2015 NFL Draft’s Best by High School Shot Put

Multi-Sport Talk, NFL Draft, TrackingFootball News

Listed below are the top high school shot put performances by players drafted by the NFL this year. The criteria to be listed required a player to have verified high school track data in the shot put. We did not include any collegiate performances because not enough players threw shot put in college for a good comparison. We also provided each player’s bench press total (225 lbs) from the NFL Combine or Pro Day (denoted with asterisk).
