Autzen Audibles: Breaking Down Everything We Learned From Oregon’s NFL Pro Day

·33 min·2 clips

Kenyon Sadiq’s workout backed up the first-round buzz around his athleticism.

1. Autzen Audibles: DuckTerritory’s Oregon athletics podcast breaks down Oregon’s NFL Pro Day and the Ducks who worked out in Eugene. 2. Matt Preen and Eric Skopel host the episode, and Skopel was at the Mo observing the workouts while Preen framed the day around Oregon football’s 2026 outlook. 3. The episode asks which Oregon players helped themselves most on Tuesday and what the Pro Day revealed about their NFL draft ranges. 4. Skopel says Oregon had at least 18 players on the Pro Day roster, but only five were available for interviews afterward. 5. The hosts note that Noah Whittington, Dylan Denman, and Isaiah World did not participate, while specialists, offensive linemen, receivers, defenders, and tight end Kenyon Sadiq were on the field. 6. The conversation repeatedly returns to the lack of official times and marks, which forced the hosts to rely on stopwatches, player quotes, and visual evaluation. 7. Jaden Kennedy becomes the clearest draft stock story because the hosts hear him say he ran high 4.3s and low 4.4s. 8. Kennedy is described as a specialized nickel-slot corner whose speed can confirm the football tape and strengthen his candidacy for a real NFL role. 9. Bryce Boettcher is the other player the hosts say they wanted verified most because scouts were expecting him closer to the 4.7 range. 10. Boettcher’s selling points are his effort, his linebacker play, and the fact that he has only played the position for about two seasons. 11. The hosts argue that Boettcher’s biggest growth may come from understanding the position, not from dramatic changes in athletic testing. 12. Kenyon Sadiq is treated as one of the day’s top prospects, and the hosts say he already confirmed enough in Indianapolis that Eugene was about blocking and routes. 13. Sadiq pushes back on criticism of his blocking and says people who question it have not watched the film. 14. The hosts say Sadiq’s movement looks like a receiver’s movement even though he is a 240-plus-pound tight end. 15. Malik Benson gets attention for his 4.37 at the combine and for showing quickness in and out of breaks rather than only straight-line speed. 16. The hosts say Benson’s profile now looks strong enough that a fourth- or fifth-round range feels possible. 17. The tone is observational and evaluative, with Skopel describing drills, body language, and stopwatches while Preen presses for draft-context explanations. 18. The format mixes Pro Day recap, player evaluation, and a final segment on outgoing Ducks discussing staff changes and roster depth. 19. Listeners tracking Oregon NFL Draft prospects and roster development. 20. Listeners wanting broad national draft coverage only.
