Bosa, Ogbah deliver solid shows during NFL scouting combine

That was before he was suspended for Ohio State’s season opener against Virginia Tech (for reasons Bosa said he will discuss with National Football League teams privately), and before he was ejected from the Buckeyes’ Fiesta Bowl win over Notre Dame for a questionable targeting penalty. There have been many studies how predictive the Combine is on player’s success in the NFL. This is a good football player who will make whatever team that drafts him better.

Lynch is widely viewed as part of the second tier of quarterbacks in the 2016 draft class behind top QBs Carson Wentz and Jared Goff.

The NFL Scouting Combine is already underway in Indianapolis. Although he doesn’t have a first-round grade now, NFL Media’s Mike Mayock said Shepard was one of the most impressive pass-catchers at the Combine. They always seem to. The two terrorized college defenses with that speed and regularly went head-to-head on the practice field to determine who had the better set of wheels. But it’s also clear he’s not a finished product yet. But he’s a little bit of a project. “He just doesn’t have the resume right now because of a couple of down years”.

Other first-round possibilities at quarterback could include Connor Cook from Michigan State and Christian Hackenberg from Penn State.

“I’m taking what they do best, taking those jump balls away, making them catch shorter balls”. “I made pretty much every play thrown my way”. Ohio State asked Lee to play zone and man, covering everything from running backs to tight ends and slot receivers.

The buzz around Jackson started when he dropped a sub-4.4-second 40-yard dash on the Lucas Oil Stadium turf. Don’t be surprised to hear some other names join the conversation before April. Bosa ran an unofficial 4.89-second and 4.87-second 40-yard dashes, while DeForest Buckner ran unofficial 5.06 40-yard dashes both times. Today’s performance could move him solidly into the first round. “In five years from now, I’d say it beats the J.J. Watt and Marcell Dareus [2011] class. That’s what I’ll say”.

Jack wasn’t able to participate in on-field work as he continues to work his way back from an injury, but his draft stock continues to rise as well. Smith may not get that chance because he had major knee surgery seven weeks ago.

Crawley was one of three CU prospects invited to the Combine along with receiver Nelson Spruce and tackle Stephane Nembot.

Ohio State linebacker Darron Lee’s athleticism is one of his top strengths, but it’s hard to imagine anyone pegged him to run a faster 40-yard dash than Braxton Miller. He has been as fast as the high 4.5s on occasion in training.

– Oklahoma defensive end Charles Tapper had a good workout at the combine.
