by Imran Tahir, 1/11/08.  Jack Ikegwuonu has declared for the 2008 Draft. Ikegwuonu had an up-and-down 2007 season, wherein he performed substantially better against top-notch Big Ten offenses than against sub-par ones. The once lightly-recruited Madison, WI native finished the season strong (recording a particularly impressive performance against the Michigan Wolverines), and leaves the Badger football program with 6 interceptions and 35 passes defensed in his career. Ikegwuonu has very good size for a CB at 6’1,” and his physical style of play has many NFL scouts and GM’s thinking that he could alternatively be an effective Safety at the professional level. Ikegwuonu is sure to impress with his work ethic, but in order for him to solidify a late-Round 2/early Round 3 grade, a 4.45 40-yard dash time (or better) is vital.
