2022 NFL Draft

[Red Raider]

LB Chris Bergin - Northwestern

5’11” 223lbs
40: 4.48
3 cone: 6.59
shuttle: 3.97
BJ: 9’6”
Bench: 17 reps

Bergin had a great pro day!

Based on production and numbers, every White starter for Wisconsin should get drafted somewhere. They are fantastic.

As for Wisconsin as a state, they definitely punch above their weight when considering population for the state. As mentioned earlier, they produce many good to great players every few years. Compare them to a state like New York. I think I’d take Wisconsin and their smaller population any day.

Indiana LB Micah McFadden Pro day results:

His 40 times ranged from 4.59 to 4.64, much better than expected. His short shuttle timed 4.21, and his three-cone drill was 6.88, which bettered any linebacker who finished the event at the Combine. Lastly, his vertical jump was 35 inches, and his broad jump was 9’10”.

Pretty solid for McFadden! He had a great career too, I think he could be a late round guy that sticks around. My comparison for him would be Cody Barton, similar size and testing numbers.

Strong Safety like numbers for Bergin!

At that size with that speed and agility he could be a RB! He should be a good backup LB and core special teamer, I’d want him on my team.

I would vote running back for Bergin. I can dream right?

 

[Red Raider]

Brenden Schooler put up good pro day numbers as well.

6’2
203lbs
40: 4.38, 4.42
Vert: 37.5”
Broad: 10’8”
Bench: 16 reps

He worked out at WR and DB, expect to see him in a training camp!

 

[Leonardfan]

Wow great numbers from Schooler! Another caste system poster boy. He should have remained at DB his whole career.

 

[sprintstar]

Bergins 40 is the same as Christian Mcaffery's yet he is 1" shorter and 20lbs heavier....

This is an incredible workout. What a pro day Schooler had! We are very light on defensive backs and running backs in the NFL. If I had to choose I would prefer
either wide receiver or running back who can do everything similar to Cmac. His size, speed and strength could be a very good weapon for any team. Even on defense
he would be a nightmare for Off. Coordinators. I just think it helps change the stereotypes more on the offensive side of the ball with the typical americans short
attention span. Offense or Defense and I will still be happy.

Schooler was a freshman all America Safety. Taggart moved him to Wr the following season - if that’s not the caste system in action than I don’t know what is.

Excellent point Leonardfan. He was playing at the highest level yet his lack of a tan makes them move him to a new position where he has to start back at square one. It doesn't
make any sense from a logical standpoint. We know why they moved him and it has nothing to do with his talent.

I'm excited for this years NFL Draft. Hoping more of our guys go higher than our expectations. Also hoping for many of the NFL Combine Guys that were scrubbed to get a chance
to make the rosters on teams with needs at their positions. Alot of our football players should really make an impact playing on Sundays. We will see how it goes!

this.

also, i seem to recall that Schooler started off as a cornerback before being shifted to safety ...

 

[jacque]

I’m excited to see Horvaths pro day but I’m afraid he’ll take the Cade Carney route. White athletes tend to have the option of pursuing a great non football career after college and choose that over risking bouncing around practice squads.

I hope there is a way for the Packers to draft Pierce. He could be the next Jordy Nelson. Not only is he an athletic freak, he is smart too. He passed all the classes for his engineering major in 3-1/2 years.

Colorado EDGE Carson Wells performed well at his pro day yesterday after being a pretty big combine snub.

He ran a 4.56 40 and also jumped 35”, confirming the athleticism that we thought he had. I think he would be a good rotational piece for a team who could eventually become a starter. Likely a 3-4 OLB.

appreciate the Pro day update for Wells! He should have joined his teammate Landman as a Combine attendee.

His size, athleticism, stats, and usage in college reminds me of Chase Winovich. Very similar in all of those categories, tweener type OLB’s with good athleticism and production against the run and pass.

Good comparison and I agree. Would be a welcome addition as a OLB in a 3-4 system. He'll go late/UDFA so he'll be cheap as well.

 

[Red Raider]

For comparison, damn this is probably one of my most spot-on comps I’ve had!

Carson Wells - 6’2 5/8” 250lbs
154 tackles, 39 TFL, 17.5 sacks
4.56 40

Chase Winovich - 6’2 3/4” 250lbs
166 tackles, 43 TFL, 18.5 sacks
4.59 40

Very nice Red Raider! I hope the they are no where near as similar when it comes to playing time.

Nolan Turner had a great pro day!

4.44 40
37.5” vert
10’2” broad

all 3 were best out of all the pro day participants

Amazing that a guy that big and jacked is that fast and explosive. What a great athlete. Way to go Nolan Turner!

 

[Extra Point]

I find it interesting that white do well in the Wonderlic and they got rid of it.

Whites do well in the 3 cone and 20 yd short shuttle and now blacks are skipping those drills.
