Quinn Meinerz 2021 NFL Draft Profile<\/h2>\n

Making a major rise up the boards despite coming from a Division III program, Quinn Meinerz is quite the prospect. A scarcely recruited prospect out of Hartford Union High School outside of Milwaukee, Meinerz grew into form at Wisconsin-Whitewater. During his time with the Warhawks, he was a major part of lines that pushed their way to three conference titles. However, the last year made the scene murkier for Meinerz to shine. Despite missing all of 2020 with Division III football shut down, Meinerz changed his body, adding strength and speed for the professional game. The payoff wound up being massive, with the little-known interior lineman skyrocketing up boards through an impressive Senior Bowl week.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The blocker and his belly might\u2019ve been the biggest story to emerge from the entire Senior Bowl week in 2021. While he broke his hand during the process, he made a name by impressing professional coaches and Senior Bowl director Jim Nagy. Additionally, Meinerz tests extraordinarily well as an athlete. While he\u2019s a little undersized in height, his burly body and quick feet alter his ceiling. He ranked eighth among 2021 prospects with a 9.98 relative athletic score, a stat measured by Kent Lee Platte. Further, Meinerz has overwhelming strength and blew defenders away at Wisconsin-Whitewater and during Senior Bowl training. His strength was re-emphasized when he completed 33 bench press reps at his pro day, which was less than two months after suffering his broken hand. Additionally, the personality shines in Meinerz, who\u2019s becoming a media darling in the run-up to the 2021 NFL Draft.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
