We will be lucky if McFadden and Jamar Johnson are on the roster next year. Whop and Fryfogle I think will both be drafted. Jerome Johnson has a good chance to be, as well. Projecting ahead.. Mullen and Mathews are both pros. Mullen probably have to play nickel corner, but you can't count that kid out. I think Charles Campbell is a pro too. After that.. whole lot of fringe guys: Taylor, Williams, Hendershot, Cam Jones. Guys we need to see more game action from: Miller, Marshall, Hewitt, Swinton, Ellis. Another guy I think... AJ Barner, he is freaking HUGE and has made multiple plays on KO coverage this year. If he is fast enough to play on our KO team at 6'6 235lbs already.. goodness. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierfan1901 Posted December 8, 2020 Report Share Posted December 8, 2020 I could see a couple of guys getting drafted or being UDFAs over the next few years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are the injuries enough to scare the pros off? 3 season ending injuries in 3 years is probably too much to get anything beyond a late round pick/UDFA pick up. Especially given the nature of the injuries. Maybe if he were able to play 2 more years straight with no injuries he might have a better shot, but even then I think his ceiling would be considered to be relatively low. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrflynn03 Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 I cant really add any more than @btownqbalready has. But just want to say, McFadden is an animal. And Mullen too. This defense is ridiculous. In a good way. The best I've ever seen at IU. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoB2011 Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 Penix is an NFL QB. If he can put together a healthy season and continue building on this seasons success next year he'll be in discussion for a first round pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope and pray so...but I just don't see it with his injury issues. He has a "glass jaw" in boxing terms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
