Amorentz-
Are you talking about the right Derek Johnson?
First off your numbers are all wrong, at yesterdays (3/23/2005) U. of Texas pro day, Derek Johnson was measured and weighed by the NFL and he came in at 6-3¼ and 243 pounds. He lifted (bench press) the 225-pound strength bar 21 times and ran the 40-yard dash in 4.52 seconds.
Also check out his highlight video of last year, first link on the left under his picture:

On this highlight reel you will notice he was playing MLB on some of the biggest hits. About 1/4 of the way through (the 6th and 7th play on the reel) he was at MLB and making big hits.
Living here in Texas I saw many of his games and nobody around here is saying he ran around blocks. He is very physical player.
Maybe you are refering to another Derek Johnson?
