At the current moment, there is a debate about what the current team that owns the No. 1 pick should do, and now former NFL star wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson believes that Ohio State’s Marvin Harrison Jr should go in that spot.
Johnson wants to see another former Buckeye, Justin Fields, getting help. On “Undisputed,” he made a case that the Chicago Bears need to get their quarterback more pass-catching options. His argument is pretty simple, a quarterback who has weapons can play at an extremely high level with elite talent around him.
Skip Bayless asked him if Harrison Jr. should go first, and Johnson said “I probably would.”
Part of the reasoning why he thinks Harrison Jr. should go first is the potential teams picking behind the Bears. Many of those teams need an offensive playmaker, and taking the Buckeye star would give Fields another option aside from DJ Moore.

Hard to disagree with Johnson’s rationale, but first Harrison Jr. has to make his intentions known. Many believe he will move on to the NFL, so it’s a wait-and-see situation for NFL teams.
