2019 NFL Combine: 10 players who showed out
By Joe Romano
Garrett Bradbury, OL, North Carolina State
A position where it is hard to increase your stock at the NFL combine is the offensive line. There are plenty of examples of players hurting their stock. Just look at Oklahoma’s Orlando Brown from a year ago who cratered his stock from a first round pick to falling all the wya to 83rd overall in the third round. There are much less examples of players that boosted their stock.
Garrett Bradbury of North Carolina State can be the latter example. Bradbury is leaving Indianapolis with his stock as high as it can be. Like most prospects that value is directly related to his 40-time. Bradbury ran a 4.94 40-yard dash which would place him among the top 95% of offensive lineman.
Outside of the broad jump, Bradbury did not finish below the 84th percentile in any single drill. He proved to be a great lateral mover with 4.53 20-yard shuttle and 7.41 three-cone drill. Those all match up with what he showed on tape. His pulling ability and the way he moves along the line laterally may be the best in the class.
Reviews of Bradbury from inside meeting rooms were extremely positive as well. That is where these prospects really make themselves money and he did that running away. Despite being an interior offensive lineman, in a very talented class, Bradbury has positioned himself to be a late first round selection and an immediate starter wherever he lands.
