Johnson had the best season of his career in 2025, finishing TE10 overall at 8.5 points per game, which was a significant jump from his TE23 finish in 2024. He caught 77 of 102 targets for 889 yards and three touchdowns, with the volume reflecting both his expanded role and the relatively thin Saints' receiving corps around Tyler Shough. The ESPN scores back up the production: 83rd percentile OPEN score, 67th percentile OVERALL. His PFF YPRR (79th percentile) and slot rate (84th percentile) confirm what he is—a reliable middle-of-the-field target. The Saints drafted Jordyn Tyson, who immediately becomes a legitimate weapon opposite Chris Olave and should command meaningful target share. That's the entire question for Johnson's 2026: how much of the volume that drove his TE10 finish gets reallocated to Tyson and the established receivers, and how much stays in the middle of the field. He's going as a TE2 in the late rounds, and that price assumes some target share regression with the upgraded WR room. If Shough leans on Johnson as the security blanket and the touchdowns regress positively from three, there's a TE1 ceiling here. If Tyson eats into the targets that were going to Johnson, he settles back into a low-end TE2.
