Football: Look at Chris Orr’s draft stock before April’s NFL Draft

The University of Wisconsin football team had a better-than-expected 2019 season and much of their success can be credited to one of the best defenses in the nation. Linebacker Chris Orr was among the leaders on defense and may hear his name called at the 2020 NFL Draft.

Orr has seen success across his four-plus seasons with the Badgers — playing in 50 games including 30 starts, 14 of which came in his senior season. While Orr played in four full seasons, he did tear his ACL on the first defensive snap of 2016 against Louisiana State University, forcing him to miss the remainder of the season before returning in 2017.
