Texas Tech safety Cole Wisniewski has completed five Top 30 visits with NFL franchises leading up to the NFL Draft, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Despite being considered a notable snub from the NFL Scouting Combine earlier this offseason, the defensive standout is seeing a significant surge in interest from several high-profile organizations across the league.
The five teams that hosted Wisniewski for official visits include the Dallas Cowboys, Minnesota Vikings, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, New York Jets, and San Francisco 49ers. These Top 30 visits are critical components of the pre-draft process, allowing teams to conduct in-depth interviews, film study, and medical evaluations with prospects at their team facilities.
The interest from multiple perennial contenders, including the 49ers and Cowboys, suggests that Wisniewski is a riser on draft boards as teams finalize their evaluations. His absence from the Combine appears not to have deterred scouts who are looking to add versatility and depth to their defensive backfields. Wisniewski will look to translate this momentum into a selection during the three-day draft event.
