Athletic Comps for Top 2022 Rookies in the NFL Workout Explorer – Just How High Are the Ceilings?

Shawn Siegele uses the NFL Workout Explorer to evaluate all the physical comps for top prospects in the 2022 NFL draft.

The 2022 NFL combine came along and did what it always does; it dramatically altered the landscape. The top prospects generally moved up, and while RB continues to look relatively thin, the WR position is now populated with sleeper options galore.

Last week on Stealing Bananas, Ben and I argued that dynasty players were likely to want those 2022 rookie picks following the NFL reality draft.

After a combine that featured blazing forty times at the glamor positions, this predicted jump in value should happen sooner than later.

The next step in the process is to calibrate our expectations, and I like to work through this by first using the NFL Workout Explorer to familiarize myself with a player’s physical comps. Integrating production is the next step, but nothing helps remind you of production’s importance like examining comps without that on-field element.

It also helps answer a fun question: Just how athletic are these guys?
