Northern Michigan OT Jake Witt is most intriguing — and unlikeliest — prospect in NFL draft https://t.co/Cj8HjIKR4u

[Zack Keen @zackeen9]

I’d like to thank Northern Michigan University and all of my teammates for an amazing experience. With that being said I will be entering the transfer portal.

[Kyle Jacob @kyle_jacobb]

Had a great time at @KzooFootball today! Thank you @CoachCWhitehead and @CoachZorboKZOO for the invite!

[Bullrush Sports @bullrush_sports]

Jake Witt is a Beast! Congrats @jake_witt33 on being named a Top 20 OT in "The Beast," the @dpbrugler Guide to the #NFLDraft2023 in @TheAthletic @NMU_Football @CoachChewy80 @Advantedge906 @triplefknox @SteveMariucci @PatKirwan_NFL #BeastMode

🚨UPDATE: Northern Michigan University standout OT Jake Witt has a Top-30 visit with the Cincinnati #Bengals, source says.

The Wildcats star has a private workout with the Indianapolis #Colts later this week, per league sources.
Witt has already had Top-30 Visits with the #Browns, #Broncos, #Raiders, #Chargers, and #49ers and a Private workout for the #Eagles, sources tell @_MLFootball,

I'm told Witt has interviews/calls with 31/32 teams (The Tampa Bay #Buccaneers are the exception).

The #Colts and #Bears had a very early interest in the former Two-time All-State First Team Basketball Star.

The #Ravens, #Giants, #Patriots, and #Rams have been very active with contacts/calls recently, per sources.

Multiple teams have given All-Pro tackle Tristan Wirfs as Witt’s comp, including JW’s former OL Coach who coached Wirfs at Iowa👀👀👀:

“Witt is a lot taller and a bit lighter than Wifs. But their remaining measurable are very similar.”

🤯🤯🤯

Witt’s Pro Day numbers are OFF THE CHARTS:

302 lbs (20 pounds heavier than last years playing weight)

4.89, 40-yard dash which would have been 1st at Combine by a wide margin.

Br = 10’3” - 1st @ the Combine, beats the all-time record 😳😳😳

10Y split = 1.7 - Tie-2nd @ Combine

V = 37” - Tied-1st @ Combine

Relative Athletic Score (RAS) = 9.8 (Top 2% all-time for OTs) 😱😱😱

One scout who watched his Pro Day performance called him a “unicorn.”

And one #NFL OL Coach said he has “elite movement skills” after watching him work out.

[Justin M @JustinM_NFL]

So much buzz on @NMU_Football OT Jake Witt after an incredible Pro Day. Witt met w/ 30/32 teams in some capacity, just missing the #Cowboys and #Bucs for now.

A TE convert, Witt went from 260 to 302 by eating 6k calories per day, 300g protein, 750g carbs, 200g fat.

[The New York Times @nytimes]

From @TheAthletic: The NFL is buzzing about Jake Witt, a small-school, super-freak offensive tackle prospect. After an eye-popping pro day, he has fielded calls from almost every team in the league. https://t.co/A9LI9TMjcq
