It is possible that even with Lewan and Matthews coming out he could have leapfrogged one of them, but I doubt it.

IMO, this is a simple case of supple and demand.
That's exactly why you don't trade up for him despite the need. I'd rather try and pay McKinnie then spend multiple picks to get up to where it would take to draft Johnson.
