Analyzing Florida Gators players in the NFL Combine and how their draft stock will be influenced in Indianapolis.
February 19, 2016Analyzing Florida Gators players in the NFL Combine and how their draft stock will be influenced.
The countdown is almost over. With the 2016 NFL Draft set to get underway in Chicago on April 28, all 32 – next year, New England – 31 general managers will be racking their brains trying to figure out who the right pick is with their first-round selections.
Part of that process is the NFL Combine, which is set to take place Feb. 23-29 at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
Plenty of Florida Gators have made their way to Indy in the past and shined bright. Dante Fowler Jr. did so literally by wearing one of the biggest, shiniest watches you’ll ever see while he ran the 40-yard dash.
There’s no guarantee this year’s crop will make running with bling a Florida tradition, but there are eight Gators invited to the NFL Combine, and all are looking to make moves up draft boards.
Below is how each Florida Gator’s draft stock will be influenced by their performance in Indy.
