NFL Draft season is in full swing, with the scouting combine in the rearview, college pro days happening daily and the big event looming in Green Bay on April 24-26.  

In that spirit, D1 Training Founder and CEO Will Bartholomew was invited to be a guest on the Raiders NFL Draft podcast, hosted by NFL Network's Rhett Lewis and draft analyst Bucky Brooks. Among the topics discussed:

  • The training focus for NFL Draft prospects in the weeks leading up to the combine 
  • Will's own eye-popping combine numbers from 2002 and the statistic the NFL got wrong
  • What NFL teams find valuable in looking at individual results from the combine and pro days
  • How athletes have evolved over the past 20 years and what Will is seeing when they come to D1
  • And much more!
