With only 10 days left until the NFL Draft, let's take one final stab at where some Wisconsin Badgers will be selected.
Braelon Allen will be the youngest player selected in the 2024 NFL Draft. At just 20 years old, Allen already had a stellar career at Wisconsin and will provide teams with some serious talent with very little tread on the tires. Our prediction is that Allen heads to Cincinnati with the 16th pick in the 3rd round. This is towards the top of his estimated draft range, but the Bengals can fill a need after shipping running back Joe Mixon off to the Houston Texans.
After a great season with the Badgers, and posting the fastest three-cone time ever for a center at the NFL combine, Bortolini will hear his name called on day three of the draft. We have him headed to Denver with the 10th pick of the 5th round. The Broncos will need to fill the void left by the departure of Lloyd Cushenberry, and an athletic center like Bortolini fits the bill.
