Bolden has more impact plays but Johnson down to down was incredible in 2017. https://twitter.com/stormsurgepod/status/1315996733713809408

Johnson gave up 105 yards receiving in 2017 with a long of 23. Bolden gave up 2 passes over 30 in one game this season.

Johnson was so insanely important as the deep safety in the run game. He prevented so many runs from breaking while the front 7 played super aggressive.

The 2 of them played different spots so the way they impact the game is going to be different, but Johnson had basically a perfect season as a MOF safety and let the defense do so much because of his ability to shut down any mistakes.

Just for an idea of what Johnson did, in 2018 Miami's def gave up 10+ yards on 13% of runs when Johnson played. He missed the UNC game that year, 34% of UNC's runs went for 10+.
