2019 NFL Draft: 3 Offensive lineman on the rise after NFL Combine
By Cory Kinnan
Garrett Bradbury, NC State
The interior lineman and tight end convert from NC State blew his competition out of the water, and will now see his stock fly into the first round in an offensive lineman heavy class. Measuring at 6-3 and 306 pounds, Bradbury has more than enough size to play on the interior of any offensive line and looks to be a plug and play right away.
Bradbury started his Combine performance off with, you know, 34 bench press reps, ranking him third overall out of all participating offensive lineman. Displaying size and strength, he was not done either, running a 4.92-second 40-yard dash. That time ranks him second among all offensive lineman in Indianapolis. His draft stock is soaring through the roof as we speak.
Clearly one of the most, if not the most athletic offensive lineman in the entire draft, and put it all together for the on-the-field drills as well. Showing great hip flexibility on his back pedal, great lateral quickness, and excellent footwork, Bradbury will be a hot commodity among teams in desperate need of interior lineman.
A projected second or early third rounder prior to the combine, it will be a shock to see Bradbury’s name called later than Thursday night.
