Johnson has the potential to be better than any of them if a coach can hone in all his talent and carve him into the player he showed flashes of in his collegiate career with the Seminoles.
