NFL Defensive Stars Rave About FSU Football's Braden Fiske's Combine Performance
Florida State's Braden Fiske put on a clinic at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine, dominating nearly every category and turning heads across the country. He placed first in the 40-yard dash (4.78), broad jump (9'9''), vertical jump (33.50''), and tied for first in the 20-yard shuttle (4.37).
So, it was no surprise that Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby and New Orleans Saints defensive lineman Cam Jordan were wowed by his performance.
Crosby was not the only one who took notice of the 6'3'', 294 defensive tackle's performance. NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah alongside multiple other analysts praised the Michigan City, IN native.
"Fiske, I think this dude, he's a lock for the second round in my opinion. He might end up finding his way into the bottom of the first round," Jeremiah said.
Jordan also raved about the exhibition wanting him side by side with former Clemson Tigers defensive tackle Bryan Breese. He made sure to introduce himself to Fiske after one of the on-field drills.
"Man, team him up with Bryan Bresee in the middle? Oooo!"
Fiske is among a plethora of FSU players who have shined during the combine, with defensive end Jared Verse solidifying his first-round status, while linebacker Kalen DeLoach showcased his speed with a remarkable 4.47 40-yard dash.
Florida State had 12 players invited to the combine, which ends on March 4. Defensive backs Renardo Green and Jarrian Jones, alongside tight end Jaheim Bell, are set to compete today at 3 p.m. ET.
