Huskers in the 2022 NFL Draft



People can definitely overreact to measurables, but gotta think this helps Cam's stock. He and Linderbaum were both listed at 6'3 290, and you always wonder if that's actually 6'1, ~280. Legit 6'3, 300+ and long arms is great - Linderbaum is 6'2 and 296, with very short arms. Cam is not passing him as a prospect by any means, but I buy arm length and weight mattering for OL more than hand size for QB. 

 
Taylor-Britt blazed a 4.38-second official time, according to the NFL Combine website. Both of Taylor-Britt's times on NFL Network were unofficially listed at 4.45 seconds, so Taylor-Britt was much faster than the clock used on TV.
The 4.38 time was fifth-fastest among cornerbacks and in the top 20 of all participants at the event. It's one of the fastest 40s ever run by a ex-Husker at the Combine, as well, with former NU corner Fabian Washington breaking the 4.3-second barrier back at the 2005 Combine.

Even though the NFL draft and combine player profile  has Cam Jurgens scoring extremely low, I agree more with a few NFL draft experts that believe he will be 4th or 5th rounder.  They also say there is no one between Iowa's center (1st rounder) and Jurgens.  All other centers are projected 6th or 7th rounders (draft experts).

Cam Jurgens draft grade from NFL player profile.  It's kind of harsh IMO.

8.0  The perfect prospect
7.3-7.5  Perennial All-Pro
7.0-7.1  Pro Bowl talent
6.7-6.9  Year 1 starter
6.5-6.6  Boom-or-bust potential
6.40-6.49  Will become good starter within two years
6.30-6.39  Will eventually be plus starter
6.20-6.29  Will eventually be average starter
6.10-6.19  Good backup with the potential to develop into starter
6.0-6.09  Traits or talent to be above-average backup
5.80-5.99  Average backup or special-teamer (Jurgens at 5.83)
5.60-5.69  Candidate for bottom of roster or practice squad

They are answering their own question with the bold.  A team is going to draft him, higher than these guys have graded, due to him being the 2nd best available and he tested very well at the combine.
