I heard this guy on the radio: Bjoern Werner. He's a German how played 3 years of football at Florida State and is now a top-10 type prospect for the upcoming draft. I believe he played for the Berlin Adler club team when he was younger.

He's a big kid, 6-4/255 lbs and plays Defensive End. It will be interesting to see where he goes and how he does at the new level.

Yes, he played for Berlin Adler Youth Team before he went to FSU.
I saw him win the German Football League Junior Championship against the Cologne Falcons 2009.
Never had guessed he would become such a high value prospect.
He was very good, no doubt, but so were several other on the field that day.

He did all things right to get into college by playing often in the US as exchange student to get the scout attention.

That sounds really good, if thats true, this weekend are the combine so we can see if he is really that good to be an top 10 prospect

Would he be the second german player in the NFL after Sebastian Vollmer? or if there are more Player?

There is Markus Kuhn and Tom Nütten has a german mother and did grow up in germany.
Several others did try to get into the nFL when they were part of the World League / NFL Europe, but non made it to the final roster.

According to some mock drafts, Werner is the top DE prospect.

Some are saying that Barkevious Mingo (DE) goes at #2 to Jacksonville and that Werner will be the 2nd DE to go at #5 to Detroit.
