Jurgens knew he would test well, which he has done, and his draft stock will likely rise.  He made a smart decision to go to the NFL.

Obviously this should be "among OL" but pretty impressive.

All I've seen for JoJo is a 4.62 official 40.  Anything else?  I know he tested yesterday, but can't find a thing. Thanks in advance.

Looks like 4.38 official.  That's helping his stock IMO.

 I just heard that he finished pretty much in the middle of the pack for all of the tests

Tied for 4th among all CB's.  Heard he did well in other drills at the combine.  His stock will improve.

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.

Let's go!!!!!

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. 

[admo]

@runningblind Well thank you!  The experts never mentioned him going 2nd among centers.  That's just what I noticed of all centers in the draft... that there isn't anyone between round 1 and round 6 rated high, with the possible exception of CJ. 

 

Side note.. IMO, doing exercises in shorts, running a 40 yard sprint, throwing up plates of 225 indoors doesn't replace the film.  But some execs love to over value that.  For Cam it should get him drafted and on payroll.
