Joe Burrow NFL Combine Predictions
By Jack Murphy
Star LSU quarterback Joe Burrow will most likely be selected with the first overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft by the Cincinnati Bengals. While it is almost certain he'll be the first name called, Burrow is still looking to impress the scouts in Indianapolis at the NFL Scouting Combine and enter Draft Day with all the momentum in the world. With that in mind, let's project the kind of performance we can expect from the 2019 Heisman Trophy winner.
Joe Burrow NFL Combine Bench Press Predictions
Joe Burrow believed that he could beat Brady Quinn's record of 24 repetitions at 225 lbs while in high school. However, as of recent he admitted he does not remembered the last time he benched. Burrow will probably stay away from the bench but if he gives it a shot, it's worth betting he'll get up between 10-12 reps.
Joe Burrow NFL Combine 40 Yard Dash Predictions
While Joe Burrow is not known for his legs, he can scramble out of the pocket when he needs too. The LSU product will not wow anyone with his 40 time but it will be respectable for a quarterback. Burrow should run a time around 4.7 seconds.
Joe Burrow NFL Combine Vertical Jump Predictions
The top quarterback in the field is far from the most athletic quarterback in the draft. His vertical jump will not be anything to write home about. He is likely to reach a height of 33 or 34 inches.
Joe Burrow NFL Combine 3-Cone Drill Predictions
Joe Burrow does not have the same agility as some of the elite scrambling quarterbacks we have seen enter the Combine. An acceptable time for him in the 3-cone drill should be around 7.3-7.7 seconds.
While Burrow may not be among the best in any of these events, he is still expected to go first overall due to his completeness as a quarterback and game manager. That's the bottom line.
