Why Did Indiana Football’s Fernando Mendoza Earn a Surprising Standing Ovation in Indianapolis?
“12 months ago I don’t know if we would’ve even thought that Fernando Mendoza would be at the combine, let alone being the number one pick in the draft,” Schrager said.
Mendoza had a formal meeting with the Raiders at the combine, and he spoke about the chance to interact with them.
“It was a fantastic interview,” Mendoza said. “The coaching staff was in there, we went over some of my previous plays, drew some plays on the board. I thought it was a great meeting. I know they have the No. 1 pick, but anything can happen in the draft. I’m just excited for the opportunity, and whatever team drafts me, I’m going to give them everything I got.”
