Ever since the NFL Scouting Combine, his draft stock has risen.
Jalen Hurts, former Alabama and Oklahoma quarterback, posted strong numbers in the 40-yard dash (4.59 seconds), vertical jump (35”) and broad jump (10’5”) while proving to pro scouts his ability to make every throw on a football field.
He dominated the conversation throughout the event and created major value for himself.
Prior to the Combine, many felt he would be selected between the fifth and seventh-round of the upcoming draft, but the narrative has now changed.
According to Bucky Brooks, a former NFL player and scout, the draft analyst expects for Hurts to come off the board on day two.
