In the midst of the pre-NCAA Tournament frenzy, we again pause to say hello to the NFL Scouting Combine.
Yes, the combine begins today, ensuring that in the next week legions of football-starved fans will bore others to tears by watching hours of workouts and breathless coverage over rumors that end up not mattering once the NFL draft begins.
But, hey, no judgment here. I watch the combine every year. I admit it.
Anyway, the first group of players for the 2019 combine – running backs, offensive linemen and kicking specialists – report to Indianapolis. Media sessions begin Thursday with on-field workouts begin Friday.
