Raiders selected Arizona S Dalton Johnson with the No. 150 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.

25 April 2026

Johnson (5'10/192) turned heads at the Combine with a blistering 4.41 40-yard dash, highlighting elite straight-line speed. His willingness to play above his height and weight down low led to 86 or more tackles in each of his final three collegiate seasons, ultimately racking up 277 tackles since 2023. Johnson earned First-Team All Big-12 honors in 2025 while notching 97 tackles, four interceptions, and seven PBUs. His biggest shortcoming shouldn’t come as a surprise as he struggles to shed blocks as an undersized player, something that could also be an issue at the NFL level when he finds himself in tight end or big-slot coverage underneath. Johnson can immediately contribute to special teams after earning his spot on the roster via those means as a Freshman, with the added potential to play in dime packages early on in his career.
