  • Stock is UpStock is Up: Displayed great cover skills at NFL Combine
  • Declared early for the 2005 NFL Draft; Invited to 2005 NFL Combine.
  • CollegeFootballNews.com - "Bullocks is a big hitter with a great nose for the football. He isn't huge, but he'll be a late first day steal for someone."
  • Scouts will have to chose whether they believe the Josh Bullocks they saw in 2003 or 2004. A number of factors such as injuries and coaching changes are an obvious considerations. However, another possible consideration is that in 2003 Josh excelled in Bo Pelini's Cover 2 defensive scheme- a scheme that popular with many NFL defenses.
  • Pro Day report from Gil Brandt of NFL.com: S Josh Bullocks worked out at the combine, running for times of 4.46 and 4.50. Here, he ran for 4.47 and 4.51. He added 13 reps and did all the position drills and looked very good.
  • Pro Day report from KFFL: "...worked out at the combine, but he opted to run again in the 40. Bullocks ran 4.46 and 4.50 in Indianapolis, but his times dropped very slightly to 4.47 and 4.51. He added 13 reps of 225 to his repertoire, all while looking very sharp during individual drills."
  • Following Nebraska's Pro Day, Bullocks worked out for the Green Bay Packers.
  • Bullocks had no less than eight defensive back coaches at his recent Pro Day... Atlanta, Dallas, New Orleans and the NY Jets have been showing additional interest in him... the Saints staff members spent time after the workout talking and meeting with him over dinner (PatsFans.com)
  • Vic Ketchman, jaguars.com senior editor: Bullocks, 6-0, 209, is the top free safety and figures to be drafted in the second half of round one. Bullocks is moving up boards. He's a traditional centerfielder who possesses outstanding ball skills and is good against the run. Bullocks shows a lot of coverage technique. He's smart and physical and runs a 4.5.
