Henry Ruggs posts memorable Combine performance; Jerry Jeudy holds serve as a top-three WR

The University of Alabama had two of its former wide receivers participating in on-field workouts at the NFL Scouting Combine on Thursday.

Both Jerry Jeudy and Henry Ruggs III cemented themselves as first-rounders for the draft in April with strong performances.

He may not be a burner, but speed has never been Jeudy’s game.

He is an exceptional route runner, who makes his money off footwork to create separation.

Although he wanted faster times than 4.46 and 4.52 seconds, both were times draft experts expected Jeudy would run. A native Floridian, he added a 35” vert and a 10-foot broad jump to his outing, securing the status of an early first-round pick.
