ESPN analyst on what's next for Wiggins, Trotter with NFL draft approaching

Clemson star defenders Nate Wiggins and Jeremiah Trotter Jr. enter the 2024 NFL draft with their pro ambitions imminent for reality in late April.

Nate Wiggins impressed at the NFL combine, posting a 4.28-yard dash, 1.59 10-yard Split, and 36” vertical jump. His 40-yard dash set social media ablaze, but most importantly, it gave scouts another reason to draft the junior cornerback.

ESPN head draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. ranked Wiggins as an 11th overall pick back in January for his first NFL mock draft since the end of the 2023 college football season. Wiggins was the first corner off the board, and the Minnesota Vikings were tabbed for the 6’1 junior.
