Let’s take a look at the latest mock drafts and see where the draft analysts have a few members of the Wisconsin Football program ending up.

A few weeks ago I did my first Wisconsin Football mock draft roundup to see where the draft analysts had a few of these Badger players landing. Since then, as is the case during the NFL’s offseason, a number of things have changed.

The NFL combine and the results have been taken into account, a few Pro Days were able to take place before everything was shut down, and we are currently a week into free agency, which of course, is going to have an effect on the draft.

So as always, players are constantly moving up and down draft boards and given what happens in free agency, the way a team approaches the draft can change as well. And these factors ultimately change where these Badger players, and everyone else, is selected.

As we all know, the Wisconsin players that should hear their names called during the draft include Jonathan Taylor, the most accomplished running back in the draft. Zack Baun, who is now considered by many a first-round pick. Rimington Trophy winner, Tyler Biadasz. Along with Quintez Cephus, who has seen his draft stock rise since the college football season ended.

And we also can’t forget about linebacker Chris Orr, who had a fantastic Pro Day and is considered by many a Day 3 selection. However, there is the possibility that he goes undrafted as well.

Now, keep in mind that with most of these mock drafts typically being anywhere between one and three rounds, we won’t be seeing any Cephus or Orr mentioned. But let’s see where the experts have Taylor, Baun, and Biadasz ending up.
