Marvin Harrison Jr. would have had little to gain by working out at the NFL Scouting Combine, but the same is not true for the rest of Ohio State’s combine invitees.
Harrison’s workout would have drawn the biggest spotlight among Ohio State’s prospects – and among just about every prospect in Indianapolis – as there would have been significant interest in how fast the two-time All-American wide receiver would have run his 40-yard dash and how high and long he would have jumped. His decision to forgo working out at the combine is a logical one, though, because his draft stock can’t get much higher than it already is; he is already a near-unanimous pick to be the first non-quarterback drafted this year.
