The Outlook For The NFL’s Newest Boilermakers

As we head toward the summer, it feels as if the dust has finally settled from the 2021 NFL Draft. Teams’ rosters are more or less set, and before we know it there will be buzz coming out of preseason camps. Before we get to that point though, we want to take a closer look at where five Boilermakers landed during and after the draft — and whether or not any of them could see some early team success.

To recap, Purdue saw five players catch on with NFL franchises this spring. Rondale Moore and Derrick Barnes were selected in the first and fourth rounds respectively, and Tyler Cole, Lorenzo Neal, and Grant Hermann found teams as undrafted free agents.
