NFL Draft season is upon us with the NFL Combine kicking off next week. Three Wisconsin football players are participating in the pre-draft drills in Indianapolis. The biggest name of them is star running back, Braelon Allen.
Allen, who was generating first or second-round hype before his junior season, fought through an injury-plagued junior season. Paired with a brand new offense under Luke Fickell and Phil Longo, his stats and production dropped. He managed just 984 yards on the ground, his first season missing the 1,000-yard mark in his three seasons at Wisconsin.
Despite his down year, Allen is still projected to be a second-day pick (rounds 2-3).
