  Draft Scout by Conference









  Nose tackle Keeanu Benton could have turned pro after the 2021 season, his third at Wisconsin. The graduate of Janesville Craig High School chose to return to UW for his senior season for two reasons: To help UW win a Big Ten title and to improve as a player. UW failed to win the Big Ten West and finished just 4-5 in the Big Ten, but Benton put together his best season with the Badgers and on Friday announced via Twitter he is entering the 2023 NFL draft. Benton could have returned for a fifth season because of the COVID year exception. "It's been an honor to be a part of this awesome university for the past four years and I have no regrets about anything I did on or off the field," Benton wrote. "I have become a man at the University of Wisconsin and consider this my second home."

Before examining the numbers Benton posted in 2022, remember how well he played in UW's double-overtime loss at Michigan State on Oct. 15. Benton suffered a right-knee injury one week earlier at Northwestern and was limping throughout the Michigan State game. Yet he recorded five tackles and when he was on the field the Spartans struggled to open running lanes between the tackles. Benton played in all 12 regular-season games and posted 4 1/2 sacks, 10 tackles for loss and 35 total tackles, all personal-best marks at UW. - Journal Sentinel
